Now accepting PacificSource (Oregon): You are super kind and nice, except inside, you want more. You anticipate everyone's needs and everyone around you feels taken care of by you. Yet, when no one is looking, you feel frazzled and a little resentful. Others are happy while you feel guilty for setting limits. So you don't. Expressing your needs and desires, creating space for yourself feels selfish. Planting flowers? No creative energy. You keep giving because it's just a little thing to do for them and won't take but a minute. Asking for help, or taking time for your desires, makes you feel guilty, or even embarrassed.
You find that article on 25 ways to soothe your nerves doesn't cut it. And yet you know you need help because the guilt and resentment are driving your decisions. I'm here to tell you that not only is asking for help ok, but that helping people uncover what is underneath the resentment and guilt and build a resilient life is what I love to do.
A resilient life includes your happiness. A life with daily movement and planting flowers. Or designing a whole new garden. Let's talk about how you can move from resentment to resilience. Schedule a consult call. Look forward to connecting with you!
