I’m more comfortable receiving a witty comment about my non-existent eyebrows than a nice compliment.

If your partner has childhood trauma, this matters a lot.

When they feel big stress, their brain can go quiet.

They may not know what they need.

They are not trying to be hard.

They just learned to do things alone.

So when you ask lots of questions,
it can feel like more pressure.

Try this instead:
Sit with them.
Speak soft.
Say, “I’m here.”
Say, “That’s really hard.”
Help with small things.
Give space if they need it.
Remind them, “We’re okay.”

Support is not just what you do.
It’s how it feels to them.
Learn their way.
Love gets easier.

Save this for later
Share with your partner

My default brain can be a real Bi**ch (no judgment, stating the facts).

Years of trauma conditioning makes these messages pop up very quickly and feel pretty innate.

Blahhhhhjhh!

Give a like if you can relate.

It sucks, it’s uncomfortable, it’s painful, it brings up the past, the thoughts and feelings are horrible AND it’s empowering, magical, and a guide.

When we’ve learned feelings are bad, wrong, or “too much” our body will fight it and go back to its surviving techniques. Shame and fear will come up. The body will seek safety. When the body feels supported, it will feel and release. It will.

A question I ask a lot when working with childhood trauma is, “what are you feeling in the body?”.

I ask this to help individuals reconnect with their bodies. Reconnect with themselves. Reconnect others their guide.

We practicing sit with it. Listening. Understanding, discerning, and taking action.

I will sit with you through the pain in order for the past to be in the past.
