About this Talk
I ignored my true self for many years, for a myriad of reasons but that all ended in 2017 when I lost a lot of the sight in my right eye. After medical intervention, I regained most of the sight but an unravelling had begun that I couldn't stop.
That journey led me to face what I hadn't wanted to see. How being the child of an alcoholic had affected me so much more than just giving me the drive to get away. How my childhood experiences had led me to people-pleasing as a survival strategy but as an adult, working as lawyer in big city law firms, they led me to burn out and eventually leaving the profession. How I buried my true, sensitive self because it didn't feel safe to be me and that led me to become a very angry, frustrated, unfulfilled adult.
Finding my true self - my sensitive and bold, wise and curious, deep and funny and so much more self - has helped me back into the legal profession, helped me start my coaching business where I get to work with inspiring sensitive people on their own journey of self-journey, helped me have the confidence to share my story in the hope that it inspires others to find their true self and helped me find so much joy in my life that I get to share with my family and friends.
I'm looking forward to sharing this talk with you and I hope you enjoy it.
