~What Olwynne's clients are saying about their experience working with her~
"During a period of heightened emotional chaos, confusion and negative self narrative; Olwynne provided me with the guidance and the support to forge a new way forward; she engaged with me to use this time to sit with my grief and discover a new sense of purpose, self identity and strength.
Olwynne welcomed me with true equanimity, of which I will always be so very grateful. "  -  Belinda 2019
‘Olwynne guides without fear or judgement.
She shows you how to be your own best friend.”  - Caroline T
If it wasn't for Olwynne's classes, I don't know where I would be. Some lessons for me were direction and reflection. I came with a history of self loathing, grief and unanswered  questions, Olwynne opened her heart in a non judgemental way offering support and guidance that has allowed me to remember who I am. I now lead with a path of admiration and respect, trust and most of all love. It moved me to change my career path where my own talents allow me to shine, I now love waking up a happier person. I am glad (grateful) Olwynne was there along the way. - JW

​"This journey is not about finding ourselves or our purpose
...it's about unashamedly being ourselves." 
​- Olwynne Cade 2017

'People have always beaten a path to my door, seeking insights into their issues and left with ideas, insights and options to help them 'remember who they are' and change their lives for the better.'

"The only thing that makes sense to me about my life, is that I 'chose' to be here in this life as Olwynne Cade. I chose a meaning filled, heart felt life. I chose the challenges that have come to me, so that I could grow up through them and be who I am today.
​I know with certainty that this will continue to the conclusion of this lifetime and then a new journey will begin."
Don't turn your light down for anyone.
We each have our own journey. 
One we chose before we came here and you have yours and you are allowed to live it to the fullest. 
You are allowed to be happy and not pulled into other people's darkness. ​
The best way to help others is to be a bright light in their darkness. 
You can't do that when you join others in their dark spaces. You are a very special soul.
Just keep being more of you and the world will be a better place for it.
Much love to you xxxx Olwynne

The Voices In My Head 
 - a 5 part blog series

Critical Critic - Part 1
Being more of myself has been the MOST challenging thing I have ever done and I chose a life full of challenges this time around.
I have received brickbats and bouquets in equal amounts and the brick bats really hurt. I am told you have to grow a thicker skin. Mine is still thin and I bruise easily, but I am not going to grow a thicker one, because that will mean that I have to be someone I am not...read more
The Sky Is Falling - Part 2
I know fear intimately. We have had a long association which means that my fight and flight system is a well oiled machine. During the Canterbury earthquakes it got a real work out; I still prick up my senses and react like a Meerkat when I hear a rumbling noise. I consider that is a positive thing as I may need to flee, seek protection or take action. But my unhealthy relationship with fear started at a very early age to deal with the rigours of my home life and the carnage that followed.
Fear has been a constant companion, holding me in its grip, masquerading as the man invisible dark presence that would take over without warning, sabotaging so much of my life...read more.
Is Your Gatekeeper Up To The Job - Part 3
 What is a Gatekeeper you maybe asking?
My personal experience of the Gatekeeper is an archetypal guardian who stands at the threshold of your personal boundaries and vets everything and everyone that wants to enter your personal space. 
They are your energetic intuitive personal PA, Manager or Chief of Staff. Their role is vital for your well-being and your safety on all levels.
Like the medieval Gatekeepers of old they call to whatever and whoever wants to enter your space to identify themselves and their intentions, "Who goes there and what do you want?" If the prospective enteree does not meet the criteria, they are sent packing, the drawbridge remains in place and the portcullis stays lowered...read more.
Get a Haircut - Get A Job - Part 4
​"You are a lazy worthless SOB! You need to smarten up and get a real job! All this stupid follow your dreams stuff is for fairies, sissies and lunatics. You are lazy, plain old lazy do you hear me?"
There he goes again, the Drill Sergeant Major. He shouts his rhetoric as he marches up and down in front of me with his baton under his arm. Buttons highly polished, shoes shined to within an inch of their lives, not a crease out of place and his hair cut to within a centimeter of non-existence. His face is red, with jaw set in his determined self-righteous way. Eyes squinting and widening as he spews forth. We will call him DSM for short. He won't like that!...read more
I'll Save You - Part 5​
Do you remember this movie? Many of you probably weren't born when this movie was made. I still think Christopher Reeve was the best version of Superman. His gentle nature and modesty showed through the superhuman character he brought to life and then into the latter years of his life when he tragically fell from his horse, becoming a quadriplegic. Even in his altered state of disability he was a superhero of the human kind...read more

Bloom Where You Are Planted

I dreamed of a time
Why do we make this journey you may ask? Because we can. Because it is how we learn and grow. Each day of our lives is an act or courage and determination.
I know now that I was going to need a lot of courage to live this life I had chosen.  It would take everything I could muster to get through the early years and what got me there was my dreams of a better life...read more

just be more of yourself
My children would often hear me tell them, "if you want to see who you really are then have a look at your friends." I wanted them to learn that they will attract to themselves that which they are being. Whilst sharing this pearl of wisdom with them, I was also learning to apply it to myself. I can truly say that it served both me and my children well...read more
Well John Cleese - I really am welsh and proud of it!
​It's official! After 55 years of telling people that I am not Welsh, in reply to their query about the origins of my name - Olwynne, I can now say, with great pride - Yes! I am Welsh.
So how did this come about and how did I not know this important piece of information for 55 years? All I can say to that is life is a journey of unfolding mysteries...read more

The Karma Effect
How many times have you said if I only knew then what I know now? I would do things differently. 
​Reincarnation and Karma give us the opportunity to experience multiple lifetimes, electing the life path that offers us our greatest learning experience, reincarnation being a fundamental element in our spiritual tree of life and Karma is a major supporting branch of the divine gift, of being given a second chance. Hopefully you will be given it in your present incarnation and if not you will certainly have another go at it in your next...read more
