sessions
for the broken soul
Sometimes, though, our challenges are deeply experienced, with an intensity that can feel like we’re in pieces. We come through our crisis to survey the wreckage of our existential storm, with the dawning realisation that the clean-up work might be even harder than the crisis itself.
It is at times like these when help would be useful. Not someone to tell you what to do, or to do the rebuilding for you. This is your wreckage, and the new life yours to reimagine. You are your own person, unique in your strengths and glorious in all your scars; a person with agency - even during times when it is hard to believe.
Rather, ‘help’ in the form of a sideman - a supporting player to the main act, which is you.
I’m here to support you as you map your new way forward,
in whatever journey you need to take,
to get to where you want to be.
as souls go, we know they don’t break.
Which journey are you on?
Soulful Transitions
Transitions are tricky bastards. Usually sneaking up on us, forcing us to confront our futures with a bewildering “what now”, quickly followed by our feeble protest of “but…” when possibilities start to reveal themselves..
No-one likes to give up what feels familiarly comforting, however thorny the familiarity is.
the Evolution jam
Something we’re not told is that life is a marathon improv session. We’re not told this because that takes away all the buzzy ideas we like to have that helps us believe we are in control, or have the ability to be agents of your future.
Sure, we do. Have agency. Kind of.
The truth is, the very minute we come into contact with another human being, especially one we are romantically involved with, self-awareness, knowledge and emotional resources get tested.
What can we do? Get comfortable with the wobbliness of improvisation, because great music awaits.
forgiveness progressions
I don’t want to mislead you. It’s less about forgiveness than reconciliation; and I am a firm believer that they are not mutually exclusive.
We can absolutely reconcile in a healthy, productive way without forgiveness. This is where definitions become useful.
My research was on this topic, and much of my life lived through the struggle of this seeming dichotomy until I, well, stopped struggling.
We have familial relations to maintain, work life to make less horrid and children to raise.
soul pharmacy
Not all self-medication practices are bad.
Life is never that binary.
This is where we micro-dose with ideas, words, affirmations, suggestions, tips,
art, philosophy, psychology, ancient wisdom and audacious thinking.
Join the fun.
Let's play
Take your step and and book me.
Like a jazz improvisation, we will blend experience, art, philosophy, literature, psychology, and the essence of humanity in every session.
Let’s play.
