About You
Feel stuck and know something has to change, and that a more meaningful and balanced life is possible, but are not sure where to begin.
You’ve been called sensitive, creative, or passionate but you’ve set your dreams aside in order to live a life that’s been mapped out for you.
May be struggling with depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, or relationship challenges.
Feel called to live more fully in alignment with your values in work and relationships, but are fearful about stepping into your potential.
Fear that you don’t deserve to feel better, make changes, or ask for what you need.
Worry that if you change and grow the people and causes you care about will suffer or you will end up alone.
Take care of others and have trouble setting boundaries and asking for help.
Find yourself repeating unhelpful patterns in relationships that prevent you from making meaningful connections.
Find yourself frequently turning to substances, sex, food, excessive exercise, or other behaviors compulsively.
Have trouble trusting yourself to make the right decisions.
You’ve been living for a long time with the belief that you can manage everything on your own, but something is telling you that now is the time to reach out for help.
