Sorry I've been gone for a couple of weeks but I'm back now. I've got to start a different rhythm, so much going on new projects and clients, that I need to post once a fortnight not once a week. So you'll see me every other Friday now.This time, it's a story from one of my advanced students ... she posted it this morning and I was so thrilled I asked her if I could use the bones of it for the podcast. Here it is ... enjoy!

Often it can feel like archetypes are set in stone, have only the meaning in the book, or what our coach tells us it is, and that they're inbuilt traits that won't change. This isn't so. They're actually "psychological constructs" - ideas and generalisations people have thought up. They really came on stage at the end of the 19th century with people like Freud and Jung although the idea of them has been around far longer but more often in the characters of a story or play. That's how I work with

Trust is a big thing, huge in fact and it underlies all our relationships - business and personal. It's an issue I have. We all do. I don’t work with people I don’t feel I can trust. Most of us don’t. Often, we can’t explain the feeling but we know it, deep in our bones, it’s an instinctual, a gut thing, something we just know.So how do we get to trust someone? I'm talking about it this week as it's something I'm working with right now ...

I've just had a really good chat with Podcast Best Guest host, Victoria Bennion. Victoria regularly podcasts with expert business owners and authors so I was thrilled to be a guest on her show. Victoria asked me to explain something of my witchy background as well as what I do as a coach and retreat leader and to explain just what 3 Dimensional Coaching is, what it does and how it works. Enjoy 😊And Victoria said she'd come and be a guest here on Pea Green Boat so we can hear more about her and what

Something different this week – a story. I grew up on thes old stories of Britain.This is one of my own, built around the old tales of the raven goddess of death and rebirth. In some of the tales she’s also called the Washer at the Ford. The Washer at the Ford is the raven goddess. She lives with all of us in the Celtic lands, in Britain, Wales, Scotland, Ireland and Brittany.This story comes out of the old Arthurian tales and is my thoughts on what might have happened after he rejected Gwenhwyfar

All too often we’re told – and believe – we need to release, get rid of, exorcise, some habit or trait or negative emotion. Yuck! I really don't do all that. And doing it never works long-term, it's a bit like going on a slimming diet, cutting out anything that will make you fat. Then, when you fit back in your jeans you promptly head back for a latte with a Danish pastry, cupcake, jam tart, or whatever and put all the weight back on! Befriending, on the other hand, brings you to a whole new,

🦇 💩 This podcast is dedicated to fellow coach and author, Taz Thornton, who (all unknowingly … perhaps?!) has enabled this change, this threshold moment, in me. Ta very muchley, Taz – said in a growl – I really needed this, even if I don’t want it! So I love you dearly even if I want to bite your nuts off! Change is a crazy, gorgeous, terrifying, wonderful thing, and so often we each need to be pushed off the cliff because we just ain’t never gonna jump of our own accord. Taz is a wonderful person

Anger is something we all have,we all get angry. Often we're told it's bad - I disagree with that.Anger has its own purpose ... what we need to do is discover what that purpose is. Doing that can be hard and difficult work. I had it beautifully demonstrated to me last week by a client. Her journey into getting close to her anger and beginning to learn what it was there for - and how it had helped her through her life to date - inspired this podcast. Walking with her on this journey, then helping her

I'm really lucky this week as coaching colleague Fay Blakey is guesting on Pea Green Boat. As well as being Mum gorgeous Sam and wife to Jon, Fay is chief-cook-and-bottle-washer (i.e. staff!) to Maya and Barney, gorgeous cats who love to pounce on the keyboard and chase the cursor; and she's guardian to Bugsey the Bunny. Busy woman!I really enjoy being with Fay. She sees the funny side of life and her glass is always half full, add in she's practical, down to earth and caring. Like me, she loves to

In October, I’m doing my first retreat again since the pandemic stopped all that – it’s on Rewilding Your Heart.So … what is rewilding your heart all about? It’s about finding your wild heart – often buried deep inside you – reconnecting with it and making that a daily practice.You’ll find it reconnects you with Nature too. No longer will you have the weird sort of feeling that you and the natural world may be on opposite sides, or even (as some do) that Nature can be your enemy at least some of the

A while back, before I went under with covid, a friend asked me: When most of the people in the world are getting in the rat-race and doing something they don't want to do, how did you choose to do something different and also to add value to the lives of others?Wow! That's a big one! So … just where does my shit come from, where does the way I work come from? And why is it so different from many Business Models?

This week began with a trip down Memory Lane, back when I was a software boffin in the days when the acronym WYSIWYG got invented in re-Arc days, 1974. It means What You See Is What You Get, and is the interface that makes our modern desktop publishing so user-friendly.I was already half into psychology back then too. My Dance degree had included the Rudolf Laban techniques of understanding, using and working with the Shadow side of body-movement. Understanding the shadow side of what people say

This week I'm talking about our inner compasses and how to use them. How to find and listen to your own compass – rather than somebody else’s – is something just about all my clients need me to help them with. It’s a complicated thing and first of all involves realising that this is what you need! One of clients recently gave me an ace example this and has agreed to let me use it here ... no names, no pack drill of course!

One of my tutors said to me, "Be full of expectancy but without expectations". I've never forgotten and it makes a huge difference to how successfully we live our lives if we try to stick to that maxim. It's not easy ... takes practice ... but there are so many reasons why it's a good idea.

An everyday view of Carl Jung’s “Collective Unconscious”. Difficult sounding subject but it isn’t really. In this podcast I’ll show you how simple, obvious and real it actually is, and how useful for all of us once we learn how to tap into it … and make the unconscious conscious!

What is re-visioning? What does it mean, what do I do, how does it work for you? today I’m talking about dreams and visions, we all have them but how often do we really go all out to make them come true? Revisioning your life can make that happen.

Short introductory podcast telling you a bit about me. I'll be podcasting every week now.

As far as names go, no animal has it quite like the fisher. Often called a “fisher cat”, it is not a feline, and doesn’t really care much for fish. One of nature’s few porcupine predators, this feisty, forest-dwelling expert climber is actually a member of the weasel family. Join us for this episode of Warden’s Watch WILD, as we meet once again with wildlife biologist Jill Kilborn to learn more about the small but mighty fisher.
