“Maybe I Got This Wrong…”

Okay… I’m going to be completely honest with you.

The weather is absolutely awful today, so I’ve decided that today is my full day of healing.

I normally do one or two little sessions on myself every day, but once a week, I like to do a much deeper, longer session.

And one of my absolute favourite things to work with is generational trauma.

Now… this is where I have to admit something.

When I did my generational trauma session on myself, with a friend, and with two other clients, we had some HUGE breakthroughs.

And I thought…

‘You know what? I need to create a whole day around this.’

So I created a full-day healing retreat.

And honestly?

I thought it would sell out within a day or two.

Because normally, that's what happens with my events.

And instead…

crickets.

I had one lovely lady book.

And at first I was thinking…

‘What have I done wrong?’

And then I realised…

Maybe I hadn't explained it properly.

Because the words ‘generational trauma’ can sound a little bit… woo-woo.

And I don't mean that negatively at all.

But if you don't understand what it actually means, you might hear the words and think we're going to sit around talking about your ancestors and doing something mystical.

And that is NOT what I mean.

So let me explain it like I'm explaining it.

Imagine your grandmother grew up in a home where she had to be constantly on guard.

Maybe there was violence.

Maybe there was neglect.

Maybe emotions weren't allowed.

Maybe she learned that being quiet kept her safe.

She grows up.

She has children.

And without even realising it, some of those survival patterns can influence how she parents.

Then her children grow up with those patterns.

And they can carry them into their own relationships and their own parenting.

And suddenly you have a family where nobody actually knows where a particular pattern started…

but everybody is living with it.

That's one part of what we mean when we talk about intergenerational trauma.

And this isn't just something I've made up for a retreat.

There is actual research looking at the relationship between parental trauma and the wellbeing of their children, including psychological, social and biological pathways.

And researchers are still studying exactly how these effects can travel across generations.

And here's the bit I really care about…

You don't have to blame your parents.

You don't have to blame your grandparents.

You don't even have to know exactly what happened generations ago.

Sometimes the work is simply recognising:

‘Hang on…

Why do I react like this?’

‘Why do I struggle with this?’

‘Why does this pattern keep showing up in my relationships?’

‘And is all of this actually mine?’

Because sometimes…

we are carrying things that didn't start with us.

And that's exactly why I created this day.

26th September.

10am–5pm.

Rectory House, Chapel Ash, Wolverhampton.

A full day dedicated to exploring generational patterns, releasing what you're ready to let go of, reconnecting with yourself, and creating something different moving forward.

The investment is £111.

And honestly, after what I've experienced personally and with clients, I really believe this work deserves to be understood properly.

So…

if you've ever felt like you're repeating patterns you don't understand…

maybe this is something worth exploring.

And if a full retreat feels like too much, I also offer one-to-one sessions where we can explore this work together.

And today?

I'm going to put my phone down, get on my mat, and do my own healing.

Because I don't just teach this stuff.

I do the work too. ❤️

Releasing Generational Trauma

A Full-Day Transformational Healing Retreat

Saturday 5th September 2026 | 10:00am–5:00pm
Rectory House, 1 Chapel Ash, Wolverhampton, WV3 0TZ

What if some of what you have been carrying was never yours to begin with?

Join us for a powerful, immersive day exploring generational trauma, family patterns and the emotional burdens that can be carried from one generation to the next.

This is not simply a day of sitting and listening.

This is an interactive healing experience where you will be invited to explore, feel, release and reconnect — with yourself and with the people around you.

✨ The Power of Multiplied Healing

There is something incredibly powerful about healing in a room where everyone is involved in everyone's healing.

You won't be watching someone else do their work from the sidelines.

Through carefully guided exercises, somatic practices, breathwork, reflection, connection and shared experiences, we create a space where each person's journey contributes to the healing of the whole group.

You may arrive carrying something you have struggled to put into words.

You may leave with a completely different relationship with it.

