Well Badger Resource Center has put together a wonderful infographic on infant mental health and "building a strong start for life."

In addition to having this as an informative reference on ways to implement simple, every day healthy habits for adult and baby, The Power of Connection, a WI-AIMH project, is sited as a useful resource.

With current events and continually increasing costs many food banks are depleted and unable to keep up with the growing needs.
To help support our community, Genesis has decided to host a food drive from November 3rd to December 8th in partnership with Second Harvest.

Barrells will be placed outside of our clinic doors for items to be dropped off.

Please see the infographic that provides a list of most needed items.

We hope that those who are able, will contribute to help those in need, especially while foodshare benefits are on hold. Hard times can be made a little easier with compassion and support.

"Healing involves bringing the dark and shame-filled parts of ourselves to light. Owning them and learning to embrace them so that they don’t own you or indirectly drive your behavior."

This is for the people who are suffering in silence.
Who blame themselves for their “negativity,” who have maybe done enough work to know that the issue is theirs, so they just stew on it internally.

You’re allowed to take up space.
And your feelings DO matter, even if the trigger is wholly yours and no one else did anything “wrong.”
You deserve to be seen and to receive witnessing and support.

Healing involves bringing the dark and shame-filled parts of ourselves to light. Owning them and learning to embrace them so that they don’t own you or indirectly drive your behavior.

Yes, discernment matters.
Yes, pausing before reacting is important.
Yes, self-attuning and taking responsibility for what’s yours is imperative.

But so is letting people see you.
Including the less shiny and ‘perfect’ parts.

It’s okay that you have sensitivities, triggers, feelings.
It’s okay if you have messy days where you can’t figure out why this thing is showing up again.

You’re allowed to be human.
To be seen and supported, always, even when you can’t explain it or put it into a nicely wrapped package.

And we can only really be seen when we stop trying to control how everyone sees us, and show more of the whole picture.

It’s a balance, this whole human thing. We all need to get a little messy and uncomfortable in order to tease apart the tightly wound parts, to create space for growth. To create space for the things we can’t predict or control that will change our lives in ways that we can’t yet imagine.

The Relationship Management Workshop begins October 23.
6 weeks, small group, interactive work in a compassionate space filled with likeminded folks who are also doing relational, self-reflective work.
Come practice holding space, and having it held for you.
Don't miss out - this is the last workshop of 2025! There are only 3 spots left.

The most courageous and loving act you can do for yourself and anyone important to you, is to take one small step towards healing the wounds you never deserved to endure.

An important reminder why it is so critical to face and heal your trauma. The more you bury, deny or avoid it, the stronger it gets and more likely to grow into something more insidious.

It will/does influence all facets of life, often times completely out of your awareness. How you interpret, react, feel, think and interact with people. How you show up in any relationships, work and personal life.
What is unhealed, will show up in seemingly unrelated and unpredictable ways. The more it's denied, the more likely it is that it will cause more harm to you, who you care about and those who care about you. It may create problems where they never needed to exist. Ignoring your past will unintentionally cause more suffering in rippling effects.

Give yourself the gift of freedom from your past. Find a therapist skilled in trauma work and bravely face your pain with compassion.

May you rest in peace.

You cannot be authentic and people please at the same time.

People pleasing requires blindness to the choices you make.
It must have compliance, silence, and denial.
When the people pleaser walks into a room they have to leave their truth and authenticity at the door.
They scan, and read, and break their bones to contort into the version they think others need or want them to be.
There is no space for authentic voices and healthy boundaries.

You can't have both. So which one are you going to choose?

Authentic people aren’t chasing approval.

They don’t bend their words or twist their actions to fit the crowd.

They speak the truth, even when it’s unpopular.

They do the right thing, even when it costs them.

And they stick up for others, even if it paints a target on their own back.

Why?

Because authenticity is rooted in integrity, not in image.

It’s about living aligned with your values, not adjusting them for convenience or acceptance.

The world is full of people who want to be liked by everyone, but authentic people understand that being liked means nothing if it comes at the expense of your soul.

Being trusted, being consistent, being someone who stands when others sit down, that matters far more.

Being authentic won’t always win you popularity, but it will earn you something far greater: respect, trust, and the peace of knowing you never compromised who you are.
