Last Day – Camp Sven

Everything begins with a Question The power of a question. That’s where it all started and I’m marvelling now at the power of a question. ‘What’s wrong with me?’, The question that started my journey with Sven Erlandson’s self-help book, ‘There’s a Hole in My Love Cup’. I knew intimately what was wrong with myContinue reading “Last Day – Camp Sven”

Day 6 – Camp Sven

Unhealthy habits, ones I’ve been embroiled in for decades, they’re going, going, gone.

You might think because of the suffering my ex caused me I don’t have a very high opinion of men. Not true, I don’t have a high opinion of him, but I’ve had the privilege of having some amazing men in my life. I was lucky enough to have incredible male role models growing up.Continue reading “Let’s hear it for the boys!”
