Valentine’s Day got me thinking, if you’d told me 5 years ago that I’d feel this safe, this loved, this open again, I honestly wouldn’t have believed you.
Heartbreak shakes you. It makes you question your judgement, your worth, your ability to trust yourself.
But rebuilding was never about finding someone new. It was about building self trust, learning how to regulate my triggers, to heal my shame, stop people pleasing & open my heart without abandoning myself.
That part took work. Real work.
If I can find this kind of love in my 40s, after heartbreak, after so much self doubt, after rebuilding, then it is possible.
Whether that’s rediscovering love in your current relationship or choosing differently in your next one.
Keep believing. Keep doing the work. Don’t give up on yourself.
What’s possible on the other side of healing what hurt you, is bigger & brighter and more incredible than you may think.
