Imposter Syndrome Is a Trauma Response — Here’s What No One Tells You

 

I had no idea that Imposter Syndrome was rooted in a trauma response.

I just thought I needed more confidence, a better mindset, or another qualification.

I was doing all the things — personal development, vision boards, affirmations, yet, the fear of being “found out” would creep in every time I upleveled.

And here’s the thing

That dread you may feel before you present your work, raise your prices, or step into a new role


That anxiety in your chest before you post, speak, or lead
That isn’t just a mindset issue, 
It’s your nervous system in survival mode.

Imposter syndrome isn’t a personal flaw — it’s a protective response stored deep in your body.

Seriously I know how you feel, I remember it well.

It doesn’t whisper. It roars.

It tells you to overwork, over-deliver, and over-prove — just in case someone sees through you.
Just in case someone realises you're not as good as they think.
Just in case that old, buried belief — “I’m not good enough” — turns out to be true.

It’s...

New Beginnings

I love a new beginning, do you?

People generally don’t like change so the thought of a new beginning maybe daunting to you, but, actually it can be totally refreshing.

 

What does a new beginning even mean? Well to me it’s a new way of being, a new chapter, an opportunity to reinvent ourselves. An opportunity to upgrade and advance what we think and how we behave. 

 

What does a new beginning mean to you?
Well here is what it could mean and how it would appear in your life;

 

A new kinder way of talking to yourself, this would result in you feeling calmer and more connecting. You would be able to enjoy life more as you would be allowing yourself to embody the richness of life.

 

A new daily forgiveness practice.  This would show up as you being easier on yourself when you made a mistake therefore your energy would improve.

 

A new and improved way of eating.  You would no longer sabotage your health with food and you would more easily find peace with your physical body.

Self-Love Day - 13th February

We spend so much of our lives focusing on the love that we get from others that we forget to focus on the love that we have for ourselves. In fact, do we even consider this?

 

When I was a young girl people would say ‘who do you think you are?’ or ‘she loves herself too much’. I believe that society teaches us to be small, not to love ourselves, to be seen and not heard and then when we reach adulthood we have to learn how to love ourselves from the inside out! Let me tell you, from personal experience… it is not easy!

 

Here are a few tips to use to check-in on your own self-love..

 

Do you carve out time in your day to make sure that you are able to have some ‘alone’ time?

Have you considered what self-love really is?
How do you know when you are there?

Are there times in your day, week, month when you feel like you love yourself less than you could?

 

The saying goes How can you expect someone else to love you when you don’t love yourself?’

 

How do you show yourself th...

Disconnect from the world. Reconnect to yourself.  

 

 

The power of the human mind and body is underestimated. Society programmes us not to believe in our innate power and wisdom.

 

Our bodies have the ability to heal. 

 

Our minds have the ability to create. 

 

And yet most of us feel like we are missing something, like maybe we are not 'there' yet, even though we don’t have an idea of where ‘there’ is. This manifests in stress and anxiety and a lack of confidence or direction. It can also manifest into bad eating habits, feelings of unworthiness and lack of motivation.

 

When you have the opportunity to STOP, to arrive in your body and make peace with your mind - miracles can happen. 

 

It is a wonderful place to be but it takes effort, it takes work. 

 

In May 2022, I will be holding my next retreat at Oakmead in Sharnbrook, Bedfordshire, UK.

 

Let me hold the space for you.

 

During this retreat, let me guide you through yoga practices, meditations, soul-aligned coaching sessions, breath work, soul healing and so ...

Meditation and Hypnosis

I use both meditation and hypnosis for my personal practice and my clients. Meditation and hypnosis are used for self-help and general wellbeing. But what is the difference?

 

Meditation daily is non-negotiable for me. It allows me to stay present and focused. I love meditation, daily practice in the comfort of your own home is accessible to the majority and can be done in 5 or 10 minutes.

 

Hypnotherapy helps to eliminate anything unresourceful which is holding us back from being our true magnificent selves. This helps us to master our thought patterns and generate new beliefs.

 

In my upcoming Rebirth Retreat I’m doing an Aligned Coaching Workshop where I will help my clients understand who they want to be moving forward and what they need to believe in order for them to get there. Through the powerful art of hypnosis we will work deep in the conscious mind, overcoming limitations and then embed new beliefs into the unconscious mind. This can be done safely and effectively in a...

