Currently Out of Office (for now).
I want to cut through the shame that has been building inside me and find the words to openly admit that, as a newly qualified therapist, something I worked incredibly hard to achieve and invested so much into, I, too, am drowning. Hard.
It is with a heavy and sad heart 💔 that I share that I will be
🙏Temporarily CLOSING my Hypnotherapy practice🙏
in order to focus on building real stability for myself and my family and seriously tending to my own sense of security.
The honest truth is that I can no longer balance the complexity of building and managing a practice from the ground up with all its highs, lows, and uncertainties alongside growing family responsibilities, financial hardship, a recession, a war, my own health, my family’s health, and the care required for my relationship.
Right now, my cup is completely and utterly empty. In fact, it feels almost broken and leaking heavily.
It would feel irresponsible for me to hold someone else’s cup while mine is not at least somewhat full.
For the time being, I will only be accepting work that nourishes me in equal parts financially and creatively, while I step back, lay low, and figure out how to balance the responsibilities that are rapidly accumulating in my life.
I am the only child of a single, aging parent and over the past few weeks, my priorities have shifted dramatically with only chosen family to support me.
I now find myself learning to swim in the strange waters of legal systems, finances, medical care, logistics and the bureaucracy that surrounds caring for older adults. 🌀🙏
Right now, I feel like a grain of sand. 🐚
Ocean waves my friends 🌊
To be continued.
