Many of us were taught that strength means pushing through, overriding ourselves, and staying productive no matter what. But that’s a very rigid way of living. And when flexibility is lacking, things eventually snap.

Real strength comes from checking in with yourself and making decisions based on your internal state and values…not just fixed ways of being (very hard for perfectionists).

Emotional agility is what makes resilience sustainable.

I haven’t been online as much because I’ve been outside! Plant sales, gardening, eating my lunch on the porch swing, walking, listening to the birds, keeping the squirrels out of my flower pots. Loving this season at my little cottage office already ˖𓍢ִ໋🌷͙֒✧💌˚.⋆🌿

People assume that in therapy the therapist is the one doing all the teaching. But what about all the things our clients teach us? Even when it’s something we may already “know”, there’s something different about watching it unfold in real time in someone’s actual life (it lands so much deeper). We don’t just witness growth, we learn from it, too.

I used to rush through my mornings and pull into work on two wheels.

I used to schedule my days (even my weekends) back to back to back, no gaps to be found.

I used to tell myself I’d enjoy things later and that slowing down wasn’t an option. Somehow later never came.

The common denominator in all of it was me. I let my schedule control me and convinced myself that’s just how life had to be…that I was just “so busy”.

But that wasn’t exactly true. It was a story I was telling myself, then I allowed my actions and decisions to fulfill it.

Maybe it’s my age now, or the years I’ve spent recovering from perfectionism…but I don’t want to be the “busy one” anymore. I don’t want to feel overwhelmed by my own life. And I don’t want to feel like time is slipping away while I’m trying to keep up with it.

I don’t get bored anymore when my schedule isn’t packed. Now I enjoy my flowers, my swing, my pets…watching bugs and squirrels, fluffing pillows.

Slowing down didn’t take anything from me.
It gave me my life back. 🐿️

The best compliment I can receive is when someone walks up to my therapy office and says, “I knew I was in the right place because it looks just like you.” It warms my heart! Small, unassuming, a little whimsical, and comfy…yet it’s weathered some storms and still stands.

For a lot of therapists, especially early on, rupture can feel uncomfortable. It’s easy to make it mean something about you, like you got something wrong.

But rupture and repair are part of this work, a very important part.

What unfolds between you and your client often reflects what’s happening in their world outside the room. And when you can notice it, name it, and stay with it in real time…that’s where things start to shift for them. *If it’s hard to receive that kind of feedback, it’s worth bringing into your supervision or consultation.
