5. Starting your Healing Journey, What to Expect, and Lessons Learned from Therapy
So you want to get into therapy? First of all, congratulations on making that decision! It takes guts and determination to be able to say you need help and to go out and get it. Therapy has been such a blessing for me and in this episode of the podcast I get into some of the lessons learned from my own healing journey about: Doing things scared Understanding and coping with negative emotions Correction negative though patterns Taking chances, and more I personally used BetterHelp (NOT SPONSORED), but there are plenty of other resources available.

Don't be afraid to ask for help if you need it. If you're feeling overwhelmed or confused trust that you're not alone. Therapy can be intimidating. You will grow, you will be challenged, you will be corrected, but you will also become a better person and learn more about yourself in the process.
