Thank you for this! It's right on time :) I went back to therapy yesterday for the first time in 15 years (hello trauma causing car accident creating PTSD) and my therapist called me out on people pleasing! And also complimented me on being a good therapy student lol (the overachiever in me is thrilled)! So, yeah, this piece from you today - exactly what I needed. Xoxoxo

OMG!! I hate the red light runner who did this to you, but I love to learn about how you are taking care of yourself in the aftermath and aspire to treat me w the same compassion! Thank you for staying rooted with me through the change of DPP!
