We often focus on understanding what happened to us, who hurt us, and why we do the things we do.

But one of the most important questions we can ask is: How have those experiences shaped the way you treat yourself today?

Do you ignore your own needs to keep others happy?
Do you silence your feelings to avoid conflict?
Do you compromise your boundaries because you’re afraid of losing connection?

These are some of the ways self-abandonment can become so “normal” that we don’t even recognize it.

Through years of working with people, I’ve seen how understanding our past can bring tremendous insight. But insight alone doesn’t always change the patterns we continue to live by.

This is why I believe trauma-informed work must go beyond understanding what happened to us. It must also help us rebuild the relationship we have with ourselves.

It was meaningful to connect with Dr. Gábor Maté at the Compassionate Inquiry conference, where these conversations are central to the work we’re passionate about.

Healing isn’t just about understanding why you learned to abandon yourself. It’s about learning how to stop. ❤️

The reason you stay in the hurt your partner caused is because your nervous system learned to normalize that behaviour.

It might hurt you, but hurt is more bearable to stay in than the loss of connection.
It’s what you learned in your childhood home; sometimes you cry, and you may not feel seen and heard everyday, but it still creates the home you learned to call safety.

The people who may have not always given you that emotional support you needed, because they were busy, or had too much going on, those people became your role model for emotional safety.

So the child you who got grounded and cried their eyes out in the bed because they felt abandoned learned that emotional pain and hurt will not threaten your existence, but loss of connection might.

Those are the programs you keep replaying in relationships without knowing.
That’s why you choose to stay with someone who causes pain and a sense of emotional abandonment, because it’s what you’ve been trained to do. It’s what your nervous system has been trained to do.

The good news is that you can break out of those self-abandonment patterns and start protecting yourself from heartache instead of keeping yourself in it.

Some people have been in character since childhood.
And the scariest part? They don’t even realize they’re wearing a mask anymore.

Maybe you learned early on that being yourself wasn’t always safe. That you had to be agreeable, easygoing, successful, attractive, or whatever others needed you to be to feel loved and accepted.

So you adapted.

You became really good at reading people, keeping everyone happy, and hiding the parts of yourself you thought might be rejected.

And eventually, that performance started feeling like your personality.

But here’s something worth asking yourself:

Do people actually know YOU, or just the version of you you’ve learned they’ll accept?

You don’t have to keep performing to deserve love and connection.

And unlike your Halloween costume, this is one mask you might need some help taking off. ❤️

And that’s exactly why I’m so good at what I do.
It helps me understand what you might be in, and helps me direct sessions to discussions that you would have never brought up.

Not because you didn’t want to, but because you weren’t aware of it.

That’s called a coping mechanism, and it’s why you can’t work on yourself effectively without someone else’s helpful insight.

So you can stop looking over limitations you’ve accidentally learned and integrated as your personality.

Follow me for more insight about yourself and why you aren’t feeling fulfilled.❤️

I have a confession to make. I had an ex like that, and it was the biggest shock, because I would have never
thought he’s not who he is with me.

There were signs, like when I said something that he wouldn’t like, he had a bit of doubt in his eyes while he was agreeing, or he’d share an opinion and say he was joking when I didn’t agree.

But they were very subtle signs.
We shared nature, outdoor activities and down-to-earth values. And the minute he was with someone else that completely changed.

And I mean complete 180-degree change into fashion, designer, big-city life and whatever else made his next relationship work. I was shocked.

It’s when I realized, I’ve been lying to myself all along too, just to make it work with him.
I noticed the signs that were actually huge red flags about him wanting attention from other people, and holding information from me or others just to remain liked.

And I explained them away. All of it. I tried to make it work while I was bending backwards.
Of course, back then it wasn’t that obvious, but looking back at it, I definitely tried convincing myself that it isn’t that bad.

All this to say, shapeshifters are amongst us, and sometimes we cover our own eyes and try not to notice.
Because just like them, sometimes we don’t want to lose connection either.

