The one thing we all have in common is that we want to be happy. Life’s struggles can make it hard for us to feel safe, empowered, and fully ourselves. Happiness can feel out of reach. How do we get so far from our truest, best self? Trauma, depression, anxiety, substance use, anger, and shame are all signs that point to a deeper root – the pain of disconnection. When we don’t feel seen, don’t feel understood, and don’t feel supported, how can we ever hope to feel fully alive?
