I know that asking for help can feel like a burden sometimes. Do you feel like you have to be “everything” to everyone but feel alone when your in need? Are you struggling to say “no” then resent your yes? Do you put everyone before you and then don't have enough time for you or your dreams? Do you feel “stuck” after giving so much and then realize your not making progress in your life? More often than we realize, we tend to lose ourselves giving what we don’t have while trying to manage it all; parenthood, relationships, careers, and life situations. We then become overwhelmed, depressed, anxious, or stuck about our next move.

Navigating life’s transitions whether welcoming a baby, adjusting to family dynamics, managing work stress, or experiencing the challenges of adolescence can feel overwhelming. These moments of change bring uncertainty and emotional highs and lows. Finding peace and balance can feel like taking a deep breath after holding it in for too long-like finally standing on solid ground after feeling unsteady.
