I think one of the biggest lies high-achievers tell themselves is:โจโ๐โ๐ข ๐๐ช๐จ๐ฉ ๐จ๐ฉ๐ง๐๐จ๐จ๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐ช๐จ๐ ๐ ๐๐๐ง๐.โ
And whilst thereโs truth in that, thereโs also a point where chronic stress stops being passion and starts becoming survival mode.
๐๐ปโโ๏ธ That was me in teaching.
I was constantly overwhelmed, emotionally drained and so used to being โonโ that slowing down felt uncomfortable - even guilty.
The thing is, I didnโt leave teaching because I hated it. I actually loved being in the classroom and working with my team of teachers and TAs.
โจI left because I couldnโt ignore what it was doing to my mind and body anymore.
And honestly, I donโt think I wouldโve had the courage to make that decision without Hypnotherapy.
Not because it magically fixed everything.
But because it helped me quieten the mental noise, stop catastrophising, regulate my nervous system and trust myself again.
๐ก It helped me realise that my worth wasnโt tied to how much I could push through.
Now, I work with teachers, professionals, parents and overwhelmed teenagers who feel exactly how I did:
โจ๐ Stuck in fight or flight
๐ Exhausted but unable to switch off
๐ And wondering why they canโt seem to โcopeโ anymore.
