Let’s Talk About Addiction with Nicola Vivian

This week I’m joined by my great friend and fellow coach, Alice Law from LAWALI. Alice is a coach who specialises in stress management and energy. And while she has reiki and coaching qualifications, she maintains it has been her most prominent life experiences of the past ten years that have allowed her to have her own unique insights into coaching & stress management and her own way of thinking to help others.   Her losses proceeded to come directly after one another, there were times when she felt like no stone was being left unturned. Alice found her happiness was quickly disappearing, while being faced with various emotional and material difficulties at the same time.   It was during this time that she realised something had to change, and with the realisation that everything else was out of her control, that something had to be HER.   I admire Alice hugely, aside from the fact that she’s a wonderful human, she is an incredible example to us all of just how we can use what we overcome during the darkest days and most heart wrenching months to change the lives of others.     In this episode we discuss just how Alice learnt to turn her loss into power and how to question & shake yourself out of stress.     You can find Alice on Instagram @lawali_life Visit Alice’s website here: lawali-life.com

I’m especially excited about today’s podcast because we’re talking about sex… which is something I haven’t yet spoken about on any of my TBalance channels!⁣ ⁣ ⁣ The wonderful Kate Moyle is here with me. Kate is a C-O-R-S-T accredited Psychosexual and relationship therapist. She works empathetically with people to recognise their personal understanding of their sexuality and sexual health; with the view that issues have roots in psychology, emotion, the physical body and a person’s history and culture. Ultimately her aim is to help people get to a place of sexual health, happiness and wellbeing. ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ Today we are talking about sex in this modern day, how to break down sexual fears and the importance of communication.⁣ ⁣ ⁣ www.katemoyle.co.uk⁣ Instagram @KateMoyleTherapy

William Pullen is a qualified psychotherapist, and today he’s here to tell us all about his theory: DRT (Dynamic Running Therapy). ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ By combining movement with talking therapy, DRT addresses the different elements of the human “operating system”, capitalising on the synergy found in the mind, body and spirit. We have found that when people make progress in one of these areas it is often also experienced in another. DRT capitalises on this complimentary system to facilitate a sense of momentum and growth.⁣ ⁣ ⁣ William believes that change comes about by clearing a path to where we want to be, not forcing our way through to it.⁣ ⁣ ⁣ In this episode prepare to learn how to walking or running with a thought helps to drastically break down ones blockages. We discuss what an empathy walk is and how this can immensely create intimacy in your relationships.⁣ ⁣ Download the DRT app here  ⁣ Check out William’s website here ⁣ ⁣ Find William on instagram here 

I’m welcoming the wonderful Nicola Vivian to the podcast. Nicola is a self proclaimed addict. Following the fatal heroin overdose of her boyfriend when she was just 24, Nicola spiralled into the depths of grief. ⁣  ⁣  ⁣ Her way out from it was to examine, profoundly and meticulously, the mysterious forces of addiction and the emotional vulnerability from which they grow. She has recently published her book, My Will, which is both a brutally uncompromising tale of addiction and an exquisite love story.⁣  ⁣  ⁣ In this episode we chat about all things addiction, how patterns formed in early life translate into patterns within relationships, the ins and outs of codependency and much more.      You can buy a copy of Nicky’s book here You can find Nicky on instagram here
