the thing you are carrying
*
the thing you are carrying *
You want somewhere to put the thing you have been carrying around in your head.
The decision you keep circling.
The relationship you cannot make sense of.
The change you know is coming.
The pattern you can see perfectly clearly and still cannot seem to step out of.
The question underneath all the other questions.
You have thought about it.
Talked about it.
Made lists about it.
Perhaps asked three different people what they think you should do.
And somehow you are no closer to yourself.
Maybe you do not need another opinion.
There was a time
When you would not have been alone in this.
Somewhere in most of our lineages was someone who had lived enough life to know that sometimes what a woman needs is not an answer.
She needs time.
She needs attention.
She needs someone willing to sit beside the question without rushing to solve it.
The Wisdom Session is a modern version of that conversation.
Except I am not here to be the wise woman who tells you what to do.
The wisdom we are interested in is yours.
your body is already answering
*
your body is already answering *
Beneath the analysing, second guessing, conditioning and chorus of everybody else's opinions, your body is responding all the time.
Leaning towards.
Pulling away.
Contracting.
Opening.
Knowing things your thinking mind has not yet caught up with.
For two hours, we give that knowing our full attention.
WHAT YOU MIGHT BRING
You do not need to arrive with a perfectly articulated question.
You might come with a decision.
A relationship.
A crossroads.
A creative longing.
A boundary you cannot seem to hold.
Something you want but are frightened to admit you want.
A version of your life that no longer fits.
Or simply the unmistakable feeling that something needs to change, even though you cannot yet name what.
We start there.
Not with what you think you should be working on.
With what is actually asking for your attention.
what happens
Two hours online, though the work begins before we meet and continues after we finish.-
I will send you a questionnaire, a space to say what has brought you here and what you would like to bring. Often, simply putting the thing into words begins to loosen something.
-
We talk, but we do not stay in the story. I will help you slow down enough to notice what happens underneath the words. Sensation. Impulse. Image. The yes that feels different from the yes you have been giving everyone else. The no you may have been overriding for years. There is no script. We follow the thread that has life in it, and two hours means we do not have to hurry towards an answer because the clock is ticking.
-
Written notes reflecting the threads, images and moments that emerged. And a small number of practices chosen for you, so that you can keep listening rather than disappearing back into your head.
-
This is not a two hour pressure cooker in which we force your life into clarity. Sometimes you leave knowing exactly what comes next. Sometimes the shift is quieter, and something you thought was true no longer feels quite so solid. The purpose is not to manufacture certainty. It is to bring you back into relationship with your own knowing.
-
There is no expectation that you continue into coaching. Sometimes one good conversation, given enough time and attention, is exactly what is needed.

I'm a somatic coach, facilitator and photographer of more than twenty years, and I work with women standing at the midlife threshold.
My role is not to know your life better than you do.
It is to notice with you.
To listen beneath the words.
To ask the question underneath the obvious question.
To help you recognise when your body is speaking and create enough room for you to hear what it has to say.
I have lived enough life myself to know that wisdom rarely arrives shouting.
Sometimes we simply need somewhere quiet enough to hear it.
the exchange
Come with the decision, the question, the crossroads, the longing, or the thing you cannot quite name.
You do not need to have worked it out before you arrive. That is rather the point.
