Closure & New Beginnings: Am I Delusional?! Part 2

When something ends quicker than you expected, how do you handle it? What actions do you take to prevent these patterns repeating themselves? How do you release the trauma so it doesn’t impact you in the future?

In this episode of The Date with Confidence Podcast - a follow up to the "Am I Delusional?!" episode that was released two weeks ago - I’m giving you an insight into the coaching session I had after a recent dating experience came to an end quicker than I expected it to. I’m taking you behind the scenes of the trauma work we did together, how I got closure for myself and discoveries I made about myself thanks to this experience.  

Here are the key topics covered:

1. Personal Healing Session: I discuss my session with Marie Houlden, a mindset coach and energy healer, who uses various modalities like breathwork, EFT, hypnosis, and trauma-informed techniques. For more on her work, go here*.

2. Emotional Turmoil: I openly share my emotional rollercoaster, including feelings of confusion, self-doubt, anger, and hurt after the breakup.

3. Seeking Closure: Find out whether I sent a final message to get closure or whether I chose to leave things with the first, angry message I sent him.

4. Reconnecting with Myself: Learn about the transformative, energy clearing technique that helps me gain clarity around what to do, release any past trauma and allows me to heal my heart. 

5. Reflection on the Situation: I reflect on the dating experience and my emotional needs, as well as the fear of jumping into a full-blown commitment at this point in my life.

6. Moving Forward: I discuss what I did to further cement the closure for myself and how I'm open to new dating experiences, reaffirming my sense of self and purpose.

Join me on this journey of healing and self-discovery, demonstrating how moments of emotional turmoil can lead to growth and transformation.
