Brooks writes that we need people — friends, partners, therapists — who can help us see our situation accurately. I’d add: we need people who can see us kindly while we do that.

That’s the heart of healing work. It’s not about fixing what’s wrong; it’s about being seen in the places that learned to hide. When someone can look at you and hold both your strength and your pain with compassion, something inside you begins to reorganize.

That’s how we grow new models — ones that say, I am safe now. I can trust again. Love can be steady.

Storr says we build our identity around this sacred flaw, creating a story where we are the hero. This story helps us make sense of what happened to us — and more importantly, how to keep ourselves safe from it happening again.

The catch? As Brooks puts it, “You can’t see the models you use to perceive the world because you’re seeing with them.”

I see this all the time in my therapy practice. Someone might say:

“I can’t depend on anyone.”
“I always end up with people who don’t show up for me.”
“I’m fine on my own — I don’t really need anyone.”

These statements are not flaws or failures. They’re clues. They reveal the model — the sacred flaw — that was built to protect a tender, hurting part of us. And those models are often brilliant. They helped us survive. But over time, they also keep us from feeling the deeper connection and safety we long for.

Lately, I’ve been reading David Brooks’ How to Know a Person, and it’s one of those books that makes you stop and look at people — and yourself — a little differently.

Brooks writes that every child, even from birth, is asking four essential questions:
Am I safe? How does love work? Am I worthy? Will I be cared for?

If those questions are met with warmth, consistency, and love, we grow into adults who move through the world with a sense of safety and trust. But if those questions are met with neglect, chaos, or disconnection, our nervous system learns to brace. We build what the British writer Will Storr calls a “sacred flaw” — an inner model that helps us survive.

Day 4, 5 and 6. I’m headed home tonight. It’s a beautiful place!🌺

Day 3 at the writing yoga retreat. We did a breath work class. Wow! So powerful. Lots of nature and amazing women I’m surrounded by and inspired.

Day two at my writing and yoga retreat in Hawaii. The resort is self sustaining. They generate all the electricity from solar and grow most of the food we eat. The mango tree is 100 years old. Check out the size of the avocados. I’m working on finishing up the first draft of my memoir. It’s been a peaceful place to write. 🌺

Self-control is about suppression. Self-regulation is about staying present with your emotions without falling apart. When we can navigate our own internal storms, we can stay connected during moments of tension with others. Conflict isn’t the doorway—it’s what comes after: repair, understanding, and growth.

10/15/2025

Most of us avoid conflict, thinking it’s a sign that something’s gone wrong. But conflict itself isn’t the enemy—disconnection without repair is. Every misunderstanding or misstep is actually an invitation to connect more deeply. True intimacy grows not from constant harmony, but from repair.

10/14/2025

The Power of Discord by Drs. Ed Tronick and Claudia Gold can reshape how you see conflict in relationships.

The book shows that disconnection—not conflict itself—is what harms relationships. True intimacy grows through repair: coming back together after misunderstandings, staying present with tough emotions, and learning that love and safety can coexist with imperfection.

Conflict isn’t the enemy—it’s the doorway to connection.
