ABGW - Amazing, Brilliant, Gorgeous, Wonderful
From struggle to strength, with care you can feel.
ABGW stands for Amazing, Brilliant, Gorgeous, Wonderful. ABGW helps women who feel “not quite happy” in a life that looks good on paper move from survival mode to self-led strength, with practical tools, gentle humour, and zero fluff.
ABGW is Amazing, Brilliant, Gorgeous, Wonderful: A Trauma-Aware Project by Cheryl Paris. I work with women who feel misaligned in a life that’s “fine” but not fulfilling. Through conversations, coaching prompts, and small doable practices, I help you move from constant coping to steady, self-led living. Gentle where it matters, firm where it counts, always respectful of your pace.

Unlocking the Present: How Nostalgia Affects Your Mind

Welcome back, fabulous listeners, to another enlightening episode of ABGW! I’m Cheryl, your guide on this journey of self-discovery and empowerment.
In this special miniseries, we’re diving into those fleeting five-minute moments that can transform our lives by helping us breathe amidst the chaos. Today, we're addressing a common struggle: the tendency to dwell on the past and how it can hold you back from embracing the present.
Ever found yourself reminiscing about the good old days? You’re not alone. But what if I told you that those nostalgic thoughts might be keeping you stuck?
In this episode, I’ll share five telltale signs that you might be living in the past. From daydreaming about yesteryears to clinging onto items that remind you of former times, these patterns can be subtle yet powerful. Recognising them is not a sign of failure; it’s the first step towards liberation.
We’ll explore how awareness acts as your passport back to the present, allowing you to reclaim your mental space. The past has shaped you, yes, but it doesn’t have to define you. Each small step you take today can lead to a brighter, more balanced future. So, let’s break free from the chains of nostalgia and make room for growth and joy in the here and now.
Remember, progress is progress—no matter how small. If something resonates with you during this episode, don’t just sit with it; take action! One mindful choice, one conscious breath, can set the wheels of change in motion. Your journey is uniquely yours, and every step counts.
Join me as we embark on this path of self-awareness and empowerment. Let’s embrace the present together and move towards a life that is truly amazing, brilliant, gorgeous, and wonderful.
