Feeling like your confidence is a rollercoaster? 🎢 Let's talk about the beach metaphor from my latest blog! Burgandy here from Be True Counseling and I'll explain self-worth as your unchanging shoreline and self-esteem as the fluctuating tide.

The good news? You can actively protect and nurture your core self-worth! My latest blog offers practical measures like self-compassion, healthy boundaries, and positive affirmations to help you build resilience and embrace your inherent value. Find your steady ground, no matter how the tide turns.

Happy Tuesday, everyone. We wanted to share our reflections on the 4th of July with you again. Our previous post seems to have been removed, but the message about the complex journey of freedom and justice remains incredibly important.

Last week, as we marked Independence Day, we reflected on the profound words of Frederick Douglass and the challenging pursuit of true liberty for all. This day, while a celebration for many, also invites us to acknowledge the historical complexities and the ongoing work toward equality.

You can now find the video we shared on our YouTube channel! Click here, https://youtu.be/wJwxmYDDykA.

We believe in holding space for all emotions and reflections, and our aim is always to encourage thoughtful engagement. Thank you for your understanding as we re-share this important perspective.

Happy Pride Month, everyone! 🌈 Burgandy from Be True Counseling here, checking in.

How are you celebrating and affirming your authentic self this month? We hope you're embracing the joy, resilience, and radical self-acceptance that Pride embodies.

And speaking of Pride, if you haven't yet, be sure to check out our "Pride in the Streets: A Q***r Journey to Joy" blog post (https://bit.ly/440HK0R), where we dive into how we can appreciate Pride beyond parades and rainbows – as a defiant celebration of identity and a call to find joy in your authentic self. It's a great read to deepen your understanding and celebration this month!

Happy Juneteenth, everyone! 🎉

Today, June 19th, is a day of profound significance. We commemorate the announcement of emancipation to enslaved people in Galveston, Texas, over two years after the Emancipation Proclamation. For too long, the powerful narrative of this day was often muted or misunderstood.

Juneteenth is a celebration of breathtaking resilience, the enduring human spirit in the face of unimaginable adversity. It’s also a critical reminder that freedom isn't just a decree, but an ongoing, active pursuit. It invites us to acknowledge the weighty truth of delayed justice and the profound joy that can coexist with deep historical wounds.

Let's honor the journey, celebrate the strength, and commit to the continued pursuit of true freedom and equity for all.

Today is World Infertility Day, and my heart goes out to all individuals and couples navigating the complex and often incredibly emotional journey of infertility. This path can bring profound feelings of grief, isolation, stress, and longing.

At Be True Counseling, we understand that this is a deeply personal and often silent struggle. Know that your feelings are valid, and you are not alone. We're here to offer compassionate support and a safe space to process these emotions. Click here, https://bit.ly/3Eil0zo.

Happy Father's Day! ❤️ For some, this day brings joy, but for others, it can feel like "The Ghost in the Greeting Card Aisle" – a reminder of an "Orphaned Narrative" where father-child relationships were marked by distance or pain.

But your worth was never defined by what you didn't receive. You've cultivated incredible strength and resilience. This Father's Day, I invite you to reclaim the day for yourself. Honor the parts of you that showed up when others didn't, and celebrate the amazing person you've become.

Happy Loving Day! ❤️ Today, June 12th, we commemorate the 1967 Supreme Court decision that struck down laws banning in*******al marriage. But it's so much more than just a historical fact. It's a profound testament to love's power to dismantle oppressive structures and an ongoing invitation to examine where we still draw lines of division, both personally and collectively.

Let's celebrate courage and boundary-breaking love!

Hello June! 👋 As we step into this vibrant month, I, Burgandy Holiday from Be True Counseling, invite you to explore a powerful tool for cultivating sustainable joy: the art of reframing. This isn't about slapping on a "positive paint" to difficult realities; it's about fundamentally altering the lens through which we view events and beliefs, dissecting the raw data from our emotional narratives.

June offers unique opportunities to practice this, from reflecting on the boundary-breaking love of Loving Day to understanding the profound resilience woven into Juneteenth's story of liberation. We'll also touch on Father's Day, Summer Solstice, and Pride Month, inviting you to see them anew.

This skill empowers us to shift from feeling like passive recipients of life's challenges to active architects of our inner experience. Ready to practice seeing things differently and cultivate a more resilient, joyful life? Dive into the full blog post!

We continue our deep dive into attachment styles with Dismissive-Avoidant and Fearful-Avoidant patterns. These can create significant challenges in relationships, often rooted in early experiences where comfort-seeking was met with insensitivity or unpredictability.

My message today: approach this with compassionate curiosity. Understanding these patterns, especially fearful-avoidant, benefits significantly from therapeutic support to heal underlying wounds and build pathways toward security. Learn more in my new blog, https://bit.ly/45dQ7qX.
