Is Therapy Worth It?

One of the questions we are often asked at My Practice is: Is therapy worth it? Research has found that counselling can help people achieve greater success in their personal and professional lives, including happier relationships, more fulfilling careers, and financial success. If you are stressed, depressed, having trouble sleeping, or generally feel that your mental health could improve, therapy is an investment worth making.

Why Businesses Fail Due to Shame

Jonathan Riley

Shame destroys businesses from the inside out. You won’t see it on the balance sheet or profit and loss statement, but it still affects our choices, leadership, and how we handle challenges. Most business owners don’t talk about it, but shame is one of the biggest reasons why businesses stall or fail. When we let […]

Is Shame Stopping You From Enjoying Life Assessment

Jonathan Riley

Shame is a heavy feeling that can quietly shape how you see yourself and interact with the world. Many people carry shame without realizing how much it holds them back from living fully, forming strong relationships, or feeling peace. This simple assessment will help you see if shame might be affecting your life in ways […]

Why Shame Stops Us From Enjoying Life

Jonathan Riley

Most of us want to enjoy life, but many of us don’t. We may look around and wonder why everyone else seems happier or more at peace, while we feel stuck. One reason this happens is shame. Shame is the voice inside that says we are not good enough, not lovable, or that something is […]

Why Perfectionism Could Be Holding You Back (And How to Break Free)

Jonathan Riley

Perfectionism sounds like a good thing on the surface. We think striving for perfection will push us to excel, make fewer mistakes, and gain respect. But what if I told you that perfectionism often holds us back rather than propelling us forward? It creates a cycle of stress, self-doubt, and procrastination that can derail even […]

How to Balance Success and Self-Care Without Losing Momentum

Jonathan Riley

As leaders, we’re often told that success requires sacrifice—late nights, long hours, and constant hustle. While hard work is part of achieving big goals, there’s a hidden danger in pushing ourselves too far. When self-care takes a backseat, the consequences can be costly: burnout, poor decisions, and even the loss of what we’ve worked so […]

The Hidden Mental Health Struggles of Entrepreneurs (And How to Manage Them)

Jonathan Riley

Entrepreneurship often seems like the ultimate dream: building something from the ground up, pursuing a passion, and creating a legacy. But beneath the surface lies a reality many entrepreneurs hesitate to talk about—the mental health struggles that come with the relentless pressures of running a business. While the journey can be rewarding, the emotional toll […]

Breaking Free from Imposter Syndrome as a Leader

Jonathan Riley

As business owners and leaders, we’re often our harshest critics. Despite our achievements, many of us feel like frauds, waiting for the moment someone will call us out. This is imposter syndrome—a persistent fear that we’re not as capable as others believe. It’s surprisingly common, but if left unchecked, it can hold us back from […]

How Stress Can Undermine Your Performance (And How to Take Control)

Jonathan Riley

Stress comes with the territory for business owners and corporate executives. Deadlines, high expectations, and constant problem-solving can weigh us down. But how do we know when stress is no longer just a part of the job and starts affecting our performance? Ignoring the signs can lead to mistakes, poor decisions, and eventually burnout. Let’s […]

Why High Performers Face Burnout (and How to Stop It)

Jonathan Riley

As business owners and corporate executives, we push ourselves hard to succeed. We set high standards, chase ambitious goals, and often operate at full capacity for long stretches. While this drive can lead to success, it also puts us at a higher risk for burnout. This isn’t just about feeling tired; burnout can impact our […]

Why Burnout is a Leadership Crisis

Jonathan Riley

Burnout isn’t just a personal issue—it’s a leadership crisis that can undermine entire organisations. When leaders face burnout, their capacity to think clearly, make sound decisions, and inspire their teams diminishes. Even worse, burnout can hurt employees, lower productivity, and damage the workplace culture. Yet, leader burnout is often ignored or seen as just part […]

Do I Need Therapy?

Life is full of ups and downs, problems and challenges. It’s common to wonder if you actually need therapy. Admitting that you need help and reaching out can help you get back on track. Going to therapy isn’t a sign of weakness or something to be ashamed of. It’s also important to understand that you don’t need to have a diagnosed mental health condition in order to benefit from therapy.
