Noticing what you do doesn’t have to mean blaming yourself for it. We can begin to understand our behaviour and still be kind to ourselves in the process 🤍

Just nourishment, not judgment.
10/10 evening honestly.
And as your resident therapist that is always talking about compassion, yes these are exciting plans 🩷🩷

We move through the same emotional loops until consciousness interrupts them. The brain is wired for what it knows, even when it hurts. Healing begins when we become aware 💙

The wound wasn’t about needing love, it was the belief that love had to be earned.
And that belief lives in the nervous system like a familiar pattern:
tightening, bracing, trying harder, performing for connection.

In moments of activation, the body might still respond as if safety comes from being “good enough.” But when we stay present with those sensations, instead of abandoning ourselves, something shifts.

The system learns that love can come without the earning it and it learns that connection is possible without performing. Healing isn’t forcing a new story, it’s helping the body integrate the truth: that you never had to earn love in the first place.

Our faces shift constantly, with light, with angles, with emotion, with the way we move through our day.

Online, we’re often seeing carefully posed photos taken in the best lighting and after multiple tries.
But we can end up being so hard on the face we see in the mirror or in a quick photo, forgetting that it’s supposed to change. It’s supposed to respond. It’s supposed to be alive.
So think of this as a small palette cleanser, a teeny reminder that faces move, react, soften, brighten, and that this is entirely okay.

I hope today brings you something that helps you feel alive and grounded. Maybe that’s a hug, a breath of fresh air, a snuggle with a pet, a warm cup of tea, or a really good snack. Whatever it is, I hope it offers a moment of joy 🩷

💙 Maybe you have been told that you were "too much". But maybe, you were just honest in a space that preferred you quiet.

When you began to speak about what you felt and needed, it did not mean you were wrong or excessive.

It might mean you finally showed up as yourself.

Ever been in a spot where you are going huh, what's next? You can't see me but my hand is raised.

Personally, I have felt this the last two months. I was wondering about a new haircut, getting further training in a new model, learning to run again after healing from a knee injury, seeing if I could start cooking more, knit bookmarks, take up going to pottery. The list was really long! It was interesting because there were so many ideas of where to go, and none of them felt clear. And they were all over the place! Personal to professional, like just scattered.

I realized it probably wasn't so much that the outside NEEDED a change, but something inside me was asking for attention so that I can be in a spot of readiness for change. So slowing down was the first thing. It was HUMBLING to say the least. There was a lot that I hadn't looked at in my own mind. That meant restarting my own therapy journey (yes - therapists go to therapy 🤍) and being willing to welcome the murkiness in.

Here I am sharing a bit of that journey. I am still not sure on any final destinations for anything. But I have invited more reading books into my life instead of scrolling, more openness instead of hiding that some things in my mind were bouncing, and trusting that I am listening to myself to let things unfold.

Trauma doesn't have a one size fits all look. For some people, trauma can show up as perfectionism.

It might be a well-learned strategy that has helped them stay safe, or get approval from others, or feel like they have control in a space that feels uncontrollable.

However, it can be exhausting feeling like you have to prove yourself, constantly worry, and feel like you have to get it right.

Living with anxiety can be painful.
It can range from a variety of experiences and symptoms, but a few common ones are:
1) That feeling that something bad is gong to happen. It's the "what if's" and the worst case scenarios, playing out in your mind. on repeat.
2) Feeling tired no matter how much you try to rest. Anxiety takes energy!
3) Overthinking and that feeling of being in your head all the time. It's the lying awake at night, worrying about today and the next 30 years.

Anxiety can take a lot from us. Our brain thinks it is trying to protect us from threats, but it cannot gauge and respond differently whether if the threat is a lion trying to eat us or own internal landscape. It just knows that something is causing alarm bells for us.

The good news? There are helpful strategies to reduce anxiety and safe spaces to talk about what these experiences have felt like ❤️
