Some topics may trigger or stir up emotions. It is a safe, non-judgemental space so don’t worry if this does happen. If you need a moment to step out - that is more than OK.
That being said, yes some of the topics can feel heavy but I aim to make your time with me fun and informative and have had a lot of positive feedback following previous courses I have ran.
