Empowering Clients To Get Unstuck, Walk Their Own Path, And Have A Great Life
I was sitting in a museum garden the other day and there were a few grey pigeons under foot. My son pointed at it excitedly saying “bird … bird”! In his eyes he saw this amazing living creature moving around and was excited to see it was up close. I nodded eagerly in agreement with him, wanting to encourage his enthusiasm for life.
