This might sound ‘sacred’ but for the purposes of this blog it lies much more in the realms of the profane. When we give, be it gifts on a birthday, or time to a colleague or assistance to a stranger, we generally receive in return. That grin of gratitude, or the sigh of relief, or […]
Trusting that in the spaces, whilst it feels dark and winter-esque and full or dormancy, tiny tendrils of new ideas and plots and desires are reaching tentatively outwards. Later they will extend out into the world. In the meantime’s, let them secretly grow and whisper your encouragement. Wait for them to ‘become’. To learn more […]
I begin this blog with a warning. “Don’t try and change everything.” Why do I say this? Because of bitter experience! After festive excesses I make a million pledges as I groan over my stuffed stomach and worry over my empty bank account. I resolve to eat less, earn more, be grateful for what I […]

Honestly, I feel a foot taller after an hour with my supervisor. I see my clients leaving sessions with me, similarly uplifted. Good supervision meets so many needs on so many levels and I grow to love it! The celebration of sharing successes, the unpacking and unburdening of shame, the exploration of new techniques, the […]
