depending on what we've been dealt - we are so used to some things - that they seem to be expectations in our lives at this point. if we're not careful - that can become white noise + we may not even notice it augmenting our sense of reality after a while. learning how to stand up for ourselves - in a way that both honors our values + diffuses the situation - is a difficult practice but one that can afford the luxury of both hearing others + feeling heard.

regularly taking inventory can ensure you're heading in the right direction. I’ve recently been taking inventory on the things that bring be joy + the things that I don’t really feel have a long term function in my life. I like to use resets like this to objectively look at my space + take inventory of what is serving it. What is serving me. What can be put away carefully for a future me and what can be thoughtfully gifted or donated to someone who could be served better by it. TUNE IN ON PATREO...

When we practice self-regulation, we get better at avoiding meeting chaos where it is. By stepping up, we show others the way to step up behind us, if they see that path as a worthy one. L.R. Knost’s said, “When little people are overwhelmed by big emotions, it’s our job to share our calm, not join their chaos.” I don't think this just pertains to littles, I think it pertains to everyone.

TW: there is mention of emotional abuse throughout this episode. “The first sign to look out for is if you feel confused. You will rarely–if ever–be confused by someone who has nothing but pure, good, loving intentions with you. The second is if you feel hesitant or fearful to either address your confusion or speak your feelings openly. If you can’t ask a question or express your needs without it becoming an argument, that’s a red flag. When someone is defensive (turns the tables, shifts blame, ...
