By growing our emotional intelligence and stepping into uncomfortable places where we are vulnerable or even triggered.......is by definition the most courageous work there is! Grow Brave Counselling facilitates the difficult work of growing into being wholehearted, more compassionate and fulfilled human beings.
"MANIFESTO OF THE BRAVE AND BROKENHEARTED
There is no greater threat to the critics and cynics and fearmongers than those of us who are willing to fall because we have learned how to rise with skinned knees and bruised hearts; We choose owning our stories of struggle, Over hiding, over hustling, over pretending. When we deny our stories, they define us. When we run from struggle, we are never free. So we turn toward truth and look it in the eye. We will not be characters in our stories. Not villains, not victims, not even heroes. We are the authors of our lives. We write our own daring endings. We craft love from heartbreak, Compassion from shame, Grace from disappointment, Courage from failure. Showing up is our power. Story is our way home. Truth is our song. We are the brave and broken-hearted. We are rising strong."
