W IS FOR WILD WEDNESDAY!
I'm making my way through a marvellous book at the moment...
Woman Who Run With Wolves. 🐺
SO many a ha moments, resonating, aligning and so purposeful of my present, past and future.
One part has particularly stood out...
❌ When you’re with people who don’t understand you, your “wild self” shrinks—you second-guess yourself, perform, or feel disconnected.
✅When you’re with people who do understand you, your true nature expands—you feel seen, safe, and more yourself without effort.
In that sense:
❤️ The right people don’t tame you—they recognise you.
You don’t have to explain your depth, emotions, or instincts—they’re simply accepted.
Being understood is not about agreement, but about feeling emotionally and intuitively “met.”
Reconnecting with your authentic self and finding people who genuinely understand you go hand in hand.
You don’t fully “return to yourself” in isolation—you also need spaces and relationships where that self is welcomed, not judged or minimised.
This is SO relational to my work as a therapist having clients being seen and heard but also reflects the people in my journey who have encouraged me and still do to this day!
I really hope you know who you are, if not it'll make itself known 🐺
