In this episode, Pete speaks to Lorna Doorley a holistic reflexologist, mother, stand-up comedian, business owner and world record holder!

Lorna reclaimed her life from co-dependency and addiction to become a passionate person with a strong urge, will and desire to help others, especially women. Listen in today to hear of her journey to a brighter life and how she helps others do the same.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• We don’t have to rely on changing ourselves on the outside through things like diet or using others to self-regulate. There is another way to live.
• Lorna believes in a holistic approach to her reflexology and massage, this means she looks at the whole person and how everything ties in together, it’s one big picture.
• Fire in the belly to Lorna is being authentic. She says there is only one version of her now which wasn’t always the case. She follows spiritual goals and values to live as authentically and as well as she can.
• Lorna has always had a drive to show and help women feel what she felt. That they could live a different way. But she was unsure on how to carry that message to them. But by retraining in reflexology and massage with a holistic approach she is teaching women how to truly take care of themselves. Women are the caregivers in society, we aren’t always good at looking after number one.
• Having boundaries and feeling grounded are so important for a balanced and happy life. Lorna makes a conscious effort to ground herself each morning and that helps her keep her boundaries. So she then doesn’t take on other people’s problems and doesn’t fall into her old role of being ‘the fixer’.
• Lorna did well and enjoyed most of school. She then got a degree in social work and became a social worker at 21. She did this for quite a few years until she had her eldest daughter and then became a stay at home mother.
• She found the years of being a stay at home mother quite difficult, it was a hard period in her life. After having all five of her children she eventually started to go on her spiritual journey, she gave up alcohol, became free from many other things and began to find out who she truly was.
• Lorna changed her mindset around her body image completely. She believes in body positivity and no longer subscribes to diet culture and the way society dictates what a ‘good’ body is. Her heart breaks for women who still torture themselves every day because of the BS women are brainwashed with about their image since childhood.

“Stress is an undercurrent and a factor in so many chronic illnesses”

“There’s always a way to bring change”

“I ran from things I wasn’t able to cope with”

“You’ve got to be uncomfortable and unsatisfied for someone to sell you a product”

“It was incredible and I have never looked in the mirror since and said ‘Oh I don’t like this part or that part’. My body is amazing, it gets me up every morning and does everything”
