I heard something recently that stuck with me: “When you can remember something traumatic without being emotionally hijacked by it, it becomes wisdom.” That doesn’t mean you forget what happened and suddenly think it was ok, and it defo doesn’t mean you have to be grateful for the shite you’ve experienced.

Back when I started my healing/personal development journey I was in my early twenties, so I’ve been on that journey for 20+ years now.
