Sometimes we do not choose what feels good. ✨
We choose what feels familiar.
The relationships we return to.
The behaviours we repeat.
The situations we stay in long after they stop feeling right.
Not because we consciously want the pain, but because some part of us recognises the pattern.
Perhaps love once meant proving your worth.
Closeness meant abandoning your needs.
Safety meant staying quiet.
Connection meant working harder to be chosen.
These patterns are not evidence that you are broken. They are evidence of what you once learned you needed to do to feel safe, loved or accepted.
Awareness gives us the pause.
The moment between repeating the old story and making a different choice.
And although something different may feel unfamiliar at first, unfamiliar does not mean unsafe.
Sometimes, it means you are finally choosing yourself.
If you are ready to understand the patterns shaping your relationships, behaviours and choices, my Inner Child & Pattern Change 1:1 sessions offer a space to begin.
