"..we then discovered that I have a fear of success!”
"Michaela came recommended to me by a friend because I could never stick to a plan. I had all these great ideas for a business, but it would only go so far before it failed again. Through sessions with Michaela, I could start to see where I have been self sabotaging. Once we discovered this, I could no longer blame, the economy, the government, lack of finances etc. and it gave me this real sense of power and control over my life again! Once I was in this state, we then discovered that I have been self sabotaging because I have a fear of success! - that was it! The idea of being the "successful one" in the family felt weird because I was always in the background of my family, never really achieving anything or taking centre stage for anything. So now, we have worked on this together, and my business is growing as I have trained my nervous system to feel safe to succeed! Thank you Michaela :)

“..subconsciously, I was seeking out men who reinforced the chaotic feelings I was so familiar with.”
“I had been having relationship troubles all my life. All the men I chose had addictions, and I was always burnt out in these relationships. With Michaela's gentle approach, I began to see similarities in the chaos of these relationships and the chaos I experienced throughout my childhood. We did some activities together in the sessions, which was a fun way of finding out my attachment style, and behavioural patterns. Once I had this, I could see that subconsciously, I was seeking out men who reinforced the chaotic feelings I was so familiar with. Now I knew what I was doing, I was able to notice the red flags much quicker, and take steps to ensure that I didn't fall back into my old ways. I am growing stronger every day”

“We're working on my confidence to say "no" and really mean it, without feeling guilty and backing down.”
“Being a man, I found it hard to speak to anyone about what was going on in my head... We talked about doing visualisations in the times I found it difficult to express myself.
I declined the first time, but a few sessions in, I asked if we could do this, and we did. It was actually really easy and I felt the benefit...We're working on my confidence to say "no" and really mean it, without feeling guilty and backing down. I like that I have total control of these sessions. I get to choose if I want to vent for an hour, or if I just want to do visualisation to help ease the pain i'm in.
