Send us a text In this episode, I explore the painful and often overlooked experience of being stuck in limbo—that in-between place of waiting, longing, and hoping for something or someone to change. Whether it’s a relationship, a job, or an unresolved emotional space, I walk you through how we give away our power in limbo—and how we can take it back. You’ll learn how to name what you’re waiting for, why longing creates suffering, and what it really means to reclaim your freedom. If you’re fe...

Send us a text Even when your heart and mind align, the path you choose can still lead to unexpected pain. In this episode, I explore why alignment doesn’t always mean ease—but instead, growth. How do you trust yourself when the right decision still hurts? Let’s talk about it.

Send us a text In this deeply personal episode, I share the journey of how I came to realise I had unknowingly given my power away. For a long time, I felt emotionally stuck and didn’t understand why—until a conversation with a close friend opened my eyes. I talk about how easy it is to place our healing, validation, and worth in someone else’s hands without even realizing it. This episode is about recognising those subtle patterns, understanding where they come from, and beginning the slow, ...

Send us a text In this reflective episode, I explored the deeper purpose behind addiction and lifelong struggles—what if these challenges aren’t here just to break us, but to shape us? Through the lens of self-mastery, resilience, and spiritual growth, I invite you to consider addiction as a powerful teacher rather than a lifelong enemy. Whether you’re navigating your own battle or supporting someone who is, this episode offers compassion, insight, and hope for the road ahead.

Life has a way of breaking us, but in those broken places, we can find our greatest strength. Inspired by a quote from A Farewell to Arms, this episode explores the raw reality of pain, loss, and rejection-and how healing, though slow and messy, transforms us into something even stronger. If you're in a season of breaking, know that you're not alone. Strength isn’t about pretending to be okay; it’s about facing your pain and allowing yourself to grow through it. Hold on. You will rise.

And here we go ... I woke up at 3:24 AM to publish this. I considered re-recording it, but I did not want to lose the raw authenticity of the moment. This episode is a heartfelt reflection on the past year - my journey of resilience, healing, and growth. I hope you enjoy it, and I would love to hear your thoughts. A few things to note: The podcast isnt called Diary of a Therapist - turns out that name was already taken (rookie mistake, I know). Please forgive the slip-up!I tend to speak a lit...
