How to Heal by Loving Yourself First
We all carry the quiet ache of a love that was never returned, never seen, or never spoken.
At some point in your life, your anger outbursts served you. The young child who could manipulate their parent. Now as an adult, it is costing you dearly.
Anger is not who you are - it’s what you learned. Somewhere in your early life, explosive anger became the tool to survive, to be seen, to gain control in a world that felt unsafe. Back then, it may have helped you get what you needed. But now?
Now it’s eroding trust. Pushing people away. Costing you the peace and connection you so deeply long for.
The good news? What was learned can be unlearned. You are not bound to repeat the same cycle over and over. You get to choose a new response. You get to rewire how you react - but only when you decide it’s time.
This is your moment of power. Not to shame yourself, but to grow. To reclaim your calm. To show up in a way that strengthens relationships, not breaks them.
You were never broken. You simply did what you knew. But now, you know more. And with support, you can do different.
You can be calm. You can lead with clarity. You can be free.
If this speaks to you, let’s talk. You are not alone in this.
