Read excerpt
Your survival mindset kept you safe. But some of what it told you was never true. You are too much. You have to earn your place. Trusting people is dangerous. Healing means forgetting. You are not ready. This week I’m unpacking the stories the survival mindset tells, and why believing them is keeping you stuck. It’s time to stop living by rules that were written for a season you have already survived.
