Hair loss is often visible, but many of it’s impacts are not. This is my new psychoeducational series: Invisible impacts of hair loss!

Bite sized educational resources that can help those in your life better understand your experience. Today’s post is about Window of Tolerance✨

As always, leave any questions you have below⬇️

While there is no magic bullet answer, this is one that can certainly open the door to a more self-compassionate narrative❤️

The research about self-compassion is VERY clear in regard to the impact on one’s overall well-being. While it may sound like a trivial or silly adjustment to make, I promise you, when the internal voice you listen to ALL day shifts from constant criticism ➡️ compassion…. I have no doubt you will notice a shift in your mental health.

And if you’re feeling stuck or unsure how to get there, that’s always where I can help! Never hesitate to schedule a free consultation call in my bio❤️

“I felt like I had no identity other than being the weird bald girl. Every time I looked in the mirror, I was disappointed with what I saw.”

Your worth is not dependent on your job, pay, looks, or anything. You are just as worthy as the next person💕
