I was asked the question the other day, “How is a generational curse broken?” That is a great question. I want to give you my interpretation and explanation of this question. First the term “generational curse” sounds worse than it is, it’s not a curse. Curses are intentional, generational curses are not intentional. The “curse”Continue reading “Generational Curses”

Survivors or Superheroes
I identify as a survivor. On each Dealing to Healing social media platform, my bio reads the same, “Survivor of abandonment, narcissists relationships, trauma & addiction.” The first definition of survivor is a person who survives, especially a person remaining alive after an event in which others have died. A second definition is a personContinue reading “Survivors or Superheroes”
Fear Not
Next month I’ll be certified as an Enneagram cohort. While I was in class last month, we learned when fear comes up in us, it often dictates our thoughts and actions. When we think of fear, we may think of physical harm or danger but the fear from our being is what surfaces when weContinue reading “Fear Not”
The Tribe Vibe
Finding and attracting our tribe is one of the best tools we can have for healing and our emotional health. It’s important to find those with who we can share our darkest truth and they don’t extinguish or diminish our pain by changing the subject or judging us for our truth. Find a tribe thatContinue reading “The Tribe Vibe”
Feeling Myself
I’ve been sharing some of my childhood trauma with you this week. Abandonment trauma and emotional neglect are real. Just because we never receive it as a child and sometimes through our adult years, that doesn’t mean we don’t crave and desire it. People who grow up with less still desire more. It’s why nobodyContinue reading “Feeling Myself”
It was Traumatic
Sometimes we are not even aware of how traumatic an event was in our life until we talk about it. It’s why I’m a huge advocate for therapy. Until we find a safe space to open up and share our stories then we are often not aware of just how bad it was for us.Continue reading “It was Traumatic”
Deflection Behavior
Do you know someone who will get mad about something simple? Have you ever told someone something and they changed their attitude towards you but you didn’t know why? Have you ever shared something and the next thing you know they are bringing up something from the past? I have experienced all of these situations.Continue reading “Deflection Behavior”
Real Power
Knowing who you are with humility is real power. Being humble enough to be in a subservient position is powerful. Power is not a title, power is not flashing cash, and it’s not the house you live in or the car you drive. Red bottom shoes, Gucci belts, 5-star restaurants, or how many followers youContinue reading “Real Power”
Still I Rise
There was a tweet from a therapist regarding whether therapists should tell their patients “I’m proud of you.” The tweet became a conversation that I did not indulge in because I don’t need anybody to tell me they are proud of me because I’m proud of myself. Here’s how you know you’ve come a longContinue reading “Still I Rise”
Are You Ready?
Sometimes our heart’s desires, our dreams, and our purpose is not revealed or come to fruition because we are not ready. The timing of an event is everything. If we receive it too early then we may not be able to handle it. And if we cannot handle it then sometimes what was meant toContinue reading “Are You Ready?”
