Another brilliant quote from @brenebrown ❤ One day I hope to sit down and thank her for her countless words of wisdom. I'm still a young grasshopper in this arena, but I'm learning. I'm taking notes miss Brene. 📝 . . And one thing I've learned, is that those who you allow to offer their opinion, better be those who are out here in the wild braving their own path too👊 Those unafraid to be truth tellers in a world that fights to silence them. Ones who speak out when it's much easier to be quiet. Those who risk losing everything in order to be true to themselves. Ones who appreciate a room full of awkward truth, rather than a room of comfortable denial. 🙉 . . These are the voices that aren't often welcomed. Who take ass kickings on the daily. But they are also the ones who continue to get up, shake the dust off their feet, smile and keep marching. 💪 . . This wilderness is rugged terrain. But, I'm here. I'm standing. And I'm eternally thankful for those standing with me 💪❤ . . . . #podcasts #blogger #writer #dailyinspiration #lovewins #beyou #risestrong #evenstill #werise #progressivechristianity #relationshipgoals #faithjourney #exevangelical #mystic #traumahealing #traumarecovery #wilderness #abusesurvivor #healthyboundaries #spirituality #spiritualawakening #spiritualjourney #bravingthewilderness #brenebrownquotes Shout out to my favorite travel companion ✈ the @marleyann06 .

These bonds are built through shared trauma experiences, whether through story sharing of the trauma or through shared experiences. The effects of unhealthy trauma bonding often result in anxiety, fear of being unheard or the constant need for validation. 💫 . . However, the benefits of healthy trauma bonding, offer a safe place to heal and naturally receive validation. In this episode, I share what I've learned from a lifetime of unhealthy trauma bonding and how I'm creating a spiritual practice of maintaining a sacred circle around my trauma. 💫 . .

A phenomenon I only became aware of (thank you therapy) within the last few years. Trauma bonding is not only a coping mechanism, but something that, over time, can develop into a habit. One trauma bond, after another and another. 😔 . . Healing from this pattern begins with recognition. Acknowledgment of how it has served your survival and equally granting it permission to rest. To let go. And to move on. ✨ . . Trauma bonding has marked much of my adult life - it was what I needed at those times- but there comes a time when you decide you are ready for different kinds of bonds. Ones built on health rather than survival. Built on shared independence rather than co-dependence. On building rather than destroying. On peace rather than chaos. 🙏 . . When I decided I was done with trauma bonds, it felt like a death. But with every death, comes new life. A new, glorious, peaceful life ❤ . . . . . #podcasts #blogger #writer #spiritualjourney #spirituality #youareenough #authentic #lovewell #loveyourself #misfitsunite #girlmom #lovewell #loveyourself #divinelove #survivor #abusesurvivor #lovewins #beyou #progressivechristianity #lgbtsupporter #lgbtchristian #wilderness #emotionalintelligence #healthyboundaries #traumarecovery #traumahealing #spiritualawakening #exevangelical
