What if the key to unlocking your true self was hidden in the very thing you fear most?
Rejection. That gut-wrenching feeling no people-pleaser wants to face. It's the monster under the bed, the shadow in the corner. But what if I told you...it doesn't have to be?

Resentment is not a wrong or bad emotion. It doesn't necessarily mean forgiveness has been withheld -- that's bitterness.
Resentment about a situation or in a relationship points to your boundaries being violated -- NOT ok.

There is no shame or guilt over feeling jealous. Jealousy doesn't make you a bad person.
You feel jealous of a person/situation b/c it points to something you want & don't have. Having wants isn't morally wrong.

Anxiety and insomnia often go hand in hand.
They point to each other.
Insomnia points us to a need to realign ourselves with our values because our core beliefs are conflicted. Anxiety points us to needs that are not being met and/or are being ignored.

Feeling sad is uncomfortable & we try to avoid it at all cost.
But when we violate our own softness by trying to NOT be sad, we literally ignore opportunity to understand & recognize what we truly love & care for.
Sadness is a pointer to our why in disappointing circumstances.

What depression is really saying is NOT that you don't care about yourself. Depression at its core is hidden anger -- sometimes so deeply hidden, we aren't even aware of the offense attached to it.
Once we uncover anger, we can then use the anger as a pointer to where we have need for change.

When we boldly come forth as an untamed, midlife woman, who used to live for others' approval, we learn we are capable of being both soft & powerful.

From childhood, girls are often praised for being "good" and "obedient," creating a deep-seated need for external validation & growing into approval-seeking machines.
