The pain of loss shouldn’t be stuffed down and avoided, it should be felt at the deepest level, but only when you’re ready and only at the pace you can handle. Everyone experiences loss differently so what works for one person may not work for you.

In this episode, I help you connect with the deeper layers underneath the loss so that perhaps there can be some small release or relief. This isn’t about healing, it’s about connecting. And sometimes that’s all that’s needed to start healing.

If you make bad decisions or keep getting results you don’t want, it’s time to tackle that problem once and for all. If you aren’t making decisions based on what’s most important to you at the deepest level, you may drive off the cliff one too many times.
