Today I attended the final Connected Therapist group session of 2025, facilitated by the wonderful therapist and trainer,
I connected with Angela earlier this year and feel genuinely grateful for the learning, support, and healing I’ve experienced through her work and the spaces she holds.
During today’s guided healing, a meaningful experience arose for me. In meditation, I was met by a woman from my ancestral line who held my hands and said, “You are gold.” Shortly afterwards, the song Gold began playing in my mind, reinforcing a deep sense of remembrance and worth.

What stayed with me was the reminder of inherent worth; something that can easily be overlooked when we are supporting others or holding responsibility.

With sincere thanks to Angela Connolly for her guidance, integrity, and the thoughtful, safe containers she creates for therapists.

One of the hardest beliefs people carry is ‘I’m not doing enough.’
I see how heavy that belief can be.
And I also see what happens when it softens, the breath returns, shoulders drop, something settles.
You don’t need to be fixed to be supported.
You’re allowed to come exactly as you are.

Many people come to counselling believing they need to be stronger, more confident, or less sensitive.
What I often see is something different.
What helps most is slowing down, being met where they are, and feeling safe enough to stop holding everything together.
That’s the kind of space I offer.

Online & Telephone sessions available.
In-person sessions are available in January.

What has this week taught you? 🤍

I’ve been noticing how much the world tells us to do, achieve, push, and “live your best life.” And sometimes, that pace just doesn’t fit us - it makes our chest tight, our mind spin, our body ache.
I want to remind myself (and you) that it’s ok to slow down. To come back to your breath. To feel your feet on the ground. To let your heart and body guide your next step instead of rushing into the noise.
Softness isn’t weakness. It’s strength. It’s what helps us stay steady when everything else is moving too fast. It’s the clarity that comes before action, the presence that makes our choices aligned, and the calm that lets us lead and hold space - for ourselves and for others - without burning out.
So if you’re feeling pulled, pressured, or off-balance today, remember: soft doesn’t mean small. Slow doesn’t mean lazy. Presence comes first, action comes second. Your body, your heart, and your breath know the way home.
You are enough. You are safe. You are soft and strong.

Some days ask more of you than others.
And on those days, it’s easy to think you should be coping better… showing up stronger… getting it “right.”
But grace doesn’t look like perfection.
It looks like pausing long enough to notice the tightness in your chest.
It looks like allowing the tears that arrive without warning.
It looks like choosing softness when your inner voice turns sharp.
Grace is letting yourself be human.
A little undone.
A little tired.
A little unsure.
It’s remembering that you are learning your way through things you’ve never had to face before… and still choosing to meet yourself gently.
You deserve to be held with the same warmth you offer everyone else.
You deserve room to breathe.
You deserve to rest in the truth that you’re doing the best you can with the heart you have.
If today feels heavy, let grace be the place you land.
Let it soften the edges.
Let it remind you that you’re worthy of compassion, especially from yourself 🧡

Healing isn’t always dramatic.
For sensitive people, it often happens quietly; in the little choices you make each day:
• pausing before reacting
• saying what you really need
• letting yourself rest without guilt
These moments may feel small, but they matter. They’re proof that you’re growing, even if it doesn’t feel obvious yet.
Take a moment today to notice one small shift in yourself. It counts. 💛
