23.01.2022 My heart is heavy as I read yet another post by a beautiful young teenager struggling to live with Tourette Syndrome... She writes, "I can't make it stop. I can't make it go away. I wish I was dead." Listen, having lived with Tourette Syndrome myself for 40yrs I know these thoughts and feelings all too well but you are not alone...... I HEAR YOU AND I AM HERE FOR YOU! Your life matters. You are important. You are needed. You are loved. This is why I show up on this Facebook page, offer life coaching, run online courses and support groups, to support YOU, your kids, tweens, teens, partners, teachers, doctors. Please reach out if you need extra support. We are all in this TOGETHER <3 #TICTALK #TouretteSyndrome #Tourettes #TicTalk #Tics #Anxiety #Depression #TS #loveheartoftheday #LeahOrourke
23.01.2022 I want to remind all the well-meaning Christians that Tourette Syndrome is NOT a demon!I want to remind all the well-meaning Christians that Tourette Syndrome is NOT a demon!
22.01.2022 This is what I would have liked to have said to the world when I was only 7yrs old.... "STOP SAYING STOP! I can't help it. Do you think I like tics?! Do you think I enjoy being laughed at? Mocked and mimicked by my 'friends' ? I know my tics annoy you, but for me they can be PAINFUL, relentless, humiliating and exhausting! Be kind!... Can you stop blinking?! No?! So just be a nice person and stop saying stop!" Stress, uncertainty and change (aka 2020!!!) can all be triggers for anxiety and depression and for people living with Tourette Syndrome, also increased involuntary vocal and motor tics. I understand and I am praying for you! #TicTalk #LeahOrourke #TouretteSyndrome #Tourettes #Tic #Tics #iTIC #BeKind #LOVE

19.01.2022 Such an incredible time to be alive! #TicTalk The importance of family and connectivity has taken first place far and above possessions, applause, career, money and fame! For those living with Tourette Syndrome, have you felt more supported or isolated during Covid-19?
19.01.2022 I love how Mother's Day in Australia falls during Tourette Syndrome Awareness Week in May! A big shout out to MY MUM for being my rock, a constant support and advocate for me going through school & Uni with Tourette Syndrome. We didn't have the resources or understanding like we do nowadays but she did the best she could with the knowledge she had and LOVED me unconditionally. Mum was 'anti-bullying' before it was even a thing! She was and still is my safe place when I need ...a shoulder to cry on. THANKS MUM! #BeKind #TicTalk #TouretteSyndrome #TSAA #LeahOrourke #HappyMothersDay #lovelife

15.01.2022 I love my tics! Why fit in when you when born to stand out?!!! #LoveLife #TicTalk #LeahOrourke
14.01.2022 I have learnt that when I think about what I'm thinking about and remove toxic thoughts I tic less. Getting to the core of the trigger, anxiety or depression is key. It also helps to talk things through with someone you trust and listens. If you need someone to talk, as a mum, teacher and life coach with over 40yrs experience living with Tourettes I offer coaching sessions for a fee. PM me or comment below to book a zoom. #LeahOrourke #TicTalk #TouretteSyndrome #tics #Tourettes #Tic #Headspace #Hope
14.01.2022 What other people think really doesn't matter! . As a young girl, born with an incurable neurological condition called Tourette Syndrome which involves involuntary vocal sounds and movements called 'tics', I was daily humiliated, teased, bullied, mocked, laughed at and talked about behind my back. I believe, and learnt the painful way, that what other people think of you REALLY DOES NOT MATTER!!! (As my mum would say, who are 'they' anyway???) . What matters is what YOU thin...k of YOU! . I believe I am wonderfully and fearfully made with a destiny, calling and purpose on my life! AND to the person reading this - SO ARE YOU! . If you need a coach to help you break free from the opinions of others please book a Discovery Call by visiting www.lovelifecoaching.com.au where you can subscribe to my email list and download resources to help you get clear on your personal vision, mission and purpose! . #Nofear #Loveishere #LOVELifecoaching #Vision #Mission #Purpose #lifecoach #Faith #leahorourke #TicTalk #LoveLife #LOVE See more

04.01.2022 If there was one thing you would change about today what would it be?
03.01.2022 Today is Day #1 of Tourette Syndrome Awareness Week in Australia, 4-10 May 2020. I was contacted for an interview and I am hoping I can use my mouth and story this week to share the truth about Tourette Syndrome, be a voice for those who can't speak up for themselves, like children, and empower peeps to own their Tourette's superpowers! Why be ordinary when you can be extraordinary?! ... Why fit in when you were born to stand out?! Why be quiet when you were created to make noise?! Why sit still when you were made to RUN???!!!!! Welcome to the 'new normal' ....cos 'normal' is so last year!

02.01.2022 Dear parents who suspect their child has Tourette Syndrome... After 40yrs living with Tourettes here is what I have learnt; A Doctor can't do anything. A neurologist can't do anything. A psychologist can't do anything.... A diagnosis will not change anything. But you, as a parent, can do something! LOVE your child, get educated about Tourette Syndrome and be a strong advocate for them. #isaidwhatisaid #Tourettes #LeahOrourke #TouretteSyndrome #TicTalk #Tics #iTIC
01.01.2022 VIP LOVE WHO YOU ARE! I spent years of my life not loving me because I was born with Tourette Syndrome and hated it! It wasted my time, stole my joy and confidence, made me withdraw - but not anymore!!! When I decided to love myself for who I was I soon discovered one of my hidden super powers was helping others uncover their pain points, overcoming them and making their pain pay!... I share my story to help other people living with Tourette Syndrome to LOVE WHO THEY ARE! #TICTALK #lovelifecoaching #LeahOrourke #LoveGod #LoveYou #LoveOthers #Lovelife
