Nothing in the world can make you any more whole than you already are. That’s the single insight that set Anna Debenham on her journey working with people in prison.

Anna is the founder of Insight Alliance, an organisation that helps incarcerated individuals turn their lives around. Anna’s realisation led her to stop putting her worth and value on anything outside of herself and to follow her intuition.

Anna's story shows us that we don't always have to pay attention to our feelings. By following our intuition and being in tune with our bodies, we can gain valuable insights that can guide us towards success. And by understanding our own minds and finding a feeling of peace within ourselves, we can navigate difficult situations with grace and resilience.

Things to consider

• We experience various feelings throughout the day, which are just sensations in our body. But we can interpret them in many ways and assign meaning.
• Recognising that we are not our thoughts and are not obliged to believe everything we think opens up enormous potential.
• And the other thing that she shared, But we don't have to believe everything we think about ourselves. So if you are sitting there thinking, well, I could never blah, blah, blah, or this is just not possible for me, do you really have to believe that thought? and if you didn't, what potential might get released in you? What ideas might be sparked in you? What could happen as a result?
