Get to know Personal Freedom's Founder,
Pamela England.
Because of a fractured childhood, I spent my 20’s hiding my true self. I can recall the emptiness I felt, as though something was always missing. From the outside looking in, I thought no one could tell. People always thought I was strong, capable and secure within myself.
No matter what I did, including taking various substances and going from partner to partner, that emptiness would not go away.
Then I had one of the biggest light bulb moments of my life.
Someone shared with me that we – as human beings – don’t communicate or interpret information in the same way. In fact, there are four unique styles of communication amongst human beings, which define how each of us best understand and communicate in our daily lives.
I also discovered the difference between true feelings and emotions, and learnt that we process things through feelings, which lead to thoughts that we then put into action. Feel, Think, Act, not the other way around – Think, Feel, Act – as society commonly tells us.
Hearing and understanding this information was like someone had opened up the door and let the sun into my life. Over time I learnt to trust myself, believe in my wisdom, and share my kindness.
I also realised that I believed my life controlled me; controlled how I felt, thought and acted. When I learnt that I control my life, and that deep down I both know and understand what I really need and want, life started to make a whole lot more sense.
I used to squash my feelings of kindness, empathy and desire to share, worried that people would find me weak. Now I welcome my kindness and willingness to share openly, and use these traits to help both myself and others.
