What if the reason you stop yourself from feeling good… is because a part of you doesn’t believe you’re allowed to?
In this powerful coaching session, I sit down with Margaret to explore a deeply embedded belief so many of us carry: the idea that we don’t deserve good things.
We’re not just talking about impostor syndrome or surface-level doubt; we’re talking about the root. The part of you that was taught early on that good things don’t last, that joy is dangerous, or that love is something you have to earn.
This session gets raw, honest, and emotional as Margaret shares her story, and we trace the thread from childhood pain and survival to adult self-sabotage and shutdown.
You’ll hear how these patterns don’t just live in your mind, but in your body. And how we can gently meet those parts with compassion, not shame.
This isn’t just about feeling better. It’s about rewriting the script.

And if someone you care about is walking through life quietly convinced they’re they don’t deserve good things, send this their way. It might help them finally believe they do.
