Rush

Jan 19, 2014

Rowena J Ronson sees the movie Rush (2013) and wonders where you will draw your line… 

Ron Howard’s new film Rush (2013) reminded me of how I so do not live for the adrenaline rush.

In fact, just watching Daniel Brühl and Chris Hemsworth play Niki Lauda and James Hunt preparing for their Formula 1 races and revving up themselves and their cars, made my own psychological foot weigh heavy on my imaginary brakes.

I could feel my line, and I was uncomfortable with their crossing it. I didn’t feel sick, like Hunt did pre-race, I just felt a great big ‘no’ inside me, holding me back from self-destruction.

But with great admiration, I watched how these two superstar sportsmen inspired each other to achieve the very best they could, and in exchange, in time, receive each other’s ultimate respect.

Rush will take you on a very real and human trip and will put you in the “no limits” driving seat, with daring beyond fear, and a focus to be truly admired.

And it might even give you a clearer awareness of your own desire for “the Rush”, how you feel about risk-taking – and perhaps also where you draw your line.

About Shoshannah

Hi, my name is Shoshannah Phoenix. I work with individuals, couples, and families, especially where things feel complicated, tangled, or hard to make sense of.

My work uniquely blends talking therapy, my own mindscaping, functional medicine, cutting edge genetic testing, and natural holistic solutions to whatever ails you. I help people understand how their nervous system, body, thoughts, emotions, and relationships are connected - and how these patterns shape health, behaviour, and connection over time.

Many of the people I work with have complex or long-standing challenges. They may be living with anxiety, emotional overwhelm, OCD, trauma, chronic stress, complex health issues, neurodivergence, relationship difficulties, or patterns that seem to repeat across generations. Rather than looking at one piece in isolation, I work with the whole picture.

This is gentle, collaborative work. We move at a pace that feels safe and manageable, working with your system rather than pushing it. Whether we are working one-to-one or with couples and families, my role is to help you understand yourself more clearly, feel more regulated and supported, and find a way forward that truly fits you.

I am right here… how can I help you?
