I was recently listening to this podcast where ex homicide detective Gary Jubelin was interviewing another ex homicide detective who he started his career with at the police academy. They both agreed that back then, they entered the force thinking this would be their life long career. At first they didn’t want to take a single day off as it was all new and exciting, they got to see the kind of stuff most people only see…
I was listening to Danny Morel interview therapist Terri Cole this week and she was listing out the traits of high functioning codependents (HFC’s) and my brain said: OMG THAT’S MEEEEEE!!!

I’ve done some EFT (tapping) and yoga for burnout which…
How would your life be if you truly loved, honoured and respected yourself? If you honoured your needs each day? If you lived in integrity with your values in each moment? I find this is a really useful – and often – confronting question to ask my clients, one they get pretty immediate answers to. I work with a lot of very natural “helper” types – I’m one of those too.
