Feminist Wellness with Beatriz Victoria Albina | Secrecy

For years, I believed keeping things secret was the smarter, safer way to live because if no one saw the real, true, vulnerable me, they couldn’t hurt me, right?

Feminist Wellness with Beatriz Victoria Albina | Inner Child Science

Inner child work is an incredibly useful tool that is part and parcel of my six-month program, Anchored. I was speaking to my client Margaret recently when she told me she felt the concept of inner child work was a tool to blame our parents for the way we are today, and a gateway to…

Feminist Wellness with Beatriz Victoria Albina | Resolutions, Regret and Commitment to You

Tis the season where, for many of us, our thoughts turn to making wildly perfectionistic and fantastical New Year resolutions.
