Posted on December 10, 2016 by Catarina | 0 Comments

Are you expecting (and probably dreading) a visit from some energy stealers this Christmas? You know what I mean. Christmas is supposed to be all about love, joy and peace.

What to do about annoying clients

Posted on December 1, 2016 by Catarina | 3 Comments

Sometimes we have clients who are extremely challenging. They push all sorts of buttons. Buttons we didn’t even know we had. And our natural reaction is probably to say something along the lines of: “ok I can’t be bothered with him/her, he/she’s not my ideal client, let me send him/her away, let me not be bothered with him/her, he/she isn’t worth…

Riding the big girl’s bike

Fears. We all have them. And we know that they can literally make us freeze from taking action. Which means they hold us back. We want to have xyz, we want to achieve abc, however the fear of taking the risks and action to get us from A to B can prevent us from doing so. By allowing our fears…

Peeling back Positivity

Posted on November 11, 2016 by Catarina | 0 Comments

All through our lives we tend to turn our backs on things that don’t go away, like negative emotions, because they make us feel bad. And who wants to feel bad? So we shut negative emotions away.

Life Without Triggers

It’s been almost 4 years since I had energy work done on myself for the first time. I didn’t have a clue that energy work even existed, but for a very personal reason, gave it a go.

I am in South Africa this week visiting my best friend. Last night we had a barbecue at her house with a bunch of her friends. I knew some of them, I didn’t know others. And as is expected, when you meet someone for the first time you have the normal chit chat – hello, where do you live, how…

Who’s that girl?

Do you remember her? That little girl who would squeal with delight at things that today seem so uneventful. The one who laughed. Who made others laugh. Who felt happy. Not a care in the world. What happened? Well… Life happened. People started telling her what was right and wrong, what she should or shouldn’t think, feel, believe. Her parents….

This has been going on for a while. Resistance. I am resisting changing the name of my branding. Again. Changing it again.
