Feeling like you’re too much and not enough at the same time? Sometimes we experience things in life that cause us to harden; we end up having to create armor to walk through the world more safely. There's so much wisdom in that armor, in the ways we learn to protect ourselves. But sometimes that armor does not serve us; it gets in the way of truly living, and experiencing care and support from those we want to let in. Maybe you’re struggling with how past painful experiences are impacting your current relationships, possibly while struggling to even know who you are. We can’t change the past, but we can find a healing path forward.

You have been sitting with your thoughts and seem to recycle your memories. You are excellent at suppressing your hurt and stay busy with work and life as a distraction. You no longer connect with others the way you used to and keep friends and family at a distance. The Pandemic may have increased your anxiety and depression and you are uncertain where to begin. Your worry and fear come out as; anger, sadness and controlling behaviors, due to questioning your worth and self esteem. Will I ever feel truly happy? Will I feel truly loved? Will I find my life path and the career that makes my soul soar? Will I learn to forgive?
