Today we’re talking about support yourself during the hard seasons—and what it looks like when you have to be your own safe place.
Some seasons are heavy.Some days, getting out of bed feels like a miracle.Some days, breathing through the next hour is the biggest victory you’ll claim.
In this episode, I’m sharing what support looks like when you’re in the thick of a thing — when there’s no map, no quick fix, and no easy way to name the weight you’re carrying.
We’re sitting with the real and the raw:
How support can mean letting yourself fall apart without rushing the cleanup.
How being your own safe place might be the softest, hardest thing you do all day.
How support during hard seasons often starts with giving yourself permission to not be okay.
If you’re in a season where life feels too heavy to dress up in pretty words...If you’re breathing your way through sadness, loneliness, or silent grief...If you’re learning how to stay soft with yourself when the world expects you to be hard...
This isn’t a how-to guide.It’s not a motivational pep talk.It’s a soft landing.A real-time reflection.A slow, sacred breath in the middle of the storm.
Because even in the thick of a thing, even when you feel like you’re falling apart, you are still worthy of support — especially your own.
