🤗🤗🤗THIS🤗🤗🤗

💜 I think I was more adept at getting through things when I was young. Although, was I suppressing - dissociating my emotions?
Maybe it wasn’t safe enough to disclose?
Lots of unanswered questions that will never be answered due to mothers death.
Healing is a lifelong journey. 💜

New out now! Looking at how we cope when life happens!!!
Inspired by our 340mile round trip to Birmingham, only to be stood up by 😥; how we 'made good' on that situation...and how I enough to hike (not literally!) to London 2days later in the that disaster wouldn't strike twice!
(Plot spoiler: I was rewarded for my PERSEVERANCE!!!)

SO much travelling for this week; sadly we did not see him in Birmingham…but I dared to (wow! Did I though!!!) and went ahead and was fab!

It wasn’t the same on my own; but C said it would “make up for the disappointment of Birmingham” if London ROCKED 🤘🤘🤘- and, it really did.

Truth.

Grief has no time frame, so take as long as you need. Sending love to everybody missing somebody right now.

Yeah, so *that* happened…and we are trying our very, very best to SPIN this folks!!! 🤦‍♀️

Aside from the fact that the concert is now being classed as “postponed” (not cancelled)…therefore no refunds 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️…aside from THAT…🤬🤬🤬

Pick ‘n mix was eaten; karaoke to choonz was had; we weren’t the cars involved in the accidents/breakdowns
Dinner wasn’t as planned (too late) - but it was gooood (needed!); we got our steps in walking to the venue (he cancelled an hour before! 🤷‍♀️); the late night Greggs on the walk back to the hotel was the find of the century…and breakfast this morning was nice!

Food has saved the day, 🤣; but so has the star that is Murphy Dog, such a good boy

The time has finally come…we’ve (just about!) survived the longest October on record (am I right?!) 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️

…and now it’s Boone time!

in Birmingham tomorrow & then I head to London on Monday too - yeah, we’re fans eh! 🤪

We love a here at and our is set to go; we will play our favourite choonz; 🐕‍🦺Murphy’s case is packed; dinner is booked; we’re ready to welcome Benson to both the North & South; we’re looking forward to breakfast (the best meal of the day!) post-Booning…yes, as you can possibly tell, we have a lot to look forward to this weekend.

That’s exactly what we’ve used to get us through a very testing month and we intend to enjoy every bit (please be kind M5, go on!)

Very happy to say ✔️


Until next week folks…🤗🤗🤗

We took ourselves to be with the yesterday (we do our best thinking there) and diarised our (1st Tuesday of the month) & (last Sunday of the month) for the first half of 2026.

We here at TT have felt that this October has been particularly long (there’s still another week to go, what the…?!?!🤬)

In this we talk about ‘how’ to hang on in there when you’re having a hard time.

To get us out of the other side of this loooooooong month we have a busy week ahead!!! 🤗🤗🤗 & *drumroll*… !!! 🤸‍♀️🤸‍♀️🤸‍♀️

These are the things that have been getting us through (something to look forward to!)

6 days to go folks,

20/10/2025

went back to today, to be precise; back for our third year with the 3rd year medical students; advocating for better trauma informed care for their patients.

Helping to create change, because

Here’s to a better and brighter future with the newest medics of tomorrow.

This starts out as an appreciation of Point Break; before it segues into - now you ‘get me’, right?

There is no “right way” or “wrong way” to - people talk about the but then there is the …let’s face it, there is A LOT written about - one of our few certainties in life (the irony!)
Either way, all I know is the level of that we humans experience when someone we love loses their ‘fight’ and we are the ones left behind.

Life is really serving us up some at Transcend Trauma right now! So, I guess we're just here to say that sometimes life is just hard, it's emotional, and it's complex, but the only way out is through.

So far, you've (and we've) survived every bad day you've had, you'll (we'll) survive this too.

Look for the light in the storm, focus on the end goals, and let people support you. Believe us, we're working on this stuff too! Wishing you all the best as you work through whatever your hard days are.
