Oversharing Waring oversharingwaring

After a prolonged pause, I'm backkkk! In this episode I discuss relationships that perpetuate our negative views of ourselves and how difficult it is to step back from them.

This episode explains a large part of how my anxiety manifested itself. T/W: Sexual assault. The part of my life that I have hidden from so many for 25 years. Sexual violence against women is rampant and often we don't speak about our experiences but we're far from alone. Listen wherever you get your podcasts.

Realising that a relationship is no longer serving you can spark a terrible kind of grief. I've spent a lot of this year coming to terms with the detrimental impact of the way my Mum treats me. It's painful to admit but I hadn't wanted that to be my reality. Grief can also allow for healing and can help you to move forwards with a clearer sense of what you want from your relationships with people. I hope you enjoy this episode x

How has your mental health been impacted throughout the pandemic? In this episode I talk about processing living through a global crisis and how as an anxious person, I've navigated the past two years.Talking is so important and we all have own story of living in a pandemic. Sharing fears, admitting to not always coping are all part of our collective experience. Don't be afraid to say you're having a hard time. Big love xx

Are you conscious of when you are beginning to take steps to heal without even actually trying? Allow yourself those small wins and use it to push yourself forward.I'm trying to reframe previously ingrained behaviour and ways of thinking that don't serve me anymore. As my anxiety makes its self known , I talk in the episode about difficult conversations, wanting to rewrite the past and learning to trust my intuition.

In this episode I talk about a particularly difficult subject - not having the relationship I so longed for with my Mum. It's a heartfelt episode where I discuss a complicated, often unforgiving upbringing. It sometimes takes a lot to admit how you really feel when the reality is that you so don't want it to be your reality. But there's strength in admitting that you're struggling. Taking time to acknowledge your true feelings and giving yourself to process them can only be a good thing....
