A support worker from called Carolynhttps://www.google.com/adsense/new/u/0/pub-3691500166505297/privacymessaging

Share a story about someone who had a positive impact on your life.

List the people you admire and look to for advice… There are several people I look to for advice. To be very honest, Susanna, when she was alive, was my greatest and most loved confidante. Other people I look to for advice are Adrian and Russell,  both are very good men and have a lotContinue reading “The people I admire and look to for advicehttps://www.google.com/adsense/new/u/0/pub-3691500166505297/privacymessaging”

How do you unwind after a demanding day? The first thing I need to express is that given I no longer work in mental health, I no longer regularly have demanding days. I like that as a writer, I can work at my own pace and don’t have to rush to meet deadlines or others’Continue reading “Unwinding after a demanding dayhttps://www.google.com/adsense/new/u/0/pub-3691500166505297/privacymessaging”
