Have you ever had a box containing fifty, ten yard long extension cables, all tangled together, knowing that one day, you will have to sit down and sort them all out? Well, that's what it felt like when I first visited Carol Gordon. I knew what was wrong, where I wanted to get to, but how and where to start? The first step admitting things are not right is the biggest hurdle. After that, with Carol Gordon's expertise, things slowly start to make sense.
Being practical and impatient, I wanted to give my muddled box of cables to Carol, with an instruction saying: "Sort this out and give it back to me with all contents neatly arranged and tidy". Not quite as easy as that. Carol, over the following 8 months, showed me how to untangle things, guiding me through the muddle, explaining how I got into that mess in the first place and how to deal with it.
At the end of our time together, I believe I came away with two things. Firstly, a far greater understanding of myself and how to move forward, and secondly, the ability to prevent the past repeating itself.
Where would I be now, having not met Carol? ... I shudder to think. Thank you Carol.
