I share the reasons behind my decision to take a step back from both work and my marriage, delving into the challenges I faced and the pivotal moments that led me to prioritize my well-being.

Central to my healing journey has been the exploration of Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy, a powerful tool that has helped me navigate through past traumas and rewire my brain's responses. I delve into the intricacies of EMDR therapy, discussing its profound impact on my journey towards healing and self-discovery.

I explore the importance of nervous system regulation in the healing process, shedding light on the role it plays in managing stress, anxiety, and emotional well-being. Through mindfulness practices and somatic experiencing techniques, I've learned to cultivate a deeper connection with my body and regulate my nervous system's responses.

Additionally, I offer insights into the steps my partner and I are taking to mend and strengthen our marriage. From open communication to couples therapy, I share the challenges and triumphs we've experienced along the way, highlighting the resilience and growth that emerge from facing adversity together.
