Part of my work (a good 50%) focuses on coping with change, the losses associated with it and endings.
Such a great video on this topic from Hailey Paige Magee

Emotional agility-this seems a better word than resilience, maturity or intelligence. It's something you can work on, practise and improve.

Emotional agility doesn't make you a perfect person overnight. It does provide you with a set of invaluable skills that will change you, your outlook, your relationships, and your life. Take it one step at a time.

There's one thing that has been a constant in my own healing journey: self compassion.
It's something I often talk about with clients.
If we can't learn to be compassionate towards ourselves, then we stay stuck. So many of us spend all day offering compassion to others, whilst berating ourselves constantly in private. Learning to be compassionate with yourself can be the first step, but as Kristen says here, you may need to go slowly ❤️

Great infographic that may explain why you feel the way you do about yourself.
You may have encountered some of these as child due to neglectful or abusive parenting rather than receiving, by definition, what was 'Good enough' parenting. Later you may have been exposed to bullying by siblings, your class mates or team mates and later at uni or work.
If you can identify any of these, counselling can help you to understand what you need.

Many good resources and explanations about this all too common experience; one source https://psychcentral.com/blog/childhood-trauma-overcoming-the-hurt-of-invalidation -is-it

Love this from Dr Joanne Cacciatore

When the world was right...

As Christmas Eve approaches, my heart turns toward all who are carrying the ache of missing someone they deeply deeply love. May you be held in the tenderness of this season, even as your heart has been irrevocably changed. And may the one you miss be remembered out loud, their names spoken, as love continues to find its way back to each of you.

If Christmas is hard,
If you’ve lost someone dear.
Just look in your heart,
And you’ll know they’re still here.

The star in the sky,
The light falling snow.
The robin outside,
It seems like they know.

If this is a time,
When you’re struggling through.
Just do what you can,
For what matters, is you.

There’s no need to be merry,
There’s no need to bright.
Just do what you can,
It will all be alright.
