I’m so happy for you, Ashe. What you said about healing not being linear is sooooo true, but what a wonderful experience it is in those moments when you feel your own authentic self . . . it can help you keep going and working toward more authenticity. Good luck on your journey!

Thank you Tina! I appreciate you taking the time to respond. ☺️ I hope the healing not being linear resonates with a lot of readers because I think some have been led to think that it’s straight forward and give up after a few setbacks. But people with Trauma will probably always have to work at being ok. Which is…ok! 😂

Yes! Exactly! It’s very interesting how young minds are shaped when they form during a time of stress and survival instead of forming in a supportive safe environment. The mind learns to protect itself. And it has to be unlearned. Television and movies frequently miss the mark.
