Deconstructing You - Life Unravelled in Five Minutes, Dark Night of the Soul
by Alice Readman April 02, 2024
I was recently interviewed by Elinor Moshe on her podcast Deconstructing You - Life Unravelled in Five Minutes, Dark Night of the Soul
Alice Readman has had a varied career, from her 20’s as a bass player in the UK indie band “the auteurs”, to retraining in photography and working for top UK magazine companies. In her 40’s she retrained as a graphic designer and started a married life.
Her life completely changed one day when her 5 year marriage came to a sudden end, her husband announced he was having an affair and no longer wanted their 2 adopted children; they were meeting the next day.
Alice suffered from acute stress and alongside a spiritual awakening and mental breakdown. She was eventually sectioned in an NHS hospital for 28 days. This marked the beginning of her new life.
She has recently published her book, I Am Alice, Break up, Breakdown, Breakthrough, telling her own deeply personal story of transformation and growth. She wrote the book as writing and journaling had been a tool that
had supported her through her dark night of the soul.
