  Keep going Katie. You don’t have to be glamorous or sexy to be loved and adored. It’s a difficult journey but you’ve already come a long way. I’m rooting for you xxxx

  The relationship we have with ourselves is the most important relationship in our life and often the most difficult.

  Katie has had enough of the bs. Finally she is seeing that she is not the problem and never has been .  This was authentic Katie and she is fucking amazing . She was totally honest ! Even putting Alex in his place …fantastic Katie.

  It's interesting how the pattern of not being seen and heard is playing out again in this session. Alex talks over her most of the time, doesn't let her finish sentences and is basically telling her what is what. In a way, it's a repetition of the dynamic she talks about at the beginning of the session - the argument she was having with her husband and kids. The more active and overpowering Alex is, the more she will hold on to her own view. What she needs is space to hear her own thoughts, someone to mirror them back and to ask insightful questions so she can explore other options for herself.

  Well, I bought a small farm at the age of 59. 13 years later, I am still here and loving it, with my partner of 8 years, and my horses, dogs, chickens, and goats, and a big garden. Lots and LOTS of work, but at 72 I don’t want to live anywhere else. I have had quite a journey these past years, with sadness, particularly around the passing of much-loved animals, but also a tremendous amount of peace and feeling deeply grounded in nature. Neither my partner nor I are movie stars!

  I really want to thank Alex and the OHC team for putting out these videos.  I find them very helpful.  I also want to acknowledge Katie for being brave enough to open up in such a vulnerable way.  I found it very helpful to hear Katie's story and follow her journey.  I could relate to many things she was going through as I have similar situations in my life.  I am also the same age as her.  I just want her to know how much I appreciate her sharing her life issues and I look forward to the next video to see how she is doing.

  Katie I absolutely adore you 🙂 <br>I truly see how hard it is for you to reflect on your insecurities yet I see a mighty women emerging. <br> I hope more &amp; more you see what others see in you and that you come more &amp; more from a centred strong place inside of you.<br> I see such an intelligent, interesting, sassy, strong &amp; beautiful lady. I hope you don’t mind me saying all this.<br> Perhaps it’s because I have spent my whole life feeling lesser or insecure. I have had therapy to also address these issues. I am 51.<br> Sending you love, courage, strength &amp; stillness in your life &amp; heart. Wishing you well on this journey with Alex &amp; beyond. May you step gently &amp; lovingly into YOU and enjoy coming home &amp; all that this brings.<br> With love and thanks to you &amp; Alex. Xxx<br>P.s women to women, you really do have beautiful glamorous blue eyes 😘

  Katie , your amazing. You aren&apos;t crazy, the truth is your spouse is disrespectful calling you names and gaslighting you. Your kids are doing what all kids do, and all mothers react the same as you. We work our fingers to the bone and they make a mess etc. Your a great mum. Don&apos;t put up with a bloke who treats you like crap. Your better than that.

  I am an art therapist. I saw all chapters, thank you! <br>I believe that our deepest yearning is to be loved as we are. <br>&quot;The experience of Permission is as important as the air we breathe,<br>and the granting of Permission is a vital act in relationships, parenting, education, and therapy.&quot;<br><br>Nona Orbach, The Book of Permission

  Katie, I only wish that I had enough courage to get into a dialogue with my father about issues. &nbsp;Well done to you. &nbsp;you are such an amazing person. &nbsp;thank you for all you&apos;ve shared

  Katie, I think you are beautiful, both inside and out, and anyone would be lucky to have you, baggage and all. I feel as you do, and I only go out of my house to walk my dog, and so there is not much chance of me meeting a lovely man, but we never know I suppose?! I also feel that it would be too much mental stuff to weigh someone down with, but again, we never know what is around the corner. Because we are people pleasers, maybe we will meet someone who wants to be loved, and will care and love us back the way we deserve to be. xxxx
