Episode description
That thing that once helped you get through might now be quietly holding you back.
In this episode, we talk about what it feels like to outgrow old coping strategies and how to let them go with compassion instead of shame.
Sometimes growth means thanking the armor that kept you safe, then gently setting it down as we Calm it Down in 3…2…1.
