I’ve recently had a huge realisation about myself – and it’s agonisingly difficult to swallow. I am controlling, I am an enabler, and I’ve been acting like a martyr. For years. As a result, I have grasped the twisted thread and followed it backwards – and I can completely understand how and why I became […]

(You can read this post or watch the Youtube video version: https://youtu.be/hqw_j1kLf0Y) I am sure you’ll agree that the human race has reached a crucial point in its existence. And that what is needed now, possibly more than at any other time in living memory, is for us human souls to wake up and think […]

(You can read this post or watch the YouTube video: https://youtu.be/upFJmQTd_Dw) When you came into this world, you didn’t come as a completely blank sheet of paper yet to be written on.

Our first experience of rejection often occurs in childhood — and it can be lethal. We might find ourselves shunned, ignored, or even abused by those who are supposed to love and protect us. We don’t understand what is occurring because we’re young and vulnerable, so we assume that we must be stupid, ugly, or unlovable. We […]

“You just need to be more positive!” This is a statement that has increasingly irked me. You can even imagine the tone of voice used, without needing to hear the words. Slightly high-pitched, encouraging in a patronising way, as if addressing a child. No adult is going to respond well to this — especially when […]

She was 19 years old when she stood atop the highest canal aqueduct in the world, placed her phone and keys on the floor, climbed the railing — and let go. A group who were boating along the canal at that moment witnessed the horrifying event and will probably be haunted by it for the […]
