find your path forward…
It’s exhausting to think like this all the time.
It comes in waves. Sometimes you’re sailing along fine.
Others, you’re treading water in a sea of negative thoughts.
It’s easy to feel like you’re drifting or even lost in the overwhelm of this relentless sea.
Coaching gives you the tools to come up for air.
To stop and breathe. And to anchor in the present.
To realise that you have what you need to navigate the turbulent waters of your mind.
It’s simple really.
Your emotions are an indication that your needs are not being met.
Your basic human needs.
The underlying psychological, emotional, and social support that we all need to stay afloat.
Understanding you have these basic needs offers a beacon of hope.
A guide to follow as we dive below the surface to explore why you think and feel the way you do.
When you discover how to get your needs met, you no longer feel like you’re drowning.
Your mind is calmer. Your perspective shifts.
And as your focus moves from inward and downward to outward and upward…
You see further and can finally move forward.
Towards a wider horizon.
a bit about me…
Stop for a moment and breathe.
I know what it’s like to be “in it.”
Deep.
Swimming against the tide.
I know how it feels to wake up to that familiar voice or “inner critic” - I call mine my chimp.
It’s always there in the background- judging and criticising you, overthinking and analysing, doubting the motives of others, and comparing you to them.
Nothing is ever good enough!
It’s natural for me to lack confidence, feel insecure, and fear rejection.
To look around at others and see that there is more to life than how I am experiencing it.
For as long as I can remember, I have searched for the missing piece to escape the dark, stormy thoughts and escape the self-sabotage.
To find happiness.
Learning the concept of basic needs has shown me that there is nothing wrong with me.
And there’s nothing wrong with you.
In some area of your life, in some way, your basic needs are unmet.
When you listen to what your emotions are trying to communicate, you will find the missing piece that can support you to move forward.
With the strength and resources to not only survive the ever-changing tides of life but to thrive in an open sea of possibilities.
“Michelle was very good at identifying areas where I was not clear in my thinking and challenged my processes.
By the end of the session, I had some SMART goals and clearly outlined steps for success.”
