🌿 New Resource: Holiday Grief Survival System

The holidays can be tender, especially when you are carrying grief. And this year, I’m navigating my own season of loss after losing my father. I share this only to acknowledge the very real weight that grief carries, especially during the holidays.

Grief shows up in the quiet moments, the loud ones, and the ones you did not expect. It changes how the season feels, how your body responds, and how much capacity you have to push through.

Sitting with my clients, walking through my own loss, and witnessing how deeply the holidays can cut, all of that led me to create something gentle and truly supportive for this time of year.

The Holiday Grief Survival System is a 30 page workbook created by me that’s designed to help you:

• Understand your personal grief style
• Prepare for emotional triggers
• Navigate gatherings and conversations
• Set boundaries without guilt
• Create grounding routines on hard days
• Find ways to honor the person you miss
• Move through the season with compassion and intention

This is not a workbook about fixing grief.
It is a companion for the days when you need support, guidance, and space to breathe.

To make this more accessible for anyone who needs it, I am offering a 25% off launch sale for a limited time đź’•!

If this season feels heavier for you or someone you care about, this resource is available as an instant download:

Here’s what I’ve been noticing in so many people’s lives (and maybe you can relate):
• On the outside, you look strong and dependable.
• On the inside, you’re replaying regrets, stuck in self-doubt, and quietly unforgiving toward yourself.

This survival mode feels like safety, but it’s really superficial survival. You’re functioning, but you’re not free.

And most women I work with don’t even know what self-compassion is. Some think it’s “soft” or indulgent. But the truth is:
👉🏾 Self-compassion is one of the most powerful tools we have to heal shame, regret, and relentless self-criticism.

It’s not about excuses, it’s about:
✨ Learning to respond to yourself with the same care you give others.
✨ Releasing unforgiveness toward yourself.
✨ Building boundaries that actually protect your peace.
✨ Creating emotional safety from the inside out.

That’s why I’m creating something new: The 30-Day Self-Compassion Reset.
đź“– A guided challenge designed to help you break old patterns and finally feel safe in your own skin.

The workbook is almost here, and I can’t wait to share it with you. 🙌🏾

If you’re someone who constantly finds yourself saying yes when you mean no, or feeling responsible for everyone else’s emotions, this message is for you!

“People pleasing” often develops as a protective strategy, but over time it can leave us feeling depleted, resentful, and disconnected from our authentic selves.
The truth is: You were never designed to meet everyone’s needs and expectations. That’s an impossible standard that creates:
• Chronic exhaustion and burnout
• Difficulty identifying your own needs and desires
• Relationships built on performance rather than genuine connection
• A deep fear of conflict or disappointing others

In therapy, we explore how to:
✨ Recognize your worth beyond what you do for others
✨ Set compassionate boundaries that honor both yourself and your relationships
✨ Navigate the discomfort that comes with saying no
✨ Build authentic connections where you can show up as yourself

Recovery from people pleasing is possible. It’s a journey that requires patience, self compassion, and often professional support to unlearn deeply ingrained patterns.

If this resonates with you, you’re not alone. Many of my clients struggle with these same patterns, and there’s hope for creating healthier ways of relating to others and yourself.

: Today, take one small step toward honoring your own needs. đź’•

✨💭If your “GRATITUDE LIST” feels stale, read this!💭✨

You’ve heard it a thousand times:
“Start your day with gratitude.”
But let’s be honest—how often is it just something you check off?
No depth. No connection. Just… noise.

✨ Listing things is easy.
But do you actually know why you’re grateful for them?

“I’m grateful for my family” hits differently than
“Today, hearing my sister’s laugh reminded me I’m not alone.”

One is routine.
The other? A reminder of what your soul actually needs.

🪞 So here’s your real challenge:
Don’t just list it—pause long enough to feel it.
Ask yourself:
👉🏾 “Why does this matter to me today?”

📲 Gratitude becomes healing when it’s honest.

Let’s go deeper.

Let’s start with some truth that may feel heavy—but necessary.

This post might stir up hard emotions, especially if you’ve spent years hoping someone would show up for you in ways they never could.

👉 The Chick-fil-A/McDonald’s example isn’t about fast food.
It’s about emotional expectations—and what happens when we keep asking people to meet needs they were never equipped to handle.

In therapy, we often see how this pattern—especially when tied to childhood wounds—can quietly stall healing.
It keeps you stuck in loops of disappointment.
It clouds your present with pain from the past.
And it makes peace feel out of reach.

💭 You don’t have to stop caring.
But healing starts when you stop expecting someone to become who they’ve never been—and start choosing your peace instead.

There’s grief in that, yes.
But also freedom.

At Harvesting Hope Counseling, I will help you untangle emotional loops and move forward with clarity and compassion.

🧳 “Let’s unpack that…”
If you’ve ever been in therapy, you’ve probably heard this phrase — but what does it really mean?

It’s not just a catchphrase. It’s an invitation to slow down, explore what’s beneath the surface, and gently sort through the thoughts, emotions, and experiences you’ve been carrying.

Unpacking helps you make sense of what feels heavy — so you can heal, grow, and carry what truly serves you.

We were created to care—but not to carry the weight of the whole world. That burden is too heavy for our hearts and nervous systems.

Stay informed, yes. But don’t forget to protect your peace. Breathe. Rest. Reset. You matter, too.
