The final part of our series is a conversation about worth, identity, and the power of community — told through the lens of nature.

Laura shares how the autumn season reflects her own journey through perimenopause, why confidence often dips during life transitions, and how reconnecting with nature and others can help you rebuild it.

We talk about:

• The value of slowing down and aligning with your personal “season”
• A simple daily ritual Laura uses to ground herself before the day begins
• The surprising exercise with a rock that can help you release emotional burdens
• Why community is essential when navigating change
• How to take one small, meaningful step outdoors this week

It’s a warm, thoughtful, and empowering close to a series that proves healing doesn’t have to happen indoors.

What can a tree, a bird, or a shift in the weather teach us about ourselves?

In Part 2, Laura takes us deeper into the practices and philosophy that shape her work outdoors. We talk about nature as a co-counsellor, the science of how our brains respond to natural sounds, and the quiet wisdom of the changing seasons.

We also open up about:

• How outdoor therapy helps with emotional regulation and perspective
• What the cycles of nature can teach us about patience, acceptance, and change
• Why perimenopause is more than a list of “symptoms” — and how Laura is navigating it herself
• The small, realistic lifestyle choices that can shift wellbeing

This episode is rich with insight and full of moments that might change the way you look at the next tree you pass.

🎧 Listen now and see how the natural world can help you heal from the inside out.

• Why nature can reduce the intensity some people feel in therapy
• The unique insights a therapist gains by walking alongside their client
• How the environment can shift the power dynamic and give clients more choice

🎧 Press play, step outside, and walk with us into a new way of seeing therapy.

We talk about what real healing looks like, how confidence and self-love evolve through the journey, and why everyone has the power to create lasting change through small, consistent choices.
