Becoming one-of-a-kind
What would it feel like to know you are one-of-a-kind in the best way?
Would you engage relationships differently if you didn’t feel like you had to measure up to someone else’s expectations?
How would it feel to walk into a room knowing you didn’t have to prove anything? Would it change your experience of belonging and connectedness?
Does the idea of believing you are unique | one-of-a-kind | an original, sound intriguing? Uncomfortable? Unfamiliar?
Would standing in what makes you special | lovable | enough | worthy, change who you choose to spend time with? Would it change your confidence?
Would you have clarity around what you value and where your boundaries need to be set?
The journey of becoming one-of-a-kind is a slow steady process of peeling back the layers including:
untangling from unhealthy messages and patterns
learning what interfered with that original design of you
learning how you interpreted historical experiences
learning how you defend against those experiences from ever happening again
and learning how to reframe those experiences to be more true, more accurate, more authentic
Leaning into curiosity about you and your story creates freedom to move forward in healthier ways, put down the defenses, create new responses to old patterns, and change the cycles.
The world is a tough place to live. We encounter others who are also one-of-a-kind and yet … they expect us to be just like them … and we expect them to be just like us … and we find ourselves wracked with anxiety, depression, relational tension, broken hearts, broken connection and protective walls that are more like prisons than a healthy boundary.
You can find emotional and relational health, healthier patterns and coping resources. You can gain personal understanding that brings greater health to your body, your emotions, and your relationships. I’ve walked my own journey of untangling from what has kept me from wholeness and I continue to engage personal curiosity and growth as I link arms with my clients to do the same. Reach out for support if you need it here.
💛 Stay gentle.
