Episode 292: Dangers of the individual focus

My main task - what it is most said to me at the end of a teen session - or any session really regardless of age “I feel seen" - “I feel you get me"Being seen - ironically it’s only when we feel seen that we bring the best of us to a group or a collective.So why is this generation living in turmoil? Not feeling enough? Books I mention:https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/50622390-just-as-i-am?ac=1&from_search=true&qid=veFTMmvYwg&rank=4https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/13622279-across-that-bridge?ac=1&from_search=true&qid=Z88mYMRKSe&rank=1Article on John Lewis school visit:https://www.ajc.com/gdpr.html?outputType=ampAs usual, I forgot to mention my Patreon.

Episode 290: Changing Teen Patterns

Introduction to season 7 of the podcast - why did I pick to focus on teens for this series? Why is the world harder to grow up in right now? That's going to be the focus of this series.Bad patterns don't just continue - they are about the choices people feel they can make. What they deserve. The simplest way for teens to change is to ask for help - but they learn at home if this is too shameful or not. Book mentioned:Free lunch Rex Oglehttps://www.goodreads.com/book/show/43726584

Episode 287: Cicely Tyson Biography - finding yourself

This is a podcast in lessons on looking to biographies to find yourself. I prescribe biographies for everyone I work with regardless of age.This is also a lot of what I don’t talk about living in the gap because when I do I feel projected at ... so I thought it would be good for me to walk the talk for you all. These are the sorts of simple podcasts which feel like jumping off a cliff for me. Finding yourself in others and not wanting to compare to those so great. It's a very difficult podcast to record - to record your truth - what drives you. What values do you really care about? How you hope that by your choices you enable others to be better versions of themselves. The series of books for younger readers I couldn't remember the name of! https://littlepeoplebigdreams.com

Episode 286: The Gap in growth

Or what I call the Projection Zone. When people no longer hear what you are saying - they are so focused on the gap from where you are working from that they can't reach you - just project.  Quote I use:"Everything that irritates us about others can lead us to an understanding of ourselves."Carl Jung
