On this page, I will be sharing some information, tools, and tidbits from my psychotherapy work with the hopes of enhancing your wellness goals! I know what it feels like to be different and look different and my hope is that this page builds a community for all, especially for those who feel out of place.

Jusst wrapped hot yoga, and while trying to calm my body, my nerves .. I kept thinking about this concept that came up when working with clients these last two weeks.

How ..problematic adults, require community who consented or .. were passive in not standing up for us, when harm found us as children. 🫣.. many of you weren’t ready for that eh..

I think about this so much. How these dynamics .. parents who harmed their children, couldn’t do it on their own, and had people around them .. allowing it, not checking them or worse sometimes getting in on the harm. Anyways I can go on FOR DAAAAAYS!

But leaving it here to say, goodnight, and … let me know what you think about this post 👀 ..

Five things PLUS a bonus of what I would tell you, if you were my client and at best I only had one minute with you.

Over the years, I have sat with so many people and have been fortunate to walk with them in their stories, and empower them to hold their stories in a way they take ownership over their lives.

And the six things I always keep coming back to, as to remind them ( and hey, a reminder always to myself first ).

Let me know if any resonated or even better share with me the ones YOU love that you’ve learned along the way!

…. 🫣 I know, I know .. this one’s not easy to go through.

It’s to admit to yourself even quietly, yeah .. 100%, what I went through by my siblings didn’t feel good, and wasn’t okay.

Whether an older sibling, a younger sibling, none of it was okay.

This is some of the therapy work we do with clients, where .. in THIS SPACE, you can admit and say..’that was not okay, that should not have happened, forgiveness is not owed to anyone’

What are your thoughts to this post? Let me know 👇🏽!

This topic, believe it or not .. shows up in therapy SO MUCH with clients.

Where they come to this place in their healing journey to say out loud with me ..’if was never my fault.. they just needed someone to blame’

This is one of those ‘aha’ moments in therapy. Love them so much.

Anyways? If you liked this post, subscribe to my email, I share soooo much more reflections there!

⚡️TEXT MESSAGES I SAVED, that I love so much, sent by my favourite people. Community is everything, and I cannot say that nearly enough to you.

This season of my life, where I need more, where I’m not with as much to give as I use to, being held down and loved, ugh, I’m just without words.

It’s a Friday night, snowy here ( the cover is a throw back from travels ) … I’m praying.. May you find community that makes you grateful to be alive.

Also?! I sent out a newsletter of feelings and my understanding of kindness, make sure you catch the next one.. subscribe | link in bio!

Some lessons have to be learned from an aging and a pain, to make impact that you hold on to as a way of protection.

And friendship? In my yeaaaars.. and I mean YEAAAARS, I have learned SOOO much about myself, others and what community for me is, and what I am when I’m in community.

Yeah, anyways, I can go for DAAAYS! But? I’d rather do the ranting on my newsletter, have you eveeeen subscribed?

I’ve been thinking a lot about kindness.

Have I been kind lately?
Am I kind?
Have I shown kindness?
Am I showing myself kindness?
Have I been kind to others?

In this season of my life what does kindness look like?

Ugh, just this, all of this, in my head, in my mind. I’ve just been reflecting, and realizing.. hey? Sometimes, as hard as life gets, as hard as life is .. be kind, it’s sometimes all you have control over and you never know how far that kindness can go, and how healing it can be for you and the other person.

Ok! Back to sessions with clients. !

I share this analogy with a client of mine and I loveeeed it.

It’s the metaphor that best domains … in all your resolution work, INCLUDE INNER WORK TOO.

It’s not just about .. how do I look in my clothes, summer body work starts NOW, it’s ALSO, how do I feel inside and what drains or weighs me DOWN.

Questions we HAVE TO BE asking ourselves.

You know where I first noticed this in my life? In my marriage. Where, hubs would do something, and then I’d feel like .. ok ok, no no, I don’t want to be in debt, I have to do something back, bigger, more so no one could say I owe them.

And then, you realize, whaaaat is happening, who lives like that. Kindness should feel natural, and from a place of generosity not from a place of debt, and feeling like and if I don’t I’ll lose them or they’ll throw this in my face as though I’m not carrying my weight.

Learning, the difference between giving from a place of mercy, and from a place of scarcity, ouuuf the toughest lesson, but a good one nonetheless.

I just finished writing one of the most hardest newsletter I’ve ever had to write. It’s scheduled for Friday, and there’s a part of me so afraid to share that with half a thousand people.

But I just want to be honest. I don’t want to parade in this space like I have it all together all the time, because I don’t and that’s not honest.

Having x amount of followers, or viral posts, or videos that have done past a million and more, doesn’t guarantee you happiness. ♥️, more on this on my newsletter, have you signed up?

It is so hard to STOP equating my worth to how much I get done in a day. Even working as a social worker and therapist, this is such a hard thing for me.

I make a living from reminding community how important it is for them to be self compassionate and aware of how much their body does for them, and to not wait for their body to crash before it gets help from us.

But then here I am struggling, trying to do everything, be everything, ugh. I stopped today, to write this all down and I hope it helps someone centre themselves again. ♥️
