This week we explore the third part of our series on our question: Who am I? We’re going to dive right into a tender heart-space.

This week we clear the way to talk about hard things, and I open up a space for vulnerability--a space to fall into when we need non-judgemental support. So we’re going to normalize talking about mental health, reaching out for support, and holding each other up so we can be our best selves. Opening up this space in the beginning of our relationships paves the way for deep, meaningful connections.

In this final part of our three-part introductory series, we talk about what we are not. For me, that means we're talking about depression. Because depression is harmful to you, it must be resisted. It is not what you are, and it therefore creates a lie about what you can become.

Use the supports you have at your disposal, and seek more support if you don't have enough. You are worth it. You are worth saving. You are worth returning to your best self. Return home, dear one. You must come home to who--and what--you are.