In an ideal relationship, both sides are rooted and aware enough of themselves that they do not bend where the wind blows them. They know who they are, and openly address disagreements and things that need to be addressed instead of shapeshifting to be liked.

Now it’s what I help my clients with.

Most people seek validation from others to feel better about themselves, and people who know their worth without others’ approval are the ones who reach true success in love and life.

As a trauma-informed professional with two decades of experience, it became clear to me that everyone runs a negative bias about themselves deep inside, even if they don’t know about it.

“I’m not good enough” or “There’s something wrong with me” are the core beliefs everyone carries.
These run our lives from the background without us knowing unless we expose them with professional help.

And while many people try their best to mask them, a performed image of ourselves cannot last. It will attract fake people and a fake life around it, which leads to unfulfillment while everyone thinks you’re ok.

But when you can address these beliefs instead of acting as if they wouldn’t exist, everything changes.
That’s when you can truly believe in a life you deserve and create it instead of faking your life away.❤️

That’s what I can help with!

I’m a big Mountain Bike fan, because it directly works with the nervous system, although many people may not see it that way.

It was an absolute treat for me to attend the first ever Redbull Hardline in BC, Canada. The biggest and most extreme downhill mountain biking race in the world.

Mountain biking is amazing, and it can be a source of child-like fun with the joy of nature and flow, but it takes “a lot of guts”.

From a psychological point of view, that means it requires work with the nervous system and overcoming fear.

Here’s where a lot of people get it wrong. These riders don’t just huck themselves off a cliff with their bikes while simply pushing through fear. They build up to it, and teach their nervous system what can be considered safe or not based on their skill level.

Every sport can work with or against your nervous system, depending on your awareness to it.

If you use a sport like this to distract from your emotions or to keep proving to yourself and others that you’re good enough, you’ll have to face consequences of injury and a completely dysregulated nervous system.

Although you might have fun, you won’t know why you’re so stressed, irritated or have health issues.

But if you use it as a tool to connect mindfully with yourself, and learn how to experience and handle your emotions and nervous system on the bike (and off it), it can become a powerful tool for self-development and fulfillment. ❤️

I said what I said.
He didn’t know how to deal with his big emotions.
You should probably start looking for someone who can.

That means doing the inner work, so you recognize and no longer feel attracted to people who can’t give you the emotional safety you need.

Follow me, it’s what I can help you with❤️

Learning how to relate to yourself means knowing how to relate to your emotions.

The nervous system and your emotions are intertwined, so if you feel sadness or fear as discomfort or something you don’t know how to be at peace with, you will definitely get agitated if someone else feels their emotions around you.

That will lead to arguments, disagreements and conflicts, because the relationship will be about trying to keep the peace instead of holding the safe space for each other.

Those are two very different types of relationships, and the healthy one that you may have never experienced yet is the one where you can feel emotionally at ease and safe.

That is usually a learned skill, it doesn’t come by luck.

Most pathways and programs in your mind and nervous system are already fixed, and they determine how you relate to certain emotions or if you sense them as a threat.

The good news is, that you have the power to reprogram those pathways, so you can learn to truly love yourself and finally feel emotionally safe!

But you can’t solve a problem on the same level it was created, that’s where I can help.
I help people create true love, safety and fulfillment in their relationships with others and themselves.

Knowing your limits is one I the most useful skills you can know, but it’s probably something that was never taught to us.

When we feel like work is so overwhelming, or our relationship is exhausting, the best thing we can possibly do for ourselves is just allow our nervous system to relax.

That feeling that you still didn’t do enough, or there’s more that you need to do…that’s a program we play in repeat and most of the time it runs unattended.

We react to it, but never question it. Because of course…there’s always “something to do”.

But sometimes the best thing you can do is notice that there actually isn’t. To notice that you’re allowed to relax.

And don’t be surprised if that’s hard to do either, that is another strong sign from your nervous system because it’s been running on overdrive for too long.

An overwhelmed nervous system will eventually result in health issues, relationship issues, issues at work and other areas of your life.
