Send us Fan MailHave you ever had the feeling that your life looks right on the outside… but doesn’t quite feel right on the inside?Whether it’s your career, your relationships, or your identity, many of us reach a point where something feels off, like we’ve been living a version of ourselves that works… but isn’t really us.In this video, I explore the idea of the “true self” and the “false self”, not as something fake, but as a version of you that developed to survive, succeed, and belong.I talk about why this can come up in so many areas of life:– Changing career– Becoming a therapist– Being in therapy– Sexuality, indentity and coming outAt the heart of it, this is about the gap between who you really are… and who you’ve learned to be.I talk about:– Why we develop a “performative” self (fear and status)– The emotional cost of living out of alignment– How this shows up in career and identity– Reconnecting with who you really are– Why finding the right people matters✅ If you're thinking about exploring therapy generally, I’d love to hear from you and you’re very welcome to get in touch with me via my website (https://www.thistrustedplace.co.uk) to find out more or to arrange an initial conversation.🎯 1:1 Mentoring & ConsultancyThinking about changing career to become a therapist?
