I know that's not something many people say out loud.. Today, during a Session, my client shared that she's struggled with anxiety, depression, and self-doubt for most of her life. As we explored her story, we uncovered something deeper—a rejection wound that started in childhood. Growing up, her mother was impatient. If she didn't do something "right," she was met with criticism or anger instead of patience and emotional safety. As a little girl, she learned: "I'm not good enough. "I have to be perfect to be loved. "If I make a mistake, I'll be rejected." Those beliefs didn't stay in childhood. They followed her into adulthood. She got married young to escape. She tolerated toxic and abusive relationships. She constantly questioned herself. She abandoned herself to keep the peace. Here's what I told her: It's okay to be angry. Not because we stay stuck blaming our parents...But because healing requires telling the truth about what happened. You can't heal what you're still pretending didn't hurt. Your mother may never fully understand the impact she had on your life. She may never take accountability. That doesn't stop you from taking responsibility for your healing. The moment you stop denying your pain is the moment you begin taking your power back. Sometimes that looks like: ✨ Setting boundaries. ✨ Saying no without guilt. ✨ Refusing to be gaslit. ✨ Choosing yourself, even when it disappoints someone else. By the end of our session, she wasn't carrying shame anymore. She felt lighter. More empowered. More connected to herself. That's what healing looks like. If you're ready to stop carrying wounds that were never yours to create and finally take your power back... Comment READY, and let's see if a Power Session is the next step for you.
