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.
The names in shared stories have been changed to protect the privacy of individuals.

From Shame to Strength: Embracing Self-Compassion and Resilience
Ever felt like an imposter despite achieving great heights? You're not alone. In our latest episode, we unpack the powerful grip of shame and its insidious effects on our mental health and self-worth. Through the compelling story of Sarah, a high-powered lawyer crippled by feelings of inadequacy, we explore how even the most successful individuals can feel unworthy. Drawing from Brené Brown’s insights on shame and my own journey to becoming a hypnotherapist, we dive into the unconscious benefits of self-compassion and how to turn shame into a source of empowerment and healing. We encourage listeners to face their fears, seek support, and reclaim their strength for a more resilient life.
Shift your perspective on failure and discover the healing power of self-compassion in the second part of our episode. Listen to how Stephen's failed investment became a pivotal learning opportunity and how Emma overcame the shame of her divorce through forgiveness. We discuss practical tools like journaling, gratitude diaries, and self-compassion breaks, emphasizing that our past mistakes don't define us. Personal growth flourishes through self-reflection and human connection, as illustrated by John’s artistic evolution and Lucy’s journey out of isolation. Tune in to find out how vulnerability and reflection can nurture resilience and foster emotional intelligence.
