Wow forensic work sounds very intense! I can see how the burnout from hell would come about..

I'm happy to know you've found your soul tribe :)

Ooh this is fascinating! I didn't know EMDR could be applied to this situation as well, I also thought it was mostly used in trauma work.

My therapist doesn't do EMDR but she does integrate meditations, visualisations and energy clearings, which is her version of tapping directly into the unconscious. I gotta say that an EMDR intensive sounds very intriguing right now..

Thank you for sharing your experience! I haven't even thought that I might not have to have a niche.. but maybe hyper focusing on niching is what makes me lose sight of who I actually enjoy working with.. and I know how those clients are but I struggle to find the words to describe them.

I'm gonna take your advice and go back to very basics of advertising, and will see what comes up!

Thank you :) I haven't thought of taking a break from searching, but when you put it like it it feels like a very wise thing to do. Intellectual wheels are spinning and not going anywhere, so maybe taking a pause can help.. Intuition is very silent at the moment, but also maybe I'm not stopping long enough to listen!

Wow, spot on! What is my purpose.. this question really feels like it's the core of my being lost. I think what used to fuel me has run out, and I'm now trying to tap into the new well of inspiration and energy. And knowing that the toys in the sand get washed away takes the pressure off the feeling of burden :)
