Does this sound like you?
Struggling with trying to save everyone but yourself
Still keeping trauma in to protect family members
Feel the urge to be strong all the time
Lashing out and unable to respond to situations the way you want
Think “petty betty” is an effective way of communicating your feelings
Tired of not showing up as the best version of yourself
You derserve to show up as the best version of you!
