The bad news is we don’t get to pick how we feel (begin throwing the rotten tomatoes now). Things happen and we feel. The good news is that we absolutely do get to choose the situations, conversations and relationships that we put ourselves in and we absolutely do get to choose what to do with.Feelings are like toddlers. Some are fun and some are not. At the end of the day, like toddlers, feelings need to constantly be validated or acknowledged.As we allow ourselves to share our vulnerable and raw feelings, the really hard ones, we open ourselves up for connection.

Thank you so much for inviting others to join this journey with us! I'm glad to here that this resonated with you. Feelings are sure tricky, especially when they are generated because of past life experiences but there is hope in owing that there is some choice in what we can do with them!
