One of my absolute favorite things in life is helping people untangle complicated emotions. Life throws challenges at us—some minor, some deeply traumatic—and too often, people get stuck in their pain, unable to find a way forward. I see it all the time with my clients. They carry wounds from past experiences, sometimes without even realising it, and those wounds shape how they react to the world.

They tell me, “I don’t want to be this way, but I can’t help it.”

They’re frustrated because no matter how much they want to change, they keep repeating the same patterns, collecting more pain along the way. It becomes a self-perpetuating cycle—one that no one enjoys being trapped in.

But what if the very experiences that hurt us the most could become the key to our deepest growth?

Breaking the Cycle of Emotional Triggers

Most people don’t realise they are operating out of old scars. They go through life reacting from past wounds, carrying unresolved pain into new situations and relationships. They find themselves triggered, lashing out, or withdrawing—then regretting it afterward.

They say things like:

❌ “I know I shouldn’t have reacted like that, but I just couldn’t stop myself.”

❌ “I don’t want to be angry, but this feeling keeps coming back.”

❌ “I’ve tried to move on, but I still feel stuck.”

And then, because they don’t know how to break free, they end up collecting more pain—more guilt, more shame, more self-doubt—layered on top of what they were already carrying.

This is where transformation begins.

I help my clients unravel their emotions, separate the past from the present, and finally see the situation for what it was—not just as something that hurt them, but as something that can serve them. Because inside every painful experience, there is a hidden message, a lesson, and an opportunity for growth.

And when we uncover that, something shifts.

The Hardest Journey I’ve Ever Taken

I don’t just teach this—I’ve lived it.

The hardest experience of my life was recovering from long-term narcissistic abuse. It didn’t happen overnight. It was a slow, suffocating process, so subtle at first that I didn’t even realise what was happening. Little by little, I lost myself.

I remember waking up one day and not recognising the person staring back at me in the mirror. I had become someone I never intended to be—smaller, quieter, walking on eggshells, questioning my every move. The weight of years of subtle manipulation and covert aggression had shaped me into a version of myself that I barely recognised.

I felt scattered, as if pieces of me had been flung across the world, and I had no idea how to gather them back together.

For a long time, I believed I had no choice but to carry the weight of that pain forever. That I would always be that person—the one who was hurt, broken, diminished. But at some point, I made a decision: I was not going to stay a victim.

Piece by piece, I reclaimed myself. And when I did, I realised something life-changing—this experience, as painful as it was, had also given me something priceless.

It had taught me the power of transformation.

And once I had learned how to do it for myself, I knew I had a gift to share with others.

Your Past Does Not Define Your Future

At one point, I even reached out to a life coach for help. He was shocked at how quickly I was able to move forward. He told me, “Most people don’t come out of situations like this the way you have.”

I now understand that my learnt experience combined with my neurodivergence plays a key role in how I see the world. My brain doesn’t process life experiences the way most people’s do. I don’t just see pain—I see patterns. I don’t just see chaos—I see connections. I now instinctively find the right meaning in everything, and because of that, I don’t stay stuck.

When I work with clients, I don’t just listen to their stories—I see the bigger picture of how every experience connects to their personal growth.  My empathy and my intuition also help me tap into exactly how they are currently feeling, together with their exact perspective. That’s why I can help people move forward so much faster than they ever expected. Because I don’t see their experiences as random or meaningless.

I see them as the doorway to their next level of transformation.

And when they finally see it too, everything changes.

From Trauma to Wisdom: The Secret to Letting Go

When people experience trauma, they often assume they have only two options:

1️⃣ Suppress it and move on (which never truly works), or

2️⃣ Stay stuck in it, replaying it over and over.

But there’s a third option—one that most people don’t realise is even possible.

That option is Post-Traumatic Growth.

This is what happens when you take a painful experience and transform it into something that makes you stronger, wiser, and more resilient.

Once this process happens, that so-called “scar” is easy to let go of. The anger, sadness, or frustration no longer has a grip on you. And not only do you release it—you actually become grateful for it, because you now see the benefits of the wisdom you’ve unlocked.

At that moment, you shift from being a victim of your life experiences to being a survivor.

And then, we take it one step further—you don’t just survive, you thrive.

Healing Changes Everything—Including Your Relationships

One of the most beautiful things about true healing is that it doesn’t just affect you—it affects everyone around you.

Take my current relationship, for example. My partner has never had to suffer for what my previous partner did to me. He has never had to carry the weight of my past. Why? Because I took full responsibility for my healing.

This is something I’m deeply proud of. Too often, people drag their past pain into new relationships, expecting their partners to “fix” what someone else broke. But when we do that, we keep ourselves stuck.

When you fully heal—when you extract the wisdom from your past instead of just carrying the wounds—you stop repeating patterns. You stop reacting to new people as if they are the ones who hurt you. And that’s when you get to experience love, friendships, and connections in a way that is truly freeing.

Imagine how different your life could be if you weren’t weighed down by the past.
