Dear Reader, after a six-month hiatus, I finally published another video on my YouTube channel! 😅 I had a great time putting this one together - it's a reply to a lovely ENFJ viewer's questions about communication styles, and how to get their ESFP partner to pay more focused attention while they're out and about. You can watch it here: Although I don't mention them in the video, it was also a useful reminder that I've had all 178 variations of "Your Love Profiles" reports saved on my computer... when they should be put to good use, helping you better understand yourself and your partner!! So if you'd like to talk through your Type pairing, you'll find a link below to buy. It comes with a private Q&A where we can chat specifically about your situation. No pressure, just saying it's there in case you've been wondering. Ok, now I wanna say something else. I'm turning 50 next month. Having various feelings about it, but generally all rather chill. I've long thought that growing older is a privilege denied to many, and seeing how my life (mental, emotional, relational) has changed for the better through my 40s kinda makes me look forward to the next decade. To celebrate, I've invited my friends to a Zoom party for which I'm gonna make a lemon cake (vegan) and a playlist (some Neue Deutsche Welle and lots of 80s UK pop so far). Really looking forward to that. 🥳 So just because I'm actually honestly feeling spontaneous, don't buy your copy of the self-discovery video or Your Love Profiles just yet - because I will celebrate my birthday with a 50% discount code. People do that, right? By all means, check out the links to learn more, do let me know if you have any questions, and then if you're ready to buy, I'll have a code for you in my next newsletter. Deal? Cool. Better go set that up now; the Squarespace shop backend has been a bit of a pain. More soon! Cheers, PS: Interested in something more tailored to you and your relationship, but not ready for coaching? I'd still love to support you! Here are some resources you might find helpful (links): |

Dear Reader, summer has arrived in the Northern Hemisphere, and with that comes a shift in priorities and, not gonna lie, some lethargy. So just to manage expectations, you'll probably hear a little less from me over the next several weeks. Ok, I might send a few pieces from the archives that have resonated in the past and deserve another airing, just so you won't forget all about me. ;-) For today, I want to share a new series I've been doing on my YouTube channel: reading what people have...
Dear Reader, We've recently subscribed to Showtime again, and are finally able to catch up with one of my favorite TV shows, Couples Therapy. In case you're unfamiliar, it's where a real psychoanalyst (Dr. Orna Guralnik) talks to real couples (so many) about their issues. In Season 3b, there's a particular one that caught my interest, Josh and Natasha. I may have started watching this show purely for infotainment, but the more training I've been receiving, the more I pay attention to Orna's...
Dear Reader, Last week I wrote about a question I’ve been having about whether Type preferences might have evolved in part as a response to childhood trauma, or to what extent our innate preferences influenced how we developed and dealt with that. My friend Cindy emailed me a paper about whole Type and the archetypal Self in response, and that helped put some shape around something else I’ve been noodling on. So this week, I’m going to go a little further “out there” and ask, what if the...
