so happy to hear that you are doing well and are enjoying your life.
i was just thinking about you today and am so excited about what i am learning and wanted to share it with you...
i was listening to a talk on shame and it's impact on worthiness and think i have uncovered so much about what i have been confused about recently... i have been struggling with understanding what made some of the people (like yourself) on this board able to move forward through this process without getting STUCK in beating themselves up and despair about their M.
brene brown gave a talk on shame on the soundstrue website. she said that she initially thought that people who felt worthy had more beautiful lives (no stretchmarks, hardships, etc.) but what she learned from the research is that it was not that way... that the difference was that in the middle of their struggles, they were not willing to put their worthiness on the table... they were not willing to give that away. They did not get stuck in the SHAME which creates unworthiness. it was not that they did not have feelings of shame but that they were shame resilient and were able to work through those feelings.
i thought of you... and brit... and so many others on here that seemed to move through this process much easier... and i think that may be the key. what do you think?
i was excited to share this with you bc you have helped me question and seek until i discovered this... thank you.
