Masterclasses

First, understand.

Two hours of perspective on one theme: where this wound comes from, what it protects, and what the great teachers and the research say about it.

Every masterclass comes with references and resources, with research kept apart from interpretation.

The Mother–Child Bond

Your mother was your first world. The way she held you, or couldn’t, is where your body first learned whether the world is safe, and how to hold and be held.

We look at where the mother wound comes from, how it shows up in your life today, in love, in friendship, in the way you speak to yourself, and what psychology, research and the great teachers say about it.

You will leave with

a clear map of what the mother wound is, and what it is not
the roles children take to stay close to their mother
questions to sit with on your own
the sources, so you can go deeper

Live, with the recording afterwards. Available to purchase at any time. In the seven-week program, every session has its own masterclass, included.

The Father–Child Bond

Your father was your first window onto the world. The way he was there, or absent, or too hard, or too far away, became the way you learned to face the world.

We look at where the father wound comes from, how it shows up today, with authority, at work, in love, around money and success, and what psychology, research and the great teachers say about it.

You will leave with

a clear map of what the father wound is, and what it is not
the roles we take to be seen by him
questions to sit with on your own
the sources, so you can go deeper

Live, with the recording afterwards. Available to purchase at any time. In the eight-week program, every session has its own masterclass, included.

Good vs Nice Girl

You were praised for being nice. It cost you yourself. For women who learned early that being agreeable was the price of belonging.

We look at where “nice” comes from, why the body still pays for it, and the difference between needing approval and stating your own truth. The word nice comes from the Latin nescius: not knowing. Good knows, and can be kind and still say no.

You will leave with

a clear difference between nice and good
the masks we wear to feel worthy
questions to sit with on your own
the sources, so you can go deeper

Live, with the recording afterwards. Available to purchase at any time. In the six-week program, every session has its own masterclass, included.

Away From Home

You can leave home. Home doesn’t leave you. For everyone who left a parents’ house, a hometown or a country, and still carries what stayed behind.

We look at the grief of leaving that rarely gets a funeral, the guilt of leaving and the guilt of being happy elsewhere, and what research on migration and loss says about it. I left my own country more than twenty years ago.

You will leave with

words for a loss that often has none
why guilt and joy can live side by side
questions to sit with on your own
the sources, so you can go deeper

Away From Home

Reflections on the patterns we inherit, the roles we learn to play, the places we leave behind, and the parts of ourselves we have yet to meet.
