Have you ever thought, ‘I just don’t get them’?

Have you ever sat reeling from a snippy comment from your boss? A month-long ghosting from a friend? Being undermined by a partner?

No matter how hard you think, you just can’t understand it. You didn’t do anything wrong. You don’t get them, why are they doing this to you?

Let’s talk about you

Are you worried about something in your life? Is there an area of discontent? A fear that you harbour that makes you feel alone?

Maybe you’re anxious. Or you hate your job. Or you have a health issue. Or your relationship isn’t working anymore and you have no idea how to get out.

Perhaps you have an addiction. Maybe money is a dark cloud that lives permanently over your head. Or you suffer from depression. Or a loved one is going through a major health issue. Or you’re bereaved.

Maybe your relationship with your parents is rock bottom. Or you’ve lost touch with all your friends. Perhaps you’re desperately lonely. Or you’re so exhausted looking after a newborn that you can’t think straight.
