I recently started reading a book for the second time called “Yes Man” by Danny Wallace. 📖 I first read this book in my 20’s when I was living in London, and the book is also set in London. This book is a hilarious, chaotic memoir about what happens when a man decides to say “yes” to literally everything for a year. After being stuck in a rut after a couple of break ups, becoming cynical, and saying “no”…
I recently posted this reel on my Coach Carly page and Sue commented “more about the fawning experiences please, so here we go!

Here…
I’ll never forget this one client at my old job in Corrections. I was supervising a client on a Court Order once – not my usual guy, just filling in for a colleague – and it was evident to me straight away he was in psychosis. 🫨 I’ve worked with many people who are in psychosis the majority of the time, and when you work with someone consistently you know what their baseline is – as in, you can…
Feeling “safe” isn’t just about locking your doors at night or carrying your keys like Wolverine claws in a dark car park (although, let’s be honest, we’ve all done it). 🔑 Safety goes way deeper than that.
