How to face your past if you want a different future with Donna Lancaster

Про цей епізод

There are some heavy subjects in the episode, including suicide, so please be mindful of that and your own well-being before deciding to listen to this episode. Hey everyone and welcome back to Motherkind. The show that is going to help you navigate the massive challenges of motherhood (and life) with more acceptance, ease, joy and purpose. This week is one of those game-changer episodes. It is with Donna Lancaster. Donna has worked as a coach and therapist for over 25 years. She was formally head of teaching at the Hoffman Institute UK and she co-created The Bridge retreat. A six-day personal development experience endorsed by the likes of Bryony Gordon, Fearne Cotton and Thandie Newton. This episode is about healing and facing our past if we want a different future. I deeply believe that this episode has the potential to change lives and save lives - both ours and future generations. She discusses the two phases of life. The first looking at outside forces, such as appearance, career, money and relationships, which is very “me-focused.” And then, according to Donna, the breaking points which present an opportunity to transition into phase two, which is more a “celebration of life.” If this sounds interesting to you then you’ll want to get her brilliant new book, The Bridge: A nine step crossing into authentic and wholehearted living. As always, we continue the conversation over on Instagram, so come and join us there.
