Holding Your Balls Under Water?

Unexpressed emotion can feel like holding a beach ball underwater - it's really hard.? There's a constant fear that it's going to spring up, violently and out of control - probably hurting you in the process.??
You’ll notice it is super uncomfortable to keep it suppressed all the time and you can't enjoy much else because all your attention is on holding that damn beach ball down and stopping it springing up when you just don't want it to.???
Unexpressed emotion can be grief or fear or shame and it gets in the way of moving on - it gets in the way of you pursuing that dream, that thing you truly want.? If you let it, then it becomes your life's work to keep the beach ball pushed down under the surface where no one can see it or the impact that you fear it may have on you when it surfaces.?
There's ways to let your beach ball surface, to rise in a more controlled way, to allow it to float to the surface, and for you to see it for the first time in the daylight and then decide whether you want to hold onto it or let it float gently away.? That would be cool, wouldn’t it.
The work here with suppressed emotion is both painful and beautiful and it takes time, more time than you want but less time than you expect.??
As it surfaces you get to see that it's perhaps not as big as you thought or as powerful as you'd expected.??

When you let it float to the surface under your own control, for the first time you get to look up and look around you and see that everyone's got their own beach ball, everyone's working to keep it under water.??
I work with many clients who have their own version of a beach ball, their lives spent holding it down, keeping them back from doing what they truly want to do.?
I wanted to normalize it for you and for me.? The first stage is to recognize what you're holding onto something which doesn't serve you and then decide if you want to do something about it.? When you make that decision seek out some help to support you in surfacing it once and for all.?
I help you get the life or career you actually want.? Working with me you'll get clear on what you really want, create safety around any fears blocking your way and we get there faster than you dreamed possible.??