What Is Smudging?..

People have been burning sage or smudging, as it is sometimes known, for hundreds of years. The practice dates back to prehistoric times and it has been used world-wide. This was back in the days of no phones or email, so how did these dudes know what they were doing?? People were on opposite sides of the world, all doing the same thing with the same plants, intriguing don’t you think?!

 

Sage cleanses the energy of an individual, a group or even a home or space. It leaves a herby smell lingering in the air where it has been burned.

 

Scientists have observed that sage kills up to 94 percent of airborne bacteria. It offers rapid delivery to the brain too which is said to assist with many kinds of healing, deeper levels of awareness and enhanced spiritual awareness. When burned sage releases negative ions which is linked to supporting positivity too.

 

I like rituals but I love rituals with intention. When you burn sage, create an intention, a positive intention. Energy is the sou...

Rebirth Yourself!

Rebirth..

 

What is it?

 

Rebirth is arriving in your physical body, feeling supported, connected, strong and healthy.

Rebirth is new beliefs, ones which will hold you in good stead when working on your goals and enable you to power through any setbacks.

Rebirth is discovering who you identify yourself to be and aligning your beliefs, behaviours, thoughts and habits to that which you want to become. It is powerful in every way. Rebirth with me and you get to have fun whilst you are doing it!

 

It is time that you allowed yourself to ‘rebirth’. 

What do you want to bring forth into the next part of your life? 

How would your life look if you were everything that you wanted to be?

 

I present to you:

’Rebirth Retreat’.

21st-24th January 2022, Oakmead, Sharnbrook.

I was in deep meditation when I was given the name ‘Rebirth’ for my retreat. I use so many healing modalities from yoga and meditation, nutrition and mindfulness, hypnotherapy, sound healing and breath work. Then ...

The Power of Sound Healing.

Sound healing is an ancient form of vibrational healing that is more mainstream than ever before, and I say YES to this! Whilst sound healing is coming to the forefront of our lives in the ‘health and healing’ industries, sound therapies go back as far as 40,000 years and are traced back to indigenous tribes through practicing chanting, Tibetan healing bowls, didgeridoos, chimes and more.  I believe that our ancestors knew so much more than us about non-invasive healing methodologies. The more holistic healing tools that we can adapt into our lives to help to prevent and heal mental, emotional, and physical stress the better!

 

Every single thing, including ourselves, has a vibrational frequency, therefore when we listen to a sound (or music) it impacts how our cells vibrate. I think we would all agree that sounds and music have the ability to change our ‘state’, this includes mental, emotional and physical states.  

 

Some of the benefits of sound healing include;

 

Boosting gen...

What is REBIRTH?

What is REBIRTH?

 

Rebirth is an opportunity to recreate. To choose who you become. To be the spiritually, mentally, emotionally and physically upgraded version of yourself.

 

When you access powerful new beliefs, advanced ways of thinking, tools to upgrade your physical self and a brand new connection with your spiritual self; you have a recipe for greatness.

 

It is time to let go of old thinking, unresourceful habits and judgemental inner critique and truly embody who you are.

 

I truly believe that when we integrate holistic practises, permanent, life changing and exciting transformations can happen in a short period of time.

 

It is time to take care of your energetic wellbeing - vibrational health

 

Who do you want to become in 2022?

What do you want to fill your year with?

What will you believe about yourself?

What new things do you want to discover?

 

I am beyond excited to announce the Rebirth Retreat.

How Forgiveness Impacts A Healing Journey

Let’s talk about forgiveness. WOW, it’s a biggy. One of the most touching things I’ve ever seen was a woman hugging and forgiving a murderer just as he was getting sent to prison to serve his time for the killing of her son. It moved me to tears.

 

Forgiveness is one of the golden thread principles that flows through all religions. I started introducing it into my therapy work a long time ago.

 

Forgiveness is something that requires daily or even weekly practice. It can transform anger, it can transform hurt, it can transform blame and also guilt and shame, especially when we forgive ourselves.

 

Forgiveness is powerful enough to transform anxiety (for all my anxiety warriors out there). Forgiveness is so powerful it can transform negative energy and with that it has the power to change lives. 

 

Psychologists generally define forgiveness as a conscious, deliberate decision to release feelings of resentment or vengeance toward a person or group who has harmed you, regardless o...
