I saw this beautiful piece yesterday on a friends page + she was happy for me to share this, thank you Kelly 🫶🏻 ❤️🩹❤️🩹❤️🩹 Sometimes people walk away from love because it is so beautiful that it terrifies them. 😳 Sometimes they leave because the connection shines a bright light on their dark places and they are not ready to work them through. 🫥 Sometimes they run away because they are not developmentally prepared…
We tend to think the way other people treat us is to do with us personally. Most of the time, that’s not true. ☺️ Most of the time what people say is actually nothing to do with you.

Do you agree with this statement? On a daily basis I work with clients who struggle to manage their emotions. Some are completely disconnected from them and have a hard time knowing how to even state what emotion they are feeling other than simply “good” or “bad”.
