It’s been just over a week since the “are you happy” conversation and the elephant is still following us around, in and out of every room, hiding in the silence between our words…out of sight but not out of mind. We have had fleeting moments and opportunities to discuss everything that was said but never enough time to truly unpack the emotions, feelings and fears that came out with them. Whilst I desperately want to clear the air and explain why my answer was no and why that’s ok, I have no idea where to even start! How do you explain to someone something that you don’t fully understand yourself? How do you tell someone who puts you at the centre of their universe that it’s not enough?
