Thanks for giving me a structure and/or lens to frame it.

Definitely plenty to unpack. And considering that I just survived and abusive and controlling relationship that almost killed me. And that my current situation with my son living here with his girlfriend and being triggered by their trauma and abusive relationship. And yet I'm still going to school and working on my website etc and I know that I have not only friends and a good therapist as my backup but I see the powerful figure as my guides and guardian Angels / ancestors who've got my back!!!

I've been through some shit, and 11-12 years old is definitely an impressionable age, very vulnerable but on the cusp of womanhood and that whole power. And here I am at menopause with no less power in fact a whole reservoir of more in front of me and that's what I'm also diving into this year with self! I'm going to have to save this post and share it with my therapist LOL I'll have to send her a link in her email 😂😏
