Hi, i'm Theresa
What you’ll find here is a blend of thoughtful perspective, practical insight, or advice, offering space for reflection and personal growth.

Our emotional and physical wellbeing is shaped by many things — the people around us, the environments we live in, the beliefs, habits, and choices we make. Just as important is how safe we feel to be ourselves.
When that sense of safety is missing, we can slowly lose touch with our needs, desires, and authentic voice. Rebuilding that connection begins from within — by paying attention, listening more closely, and learning to trust what we feel and need.
For much of my life, the qualities that now shape my work felt like challenges. As a highly sensitive person and deep thinker, I spent many years feeling ‘wrong’ or inadequate. My sensitivity, intensity, and strong need for meaning were seen as weaknesses, and for years I carried that weight quietly, struggling to understand myself. Gradually, as I rebuilt connection with myself, I began to recognise them as strengths.
Over time, I began to recognise what felt right for me, and what didn’t. I came to understand my values, strengthen my boundaries, and notice how my body responds when something is aligned and when it isn’t. I also became more aware of how small, everyday choices either support a sense of inner clarity or gradually pull me further away from myself.
Alongside my own journey, I’ve spent years learning, observing, and reflecting. My understanding has been shaped through lived experience, sustained self-reflection, and formal study in areas such as emotional intelligence, positive psychology, transpersonal psychology, and counselling skills. This combination has given me a grounded way of seeing patterns, understanding complexity, and offering insight that is practical, thoughtful, and human.
Everything I’ve learned through this journey informs the work I do today. Through writing, I offer a private space for reflection and perspective, to explore questions, experiences, and inner conflicts that can be difficult to make sense of alone. The areas I once struggled with most — self-awareness, emotional wellbeing, relationships, and authenticity — are where I’ve gained the deepest insight over time.
I've come to understand what it means to live in a way that supports rather than undermines my wellbeing. When we move away from what we need or value, it often shows up as tension or unease. When we pay attention, even in small ways, we can begin to make choices that bring us back into closer relationship with ourselves.
If any of this resonates, I welcome you to explore your own path with curiosity, patience, and compassion. Sometimes change begins quietly, through noticing, learning, and making small choices that bring you back into closer relationship with yourself.
