Transforming shame into love, joy and freedom

When I was living with severe anxiety and depression I believed that everyone I knew either hated me or just tolerated me because they felt sorry for me.

I couldn’t believe that anybody actually liked me, I didn’t think I had anything to offer. I felt like such a waste of space, a burden, a nuisance, a disappointment.

I felt so trapped in this hole of self-loathing and shame for everything that I was.

I never considered that any of these beliefs about myself were untrue, they were my reality, I had been thinking them since I was a child, how could I think to question them?

Thankfully I did question them, when I first heard someone talking publicly about their experience with anxiety and depression and for the first time I felt this glimmer of hope. Maybe I don’t have to live in this hell. Maybe I can be happy and be of value in this world.

This lead me on a journey to so much healing and growth as I transformed my life into one full of so much happiness, joy, love and freedom.

I have so many wonderful loving relationships, best of all I have a great relationship with me, I love who I am and what I have to offer the world. I feel so much gratitude for my life and the wisdom I have gained.

I am extremely grateful for the wisdom and support that I can now offer to others. Supporting women to feel empowered and free to be themselves, to love their life and feel happy and joyful and full of love for life – this brings me so much joy.

Love and gratitude
