I grew up rarely asking for anything. When we went visiting, I wasnโt allowed to ask for water, to use the toilet, or for anything at all, in case it inconvenienced someone. As ridiculous as it sounds now, that mindset stayed with me for a long time. I learned to go without, to expect disappointment, and to believe that if I wanted something, Iโd have to sort it out myself. Itโs only in the last ten years that Iโve really questioned this. How can we receive what we want if we never ask? How can others know how to support us if we donโt say what we need? And how can life, or the universe, respond if we donโt even know what we want our life to look like? I see this pattern so often in clients I work with, especially in women and mothers. We give, we sacrifice, we cope and somewhere along the way, we stop expecting anything for ourselves. We forget how to want. This isnโt about being materialistic. Itโs about reconnecting with desire and clarity. You canโt consciously create a life you want if you havenโt taken the time to recognise what that is. Have you ever really stopped to think about what you want for your life?
