I’ve had a lot of new people follow my content lately so I thought it was time to re-introduce myself! 👋🏼 The woman I am today has run a business as a coach and energy practitioner/Reiki teacher for 21 years. Alongside that, I spent 18 years as a parole officer across London, Sydney and Perth, specialising in serious family violence. I’m in an incredible, loving and supportive relationship with the best human I’ve ever met. 🥰 And most days I’m…

So here we are! REAL EXAMPLES (FROM MY CLIENTS) 🚩 I’m not talking about the obvious red flags like cheating or abuse… I’m talking about the sneaky…
