Some supportive tips when you most need it
What this is
You have found this page for a reason!
My journey into coaching started with going through my own difficult time. If you think you're alone, you're not. I've been there, others are right now and more will continue to be.
There is no shame or embarrassment in admitting sometimes life can get the better of us. In fact, it's a necessary first step to acknowledge and accept.
Here are some of the resources I used when I didn't know what else to do. Burnt out, anxious and depressed - they worked for me and I hope the same for you too.
Be what you need for others

Change the narrative

Think about these daily
Make a list of things you do & people you see. Assign a colour for how you feel before, during and after (traffic light system).
Try to do mostly green (where possible)
Take a mental break from your own struggles and try to help another person who deserves it. A small act. Sometimes lifting someone else's day can lift ours too. Empower yourself to help others and yourself too.
Learn and understand a bit more about you
(It's surprising how a personally assessment can make you feel heard & understood)
I can't emphasise enough the benefit just moving a little bit more, sleeping better and eating better did for my health. Nothing intense. What you already know is more than enough to get started. Start small and see how it goes. You need to pull the cart to where you want it to go. Remember too, often, a problem shared is a problem halved. Find and speak to someone you can trust.
