Is this the life you intended to live?
Â
You have a successful life but it's really hard to hold it all together.
You push your poor mind to think through overwhelm, your body to function through exhaustion, skidding into every weekend as if youâve won a survival game.
You're really good at spinning plates on spinning plates and putting your own needs last.
Â
You wonder if you just want too much.
You daydream about living a simpler life.
But the truth is you donât want to give up anything of the things youâve worked so hard for.
Â
You just want your life to work for you.
 WELCOME TO
THE GENTLE REBELLION

GENTLE

- PlayfullyÂ
- In your own time
- In your own way
Â
Â
REBELLION
- Against overwhelm towards clarity and focus
- Against exhaustion towards energy and fitness
- Against pressure towards freedom
- Against struggle towards adventure
- Against forcing yourself into a superhero suit just to get through your impossible week towards the freedom to be yourself
- Against self-judgement towards self-love

There is nothing wrong with you.
You do not want too much.
And you can have the life you worked hard for.
Â
But youâre going to have to do things differently.
The traditional way of pushing on through works, until it doesnâtâŚ
Itâs time to rebel against that nonsense.
(But not too loudly and without causing any disruption that will only add to your overwhelm.)
Â
Itâs time for The Gentle Rebel Way.

- Overwhelm and exhaustion are just the price you pay to have a full life.
- You need to toughen up, get more organised and manage your stress better.
- Life is hard. Success requires sacrifice.

- Overwhelm and exhaustion are useful course corrections.
- You need to get to know yourself better so you can make the life you have work better for you.
- Life is an adventure. You choose your adventure.
Overloading your mind, treating your body as an inconvenient problem to be solved and ignoring the wisdom of your heart - thatâs the old way of doing things.
Â
To have the full life you want to lead, you need all of you functioning highly -Â a strong mind, a fit body and a courageous heart.
