Do you sometimes feel easily triggered, overly sensitive or thin-skinned?

This could be, because you are trapped in a cycle of unmet needs, weak boundaries and constant resentment.

BUT, now comes the thing! Many people can’t link this behavior with their bigger struggle: They have a super hard time meeting their own needs and wants.

Well, today, you have the chance to unlock exactly that.

You will understand why you struggle so much to meet your needs and wants

Where these feelings of being easily triggered, overly sensitive and being permeable come from (linked with CPTSD)

And I will give you a 3-step solutions-plan on how to break free from this cycle and reach the life you’ve been longing for—one where your needs & wants are finally heard and met.
