Hold On Pain Ends: Naomi Gilmour: Motivational Speaker, Business Woman and Suicide Prevention AdvocateIf you are lucky enough to live into mid-life and beyond, you will likely have experienced some profound loss. My guest this week, Naomi Gilmour, has taken the brave step of facing the debilitating grief of loss and, in the process, rebuilt her sense of self and now shares her learnings with others. Before we recorded this week’s episode Naomi and I went for an early morning dip in a lake. It was pouring with rain, but a beautiful rainbow lit the sky when the clouds parted. Rainbows are especially symbolic for Naomi, and we both believed that the spirit of her beloved brother, Nick was there with us at that moment. Please put your hand on your heart  and allow yourself a slither of happiness as you listen to Naomi’s story. Naomi and I discuss  How diversity and loss have shaped Naomi’s understanding of her purpose Stripping back the layers to recover a sense of self and heal. How Inner work has connected to who Naomi is, what she is here to be and what brings her joy and making no apology for this.  Finding purpose in pain and creating an impact.     The Importance of being alone and cultivating inner peaceLoneliness; learning to be alone and silence the mind.The importance of stepping backMaking time to reframe work The fear of what people think and getting over external judgement and validation.The importance of self and inner peace and how looking to the outside won't make you happy.   Being happy in the moment. Slithers of HappinessThe joy of small signs in day-to-day lifeEnjoying micro-momentsAnchoring into things.AnchoringFeeling comfortable in uncertain times.Dropping anchor to stabilise yourself and looking towards a lighthouse. Using a token to remind us that everything is always in flux, and this too shall pass. The Significance of Your HandsOur hands have been with us for a lifetime.Naomi's definition of hope - Hold On Pain Ends.How to drink life whilst it's fizzy. ReferencesNaomi’s Book: Love You Love Your Life https://www.amazon.co.uk/Love-You-Your-Life-Discover-ebook/dp/B09YKWHV6WYou can find Naomi here: https://www.happyhearthq.com/about/https://iamnaomivictoria.com/ The book I gave to Naomi: is Extreme You Step Up.
