It was December 2017, and I had just endured two exhausting days at my family home. What was meant to be another attempt at a decent Christmas quickly unraveled. Old patterns between me, my mum, and my sister resurfaced - sharp words, misunderstandings, barbed comments, and endless crossed wires. Even our partners couldn’t soften the blow.
Suddenly, I was no longer my adult self - I was back in my childhood seat. Anxious. Hyper-aware. Trying desperately to tiptoe around emotional landmines. By the time I left, I felt bruised and battered. That feeling stayed with me well into January.
That’s when I realized something had to change. I couldn’t keep letting family interactions drain me for weeks afterward. I was tired of replaying every conversation in my head, trying to “fix” dynamics that weren’t mine to fix, and dragging my self-esteem out of the gutter after every visit.
So I created a reset plan for myself.
A way to be around family without losing myself.
A way to reconnect easily with my adult, grounded, higher self so I could return to balance more quickly and easily.
And in this one-hour workshop, I will teach you how to do the same.
Here’s what you’ll learn:
How to steady your nervous system quickly after those loaded comments or pointed questions.
How to stay connected to your more healed self, instead of being pulled backwards into old family roles.
How to stop the endless mental replay that eats up your energy long after the conversations have ended.
This workshop is about restoring your power.
So you can walk away from family interactions feeling steady, clear, and in control of yourself, no matter how destabilising they may be.
You’ve worked hard on yourself.
You’ve read the books. Gone to therapy. Learned better boundaries.
Most days, you feel stronger, calmer, more like you.
But then—one phone call, one dinner, one throwaway comment from your mom or sibling—and suddenly it’s like you’re right back in your childhood home:
Defending yourself, even when you don’t want to.
Feeling criticised, overlooked, or judged.
Carrying the stress long after the conversation ends.
It’s exhausting. And it leaves you wondering:
“Why do I keep getting pulled back into this when I know better?”
It’s because your nervous system learned, early on, that family = danger. Those old patterns are deeply embedded and still running the show and affecting your reactions.
But here’s the good news: you can learn how to respond differently and no longer let your families issues affect your life. You can calm the storm inside you in the moment, or soon after — instead of spiraling for hours or days.
And that’s exactly what this workshop will teach you.
In just one hour, you’ll learn how to…
✨ Reset quickly after a triggering conversation so you don’t spend the rest of your day replaying it.
✨ Stop the spiral of overthinking and self-blame when family drama hits.
✨ Leave family stress where it belongs—without carrying it around in your body and mind.
✨ Build a “reset routine” you can rely on after visits, calls, or conflict.
