Are you finding a relationship, friendship or work situation a struggle, maybe you feel disappointed by something or it isn't quite what it seems? You're puzzled and need support to work things out without feeling judged so you can do something about it. It could be having an effect on your confidence or finances ~ whatever it is you don't have to put up with unreasonable behaviour from anyone or let them use your good nature to survive their own crisis.

This is for you if

~ You feel put upon by someone because you're caring and conscientious
~ You're generous to a fault but you've found you're paying for more than you should around certain people
~ You give people the benefit of the doubt until it gets uncomfortable and then you struggle to get out of it
~ You don't feel in control of your own life anymore

Crisis can lead to trying to please others or grasping at any opportunity that comes your way as you'll tend to judge yourself and act without thinking. It takes courage to do something about it and defy other people's objections but this will add to the experience as it builds resilience making the experience feel empowering and therefore improves your self-esteem which can be vital to your wellbeing.

The benefits are

~ A strong drive to express yourself clearly and bravely face the consequences
~ A desire to form nourishing rather than toxic relationships
~ An opportunity to stop self-sabotaging your own efforts so you make better decisions
~ A chance to reclaim your independence if you want to overcome your dependency on others and visa versa
~ An acceptance that experiences, even small ones can be empowering rather than destroying

Bio

I'm a qualified movie therapist, mentor and life coach and I've helped people use movies as a vehicle towards increasing their self-esteem through the support I received from organizations such as Wirral Mind and The School for Social Entrepreneurs where I graduated from as a fellow on the Innovators for Health program - click here  for a full list of my qualifications and accreditations.
Moreover I turned detective when it came to dating as I'd previously launched my unprepared self into a controlling relationship after my marriage broke down and during this time I made lots of mistakes so as a way to protect myself I used movies I'd been drawn to as I didn't want to repeat the experience.  I knew I had to change my behaviour and as I didn't want to go down the conventional therapy route I lent towards movies to help me see what I was attracting.  And let me tell you that it's hard when people fall out with you because you're not doing what they want but I knew that I had to get past this and it resulted in me regaining my self-esteem and feeling capable enough again to challenge myself to do other things in life.
