Why is this generation speaking in little dots that don't say anything?  How do we navigate freedom of speech?  Books on my reading list that I've not got to yet: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/110193.The_Veil_and_the_Male_Elite https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1617.Night

It's mercury retrograde so of course, there is a tiny little blip in the audio I can't edit out!   And this episode has not been posted on Spotify?!  So I have left all the links out and let's see if it will be included now?  Thanks for your understanding Naoisé (the joys of these 3 weeks spins with a planet of communication )  

A very reflective podcast since it's 13 years yesterday since I got the keys to my school. Thinking about how I don't need the person opposite to be me. To even shut down aspects of myself to be less reactive in order to be of more help to others. Feeling my way through why my own report at 16 wasn't very helpful to me. 

*it's mercury retrograde so of course, there is a tiny little blip in the audio I can't edit out!   Please create a space for people to talk. A culture of this could save lives.   The Speech transcript again: https://www.npr.org/2010/01/18/122701268/i-have-a-dream-speech-in-its-entirety?t=1643110301423 The horrendous bullying that led to an 18-year-old taking his own life even after the chance to...

The disconnect we now have between instant gratification - instant response and the natural course of development and how long change creates. For years I have done a task with students to compare Rosa Parks and Dr Martin Luther King Jr. Both in terms of difference of personality to both create an impact as the best of themselves but also the length of time change takes.  References: https://www.h...

My main task - what it is most said to me at the end of a teen session - or any session really regardless of age  “I feel seen" - “I feel you get me" Being seen - ironically it’s only when we feel seen that we bring the best of us to a group or a collective. So why is this generation living in turmoil? Not feeling enough?  Books I mention: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/50622390-just-as-i-am?...

It's not a fad. It's an outing. It's a big deal to pick your pronouns.  I want to journey as Naoisé in the world but recognise the difference in others journeys to mine and hold them in their truth. It's not about just being in the club. It's about being in your wholeness.

Introduction to season 7 of the podcast - why did I pick to focus on teens for this series? Why is the world harder to grow up in right now? That's going to be the focus of this series. Bad patterns don't just continue - they are about the choices people feel they can make. What they deserve.  The simplest way for teens to change is to ask for help - but they learn at home if this is too shameful...

This is a podcast in lessons on looking to biographies to find yourself.  I prescribe biographies for everyone I work with regardless of age. This is also a lot of what I don’t talk about living in the gap because when I do I feel projected at ... so I thought it would be good for me to walk the talk for you all. These are the sorts of simple podcasts which feel like jumping off a cliff for me. Fi...

Or what I call the Projection Zone. When people no longer hear what you are saying - they are so focused on the gap from where you are working from that they can't reach you - just project.   Quote I use: "Everything that irritates us about others can lead us to an understanding of ourselves." Carl Jung

Why I have been bullied my whole life ... that's the alternative title and how I had to splinch myself to understand why others needed to do this to me.

“Loneliness does not come from having no people around, but from being unable to communicate the things that seem important to oneself, or from holding certain views which others find inadmissible. “ Jung What is that 4th blue doughnut stage?

The dates were all a year out in my last podcast - why? hat relationship do I have to time? What are cycles and development so much more important for me?  I forgot to add that in fact, I feel these are the roots of ageing concerns - people who focus on cycles and development don't worry about ageing. They live for growth to the day they die - they don't stop changing/growing/evolving and wait to...

This is an introduction to series 6 of the podcast. It is about working with all the levels of development. What do I mean by levels? I have shared two systems below to view them differently. Why are people stuck on different levels of growth? This is what this series is about. Why are we following people who are sharing such conspiracy content to the world?  As usual, this is a journey for me to...

Walking the talk - I need a week to recharge my own batteries and give myself think time for a big podcast which is brewing in me!  We may be wrapping up this series too and switching gears again - same themes, the same purpose but I feel a shift on the horizon...     Thank you 

There are always themes to my work and the current one is being translator - sometimes I work very closely with the 'students' but other times I work with their environments. I translate what unconditional love is which was the purpose of my first book Journey to Unconditional love hosted on my Patreo. I have watched the change in people's relationships - people they never thought they'd be able t...

What has COVID and lockdown brought to the surface? What is social? Can you force it? What happens when you do? Why have we made something that so many have fought for so complex?  I wrote this quote a long time ago now -  "Everyone has 3 fundemental needs; to be liked to have a purpose & to know where they belong." Naoisé, April 2010.
