Being seen can feel uncomfortably vulnerable and deeply triggering–especially if it’s the first time you’ve ever felt it. Realizing how long you’ve gone without such a simple human need can uncover wounds that are older than memories. It also leaves you open to more negativity, judgment, and rejection. It’s ok. If you can lean into the discomfort, being seen can be incredibly liberating. It can lead to uncharted levels of self-love and confidence. So go forth! And be seen!
