Sometimes when we sit down and think about getting in front of a camera, what are the feelings we tend to feel? Anxiety? Stress? Apprehension? Full on fear? Perhaps there is even self-disgust? Sometimes we put all of that aside and we think, let's just try. Then comes a new wave of emotion: fear that the photographer will not do a good job, that you are going to look like a <insert animal you normally associate with yourself>, or worse that the fears that you are just not photogenic will be confirmed. Well I can't do much about that first wave of emotion, but that second wave I can give you a wee break on. I have never had ANYONE stand in front of my camera in the 7 years I have been doing this, that did not captivate me with their beauty. Non-photogenic is not a word in my vocabulary. It just doesn't exist. I have the most good looking clients, because frankly, everyone has this story within them, their personal history, the ingredients that made them who they are when they are sitting in front of me... and that story like any good book or movie, is beautiful. And I spend my time with you capturing that beautiful narrative. And in fact, by the end of the session, you are feeling pretty amazing about yourself as well. So I guess I lied and I can actually help with that first wave of emotion too...

Rewire Your Inner Narrative for Secure Attachment

Your Mind's Default Program

For years, you have been running a script written in the language of uncertainty. Every time silence falls, the old narrative whispers: 'They are leaving.' Every moment of distance, it screams: 'You are not enough.' These are not facts. They are stories you learned to tell yourself to survive an unpredictable world. But survival stories are not life stories. You can edit them.

Step One: Name the Old Script

Before you can rewrite, you must observe. Without judgment, notice the recurring mental patterns. 'I need to prove my worth.' 'If I rest, I will lose them.' 'Love requires constant performance.' Write them down. See them for what they are: repetitive cognitive loops, not truths. This observation alone creates distance, and distance is the first breath of freedom.

Step Two: Replace with Grounded Truth

Each old belief now gets a new counterpart. Where you once thought 'Space means rejection,' you now say 'Space allows both of us to breathe and return more fully.' Where you believed 'I must chase love to keep it,' you now affirm 'Love that requires chasing was never stable.' This is not toxic positivity. This is cognitive restructuring backed by neuroscience—each repetition strengthens new neural pathways.

Step Three: Embody the New Narrative

Words are not enough. You must practice. When anxiety rises, pause. Place a hand on your chest. Breathe. Say to yourself: 'I am safe in this moment. My worth is not determined by someone else's response.' Over time, your nervous system learns to trust the new script. The body begins to believe what the mind is telling it.

Step Four: Allow Repetition Without Perfection

Rewriting a lifetime of conditioning takes time. You will stumble. The old script will flare up—especially under stress. That is not failure. That is the process. Gently, without shame, return to the new narrative. 'I am learning. I am safe. I can hold myself.' Each return is a victory, not a setback.

Conclusion

You are not broken. Your narrative just needs a new chapter. And you are the author. Every time you choose the grounded truth over the anxious story, you are not just thinking differently—you are becoming someone who knows, deep in their bones, that they are safe. Start today. Rewrite one line. Let it echo through your entire being.

✨ If this resonated with your journey, you might find the deep-dive exercises in my Trauma Bond Kit profoundly helpful. You deserve peace.

Happy birthday for yesterday beautiful mummy, you should have been 86.

Day 34: Meet The Splutters The Splutters have a terrible affliction, one of the worse their species can contract..... An affliction called Excusitis! Excusitis is a mental affliction where coaxes you to put off important tasks and develop a mental narrative which ensures you will achieve none of your goals or dreams. The excusitis, The Splutterers have comes in the form of health complaints they believe they have. They believe their health is poor and splutter their way through life, afraid to go after what they really want. Instead, they choose the safe existence within the confines of their comfort zone. However. The Splutters are perfectly healthy! They have seen numerous doctors and despite getting a clean bill of health each time continue to think themselves ill . Ironically, this way of thinking might indeed lead to a sick bed. It is already stealing the best years of their life.... Are you a Splutterer?
