Today, this helps me understand people more and makes it possible for me to interact well with people who are not as extroverted as I currently am.
As a child, I found myself fearful of what we call (as adults), spiritual gifts and intuition. I did not consider it a gift back then. To protect myself, I somehow blocked it all off. But as I began to heal and become substance free, my gifts began creeping through again until I could no longer ignore them. I believe that my abilities and sixth sense are not solely spiritual and that my compassion, empathy, intuition and psychic ability has evolved around psychological, emotional and mental trauma and my knowledge in behavioural sciences. I feel deeply not only for myself but also for others. Whilst I know I cannot take away someone’s pain, I like to provide an environment where people feel heard, respected, cared about and understood. This is the cornerstone of all our Soulfully Guided services. I want to share with you the beauty of walking through any challenge (little or big) and the freedom, happiness, courage, confidence, healing and inner-peace this brings. I always look for the light at the end of the tunnel and if I can’t find it, I make it! I’m persistent like that.
CARMEL-ANNE
Welcome to my world! Personally, I am passionate, chatty, outgoing, mostly sociable, extroverted, quirky, loyal, honest, caring and probably a hand full but let’s settle with fun. I am a proud mother to my children, and wife to a brilliant husband who opened my world up to love and a healthier, healed lifestyle. At home, in the safety of my tribe, I love breaking out into song and dance with my two amazing daughters. To my husband’s dismay, we are all shocking singers! I also love to laugh and enjoy life. I’ve had some terribly traumatic and hugely dysfunctional years that were spent either stuck, hopeless and helpless, crying, in denial or abusing substances to numb and block everything out. To date, nothing in my life has been worse than what I have healed from. So now, I approach life light heartedly and always enjoy a good laugh. I’m also deep, analytical, responsible and mature but have a fun childish (and cheeky) streak. I come with a splash of cool and a sprinkle of funny but the brain of an undercover academic (say’s me!).
Although I am extroverted, due to trauma, as a child, I was very quiet, shy, timid, lacked confidence and very introverted. I lost myself in books to escape my own life and reality.
