When we don’t feel safe to be seen in our full humanity (our needs, our imperfections, our longing, our mistakes) we protect ourselves by judging others for theirs.

We critique, gossip, judge to subconsciously create distance from our own vulnerability. Yes, I know, sometimes it feels like a means to connection, but it’s a surface level one.

The more we can accept all of who we are, the less we lead with being “better than”. Because the truth is the more gently we hold our own humanity, the more room we have for the humanity in others.

It’s beautiful to want to be deeply seen as that longing lives in all of us. But that need is also an invitation to practice deeply witnessing ourselves.

Notice your own effort. Your tenderness. The ways you keep showing up. See your growth. Witness your strength. Wholeheartedly honor your experience.

And from there, extend that same energy outward. See someone you love & time to truly see and express appreciation for them.

When we remember to become the one who sees,
we no longer chase feeling seen because we embody belonging.

Intimacy isn’t built through constant agreement, it’s built through emotional honesty. We often mistake peace for connection, but peace without truth is suppression dressed up as harmony.

The highest form of intimacy is our truth, the kind when we are willing to be seen and known, even when it’s uncomfortable. It’s saying, “This is what’s real for me,” without managing how it lands.

It’s showing the parts we’re afraid might be “too much” or “not enough,” and letting love meet us there. Truth allows us to trust that we can be ourselves and still belong. It’s the foundation for the connection we all deeply crave.

Getting your needs met and outsourcing them can look similar, but one is rooted in self abandonment while the other is rooted in self connection.

🩷 Getting your needs met (rooted in self connection)
→ Self-awareness
→ Self-validation
→ Communication
→ Boundaries
→ Self Worth

💔 Outsourcing your needs
→ Over-focus on what others are doing or not doing
→ Seeking worth through their responses only
→ Self-abandoning when they can’t meet your needs
→ Hyper-fixating on them to avoid your own discomfort

The difference is ownership.
One creates belonging.
The other repeats abandonment.
One is dependent.
The other is rooted in self connection.

The biggest question is, when someone cannot meet you, can you still hold on to yourself?

How someone ends things often mirrors how they showed up relationally. Avoiding discomfort, deflecting accountability, disappearing when things got real, are all a skill set that gets highlighted in the ending.

On the flip side, we think we’re chasing closure,
but often we’re continuing the same pattern that kept us stuck. The hyper focus on them versus being able to be with ourselves.

Closure requires presence, and if they couldn’t show up at the end, the presence it requires is from you. Presence around the truth, around the patterns that are being highlighted, around the clarity that forces you to stop abandoning yourself in the name of hope.

Now the relationship can do what all are meant to do - help us grow. Help us see. Help us reconnect more firmly within, and show up more fully with ourselves and others. Now the ending becomes your new beginning.

Resilience isn’t about staying positive, it’s about learning to trust yourself to hold what hurts with gentleness, rather than control.

When your sense of safety depends on things going right, life will always feel fragile. But when your sense of safety lives inside you, everything shifts.

You begin to realize that resilience isn’t found in the absence of pain, but in the presence of self-trust.
It’s knowing: I can feel this. I can move through this. I don’t have to abandon myself to survive it.

That’s what makes you steady, not unbreakable, but rooted.Not untouched by life, but deeply connected to yourself through it. That’s resilience. That’s self-trust. That’s healing.
