Trauma, Therapy, and Tenderness: Finding My Path To Healing

Why Do I Always Feel Like I'm Not Enough? The Hidden Culprit You Never Suspected

Hey there, beautiful souls! Ever feel like you're wearing an 'I'm not enough' t-shirt that only you can see? Spoiler alert: it's not because of your high school bully or that time you tripped in front of your crush. We're diving into the sneaky world of childhood emotional neglect and how it's been messing with your self-worth since your SpongeBob pajama days. In this episode of 'Be Gentle With Me,' we're solving for X, where X = Your Inherent Awesomeness. Here's what we're unpacking: * The 'Not Enough' Epidemic: More common than the common cold, less fun than a root canal * Childhood Emotional Neglect: It's like growing up in an emotional desert when you needed an oasis * Types of Childhood Trauma: A crash course in 'what type of trauma do I have?' (Spoiler: You're not crazy, you're coping!) * The Lasting Impact: How your inner critic became an overzealous bodyguard * Breaking the Cycle: Because 'how do adults heal from childhood trauma?' is the new 'what's the meaning of life?' Whether you're a perfectionist, a people-pleaser, or just feeling a bit lost in the adult world, this episode is your emotional GPS. We'll navigate the twists and turns of self-worth, toss that 'not enough' t-shirt in the donation bin, and start your journey to healing from childhood trauma. Plus, download our free 'Practical Steps to Start Your Healing' workbook. It's like a personal trainer for your emotions, minus the intimidating muscles and protein shakes.

You're just working with an emotional toolkit that's missing a few key tools. But don't worry - we're about to go shopping at the Home Depot of healing.
