What I wish I’d known before stepping into a trauma informed service provider as a viable life and career path…. ⬇️

1️⃣ I would have done it sooner. 

BUT…process is one’s own process, and whenever that time is right, the universe will give back all that you are seeking. There is no deadline, only your timeline. It’s not a race to the end. 

2️⃣ Coming from a woman who has built brands, designed print and product, mentored and coached entrepreneurs in brand, messaging, and product marketing strategy: you don’t have to have your brand figured out to start, you just have to know yourself and share what you know. The right audience will come to you when you step into that authentic space. 

3️⃣ Whether its we’re or were - it’s or its, the message is more important than the grammar. There will be typos. Likely on every post here. There was one on the last post on my cover image. It’s like my eyes have designed so much yet brain is under compensating for the editing, and not always catching the typos. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Despite my mom’s best effort to support my 
English, Dyslexia is a little 💩.

Humanizing myself while putting myself out there. 

4️⃣ I wish I had not stayed hidden so long. Unpacking a dysfunctional construct of humility and submissiveness was a huge realization in how religious systems can cause trauma. Not for everyone, but for me it did. To submit was to suppress, and also to hide. 

When I started offering myself compassion after participating in PAT (psych3d3l1c assisted therapy) in 2023 mapped to integration coaching & paired with Compassionate Inquiry, I started to show up differently.

Compassion for self always wins.
Much easier said than done.
