Do you ever tell someone you’re fine and then feel hurt that they didn’t realise you weren’t OK? 🤔
When you’ve spent years being the capable one, people often believe you.
They don’t push.
They don’t ask again.
They assume you’ll tell them if you need something.
And then you’re left feeling lonely, resentful or disappointed that nobody noticed what you worked hard to hide.
If honesty used to lead to criticism, dismissal or conflict, keeping the focus on somebody else may have helped you stay connected.
But that same habit can make it very difficult for people to know when you need them now.
Someone turns towards you and you make a joke.
You reassure them.
You change the subject.
You give them the version of you that needs very little.
Relational work gives you a chance to notice those moments while they’re actually happening, with other people there to respond differently.
During Meeting the Inner Child, Cam, Gabriel and I will help you explore what you expect from other people when you’re vulnerable, and what happens when you don’t have to hide, minimise or move away from what you need.
The group is limited to 10 to 12 participants so there’s time and space to work with what comes up.

The early-bird price is $695 until October 15. After that, it will be $795.
