Missed call, someone must have died

There was a long time when, if I ever got a missed call from my mum, I assumed someone had died.

I saw it as just my personality, just me

Just as I assumed it was ‘normal’ Lucy behaviour to:

• have a micro meltdown if I didn't hear back within an hour from a man I'd dated once
• give friends the cold shoulder as soon as they found a partner
• go quiet and not speak or say anything as soon as I was upset
• chase after unavailable men
• shut down emotionally whenever I was about to say goodbye to someone I cared about, even if I was just leaving for a week

I thought it was just who I was.

It was only when a woman at a retreat turned to me, tea in hand, and said...

'You went to boarding school at 11?! You've probably got abandonment stuff from that'

....that I even started to ask myself the question.

I mean, sure, I got homesick to start with but I was fine eventually.

Surely that didn't have any lasting impact?

But here's the thing:

It does.

I call them the silent saboteurs, these little chinks in our personalities which aren't truly us, but silent mechanisms we've developed to cope with circumstances which we found hard at the time.

Mine said: 'it is really painful to leave people or have them leave you, so don't let yourself ever really connect with anyone properly to protect yourself from that'.

Now, every single one of us has a silent saboteur or two.

Little mechanisms we've created as ways to cope with things that were too hard to deal with when we were little.

The only problem is that what was once something that helped us cope, is now stopping us from fully living.

And you and I know that:

• You deserve to experience the depth and beauty of this life
• You deserve to feel the depth of power within you
• You deserve to feel the beauty of your heart
• You deserve to feel the liberation that comes with learning how to work with these silent saboteurs

And most of all..

• You deserve to feel fully ALIVE

How?

That’s where the Liberation method comes in ;) and this is the work I do with my private clients, meeting you where you're at, at your level of readiness, and slowly opening the door to your own liberated life.
