 I have something really important to tell you. I love you. All of you. There is no part of you, inside or out, that I cannot love. And that will not change. I offer my love freely and without condition because I accept all of you. If it feels difficult to accept my unconditional love then you're not alone. I know how that feels, I haven't always found it easy to be loved. I remember as a child and young teen, the times when my Mum tried to comfort me, to offer her love. I felt so raw and vulnerable. I felt so much shame that she saw me like that, that she witnessed my pain. I felt like such a failure. All I wanted was to feel normal, for it to go away. So I rejected her love, pushed her away. And as I did, I learned to reject my own love too. For decades after, love was elusive in my life. Feast or famine, deluge or drought. One minute there, the next gone. Years of therapy, workshops, spiritual festivals, working on my stuff, releasing the triggers from early childhood trauma. Changing how I felt about myself, transforming the beliefs that used to hold me in self criticism, judgement and disdain. I was genuinely happy with who I was, inside and out, I looked different and felt different. My connection to source deepened and as it did my happiness and contentment increased beyond measure. My tribe were there to support me. I allowed myself to receive their love. And I loved them in return. Yet, when it came to my intimate relationships, love felt like a fickle friend. When love was there. Confusing, bewildering, unnerving. I couldn't trust myself around love. I didn't feel that I deserved to be loved as I was, believing that love was conditional, on me being good enough, thin enough, ...enough. The list was endless. And when love wasn't there. Believing exactly the same. Feeling worse and yet feeling relieved. See, I was right after all, I told myself; you don't deserve to be loved.  Then one ordinary day, my truth was revealed. Love was always there. I'd been searching in all the wrong places. I'd been looking for someone to love me the way my Mum had loved me, to cherish and care for me, to make me feel safe and secure again. To witness my pain and vulnerability, fully accepting these parts of me, to welcome the whole of me, and offer unconditional love. All those years, looking outside of me, searching for someone to love me enough, when all along it was right there, inside of me. I have the answer. I am love. And love is me. It is the whole of me and each separate part of me. It doesn't matter who I'm with or how much they love me. All that ever matters is that I love me. In relationships, I am the one to make me feel safe and secure when I'm scared of getting hurt. I am there to cherish and care for me, when I'm feeling under pressure or alone. I am the one to witness my pain in all its vulnerability when I reveal who I am to another. I am the one to accept me as me, regardless of what I've said or done or believe. I am the one to offer unconditional love when I get scared and fall back into old ways. Love is always with me and within me. I am love and love is me. And that's all I need remember. This is my Self Love story and I humbly share it with you, so you can see me and know my truth. It is an honour to reveal this part of myself to you. Thank you for receiving me as I receive you. On this most glorious day of Self Love, I offer you my deepest love and my appreciation for all you bring to my life and our bountiful ever-giving universe.

“I just love being around Gill, her energy is amazing, she positively sparkles. She’s a positive delight to be around and her big smile always makes me want to giggle even when I've been feeling very sad. I always feel supported, understood and cared for by Gill. She has so much empathy and intuition and quickly helped me get to the bottom of things. I really feel I could trust her with my innermost secrets; working with her has helped me understand myself and healed many of my deepest wounds. I highly recommend Gill as a professional and caring coach, she is highly trained and knowledgeable and uses a variety of different techniques in the sessions.” Michelle, UK "Amazing results, really, honestly, I have been so fortunate to work with you. So grateful to you Gill for your wonderful calm, gentle manner and your talent in getting me to talk, not difficult about most subjects except when it comes to talking about myself." Lisa, UK “I had almost always been successful at interviews in the past but, after being made redundant from a middle management job I loved, in a quite brutal process, this was no longer the case. I had several interviews but kept coming a "close second" and each setback left me feeling more and more anxious and disheartened. Usually, I think my colleagues would describe me as upbeat and positive. When two lots of interview feedback was around my low enthusiasm levels I realised that I was not presenting the real me at interviews. Having had an amazing session with Gill a couple of years before I approached her for a coaching session. Firstly, Gill tapped into my inner demons and left me feeling calmer than I had for weeks. She then worked on my positivity, using a visualisation technique I could practice just before an interview. The following week I had two interviews and, after Gill’s help, I felt really confident going into them. I was delighted to be offered both jobs, including one that I really wanted. Seeing Gill made such a difference and was well worth the investment as it helped me to secure an interesting, well-paid job again. I cannot recommend her highly enough.” Pamela, UK
