I feel present and connected to the people that matter most to me.
When I started working with Andrew I was stressed and anxious a lot of the time. My career was moving forward but I was experiencing a lot of conflict at home and had some bad habits I kept reverting to.
I had tried various things in the past including therapy but not much changed, I was still being triggered by the children and the way I was turning up at home was causing conflict with my wife.
Eventually I was referred to Andrew by a friend that worked with him earlier in the year.
I had never explored how my past was influencing how I was turning up now and at the start I was a bit skeptical as I viewed my childhood as being better than most.
Through the process I learned a lot about myself and what was actually driving my behaviour. In the process of becoming aware of this I was able to release the underlying emotions that I had repressed through the years. Just doing this changed the way i experienced life on a daily basis and I felt a lot more present and at peace. The anxiety I thought I had to live with disappeared almost immediately.
The work I did with Andrew taught me a lot about the gaps in my childhood and how I want to turn up as a father to my children. It's also given me the tools to navigate the challenges of juggling a career and being a parent. I feel present and connected to the people that matter most to me.
