Dear Dr Genevieve,

This is a really interesting post and one, which I can really relate to, the external markers of success that you mentioned also didn’t seem to greatly increase my wellbeing. I am also aware that reaching any future goals will also not necessarily bring lasting satisfaction unless I continue to do the inner work whilst increasing my default level of happiness and confidence. I’m learning to find peace and joy in simple pleasures whilst understanding my natural rhythms. To gain confidence I’ve had to pull all the stops out, challenging myself and getting back up when I slip back into old patterns of reacting rather than responding. A simple meditation routine and journaling are two practices that I find beneficial. I hope this community will expand and be of great benefit to those who seek self-knowledge and personal growth.
