"Addiction can be defined as any behaviour whether substance related or not, that a person craves, finds temporary relief or pleasure in, suffers negative consequences as a result of, but still persists in and is unable to give up." Gabor Mate
The reason I began work in the field of Coaching started for me when I fought my own battles with addiction. I have been surrounded by it my whole life and understand the difficulties and darkness that comes with it.
I understand what it's like when a behaviour or substance takes control of our minds, our actions and lives. How it can impact the love we have for our families and ourselves. Our spirits and welf worth. Our ambitions and goals. I understand how something so harmful can take number 1 priority when it should be worthless. I understand entirely.
However amongst all the pain, I also know how to recover. I know what it takes to start again. To rebuild. for me it's been an exciting journey. To see that not only can life be worth living again, it can be a thrill. After rising from the depths of addiction and despair. Us addicts know how to truly value life, the simplicities and come back with deep wisdoms and kindness for others. It's worth the fight.
If you feel that you are ready, please reach out and I would be so honoured to be with you on the most important journey of your life.