During this transformational day, we will explore:

🌿 What generational trauma actually is and how it can influence our thoughts, emotions, relationships and behaviours.

🌿 Family patterns and survival responses that can continue across generations.

🌿 The difference between what belongs to us and what we may have learned, absorbed or carried from those before us.

🌿 How the body can hold emotional experiences and protective responses.

🌿 Somatic movement and body-based practices to help you connect with what you are feeling.

🌿 Breathwork and guided healing journeys.

🌿 Deep reflection and interactive exercises.

🌿 Releasing old emotional burdens and creating space for something new.

🌿 Breaking patterns rather than continuing to repeat them.

🌿 Reconnecting with your own identity, voice and sense of choice.

And throughout the day, you will be supported to move at your own pace. You never have to share anything you are not comfortable sharing.

💜 This is for you if...

You have noticed patterns in your family that seem to repeat.

You find yourself reacting in ways you don't fully understand.

You feel like you have been carrying responsibility, emotions or expectations that don't feel entirely yours.

You want to understand yourself on a deeper level.

You are ready to explore the patterns you inherited — without blame, shame or judgement.

Or perhaps you simply feel that something needs to change, and you are ready to begin.

A day of learning. A day of connection. A day of healing.

You don't need to know exactly what you are coming to release.

You don't need to have all the answers.

You simply need to arrive with an open mind and a willingness to explore.

You are not responsible for healing everything that came before you.

But you can choose what you carry forward.

And sometimes, one person choosing to break a pattern can change what becomes possible for everyone who comes after them.

When grief training becomes more than a certificate…

I’ve just come back from an event where I was talking to people about my Holistic Grief & Loss Support Practitioner Training.

Someone said to me:

“I’ve literally just completed a grief training with someone else.”

And honestly? I didn’t think too much of it.

Until one of my students was standing there and said:

“Your training is TRANSFORMATIONAL.”

And that’s exactly what I want people to understand. ❤️

My training isn’t about memorising the stages of grief, reading a few theories, learning some mindfulness techniques and getting a certificate at the end.

Because let’s be honest… you can Google a lot of that.

My training is about transformation.

It’s practical.
It’s experiential.
It’s about understanding what grief REALLY looks like in real life.

Because grief isn’t just bereavement.

Grief can be:
💔 Relationship breakdown
💔 Job or financial loss
💔 A health diagnosis
💔 Childlessness
💔 Pet loss
💔 Retirement
💔 Life transitions
💔 Identity changes
💔 Loss of a future you thought you were going to have

And before I teach you how to support and transform somebody else’s life…

we transform YOU first.

Because I don’t just teach grief from a textbook.

I know grief.

I’ve lived through it.
I’ve experienced the devastation.
I know how deeply loss can affect a person.

And I bring that lived experience, professional knowledge and practical tools into my training.

And no… my teaching is NOT boring.

I want you finishing each week thinking:

“I can’t wait for the next one!”

Men of Wolverhampton… this one’s for you.

On Tuesday 4th August, from 2pm to 3pm, I’m running a FREE pilot session for a brand-new men’s group.

And if you know me, you already know… I don’t do average. I don’t do lukewarm sessions. I create experiences that move people.

This isn’t about sitting in a circle talking about your feelings.

We’re going to combine fascia release, body-based movement, and powerful breathwork to help release the tension and stress your body has been holding onto.

As a sports therapist and massage therapist with over 11 years of experience, alongside 6 years of emotional healing and trauma-informed coaching, I’ve brought everything I’ve learned together to create my own unique method.

This session is part of a pilot for a grant application. If we’re successful, these will become weekly sessions for men in Wolverhampton.

So I need your help.

If you’ve been feeling stressed, overwhelmed, physically tight, or like you’ve been carrying the weight of the world on your shoulders, come and experience something different.

It’s completely FREE, but spaces are limited. I have room for around 10 more men.

Be one of the first men in Wolverhampton to experience this unique approach.

Book your place using the link below, and let’s show that men need spaces like this too.

I’ll see you there.
