Anger, especially when rooted in past trauma, can be overwhelming and deeply destructive. However, by understanding its source and taking proactive steps to address it, you can begin to heal and regain control over your emotions. My journey from anger to healing was not easy, but it was necessary for my well-being and for the relationships I valued, and now I’m a totally different person. If you're struggling with similar feelings, know that you're not alone, and there is hope for a brighter, more peaceful future.

Today I want to share with you how my journey unfolded and possibly help you release the anger, in case you’re going through something similar.

Realizing that the root of my overwhelm was not my packed schedule, the labels, or the future and past worries, but the sense of being out of control, was a turning point. I started focusing on what I could manage and took small steps to regain control over my life. I practiced mindfulness to stay present, set realistic boundaries, and sought tools and strategies that worked for me.

I learned a lot down this bumpy road and I’m not the kind to gatekeep, so I want to share this with you.

Feeling stuck is a common experience, but it doesn’t have to be a permanent state. By understanding the reasons why we stay stuck and taking practical steps to overcome them, we can break free from the cycle and move towards a more fulfilling life. This will sound like some sort of self-help-book bs but remember that you are not broken and you don’t need to be fixed. You just need to make some changes, shift your perspective and start behaving in a way that serves your present and future self. Start with small, manageable steps, and gradually build momentum towards the life that you want. It is possible and you’ll be glad that you started today!

Do you feel so lost in life, like nothing is going right for you? Maybe it’s even the darkest time you’ve ever had. I can totally relate because I was there too. Back in 2014, I left my teaching career, and I just felt so alone and like a failure. I didn’t think there was anything worth living for after that, even though, from the outside looking in, I had it all. I had a beautiful house, a loving husband, two beautiful girls, nice cars, college degrees—you know, the “white picket fence lifestyle.” But it just felt like there was something missing.

In this blog, I’m going to share with you the three reasons why I felt lost, and I hope that they help you on your journey. Make sure you keep reading because I think the third reason is going to be the most surprising!

The way we live our childhood can profoundly impact our beliefs about ourselves, others, and the world, and eventually, that permeates into our relationships. I bet you’ve had at least one relationship in your life where you felt that everything was so familiar, it was easy to read through them, you always knew how to solve the problems because you already went through some of those with your parents, or you saw the way they used to get along and you 100% understood how “normal relationship dynamics worked”. If you’re a bit more aware of the fact that something was wrong back then you might have wondered if your adult relationships are a replay of your childhood ones. Let me tell you, chances are, they probably are to some extent, and maybe you don’t even know it. 

Let’s dive deeper into this topic to see if unhealed childhood trauma is sneaking into your life - and what you can do to leave the past in the past!

Healing is a process that takes time, and mindfulness is a tool you can use every step of the way. By practicing mindfulness, you’re creating new patterns grounded in peace, self-compassion, and a sense of safety. These new patterns replace those grounded in fear, anxiety, or anger. If you’re looking for more information on your healing journey, consider exploring resources on confronting your past for true healing with the support of a therapist, energy healer, or coach. Remember, mindfulness is a powerful ally in your journey towards healing and self-discovery!

The healing journey is unique for each individual, and it’s natural to encounter challenges along the way. By recognizing and addressing these common mistakes, you can navigate your path with greater awareness and resilience. Remember, healing is a continuous process of growth and self-discovery. Embrace the journey, be patient with yourself, and celebrate every step forward.

Embarking on a healing journey is a profound and deeply personal experience. It’s not a linear path but rather a winding road with many twists and turns. In this blog, I want to share the seven stages I encountered during my healing journey, and most likely you’ll find them too. In my experience, these stages don’t necessarily follow a specific order, and you may find yourself revisiting some stages multiple times. Understanding these stages can help you navigate your own healing process with greater awareness and compassion.

Childhood trauma shapes our beliefs and behaviors in profound ways. By understanding and challenging these beliefs, we can begin to heal and reclaim our sense of self-worth. It is a journey of self-discovery and empowerment, allowing us to shine brightly and authentically in the world.

In our interactions with others, we often encounter situations where people try to tear us down instead of building us up. This behavior is usually rooted in their own insecurities and low self-esteem. We may have been that person and didn’t even notice. Understanding this dynamic can help us navigate interactions more effectively and foster a more supportive environment. Let’s dive deeper into it!

Comparison is a tough foe that can hinder our personal growth and prevent us from recognizing our true worth and value. By breaking free from the comparison trap and embracing vulnerability, we can embark on a journey of self-discovery and empowerment that might change our lives forever. As a coach, I encourage you to prioritize self-compassion and gratitude, set boundaries, embrace vulnerability, and seek professional help when needed.
