Take a moment to pause, breathe, and prepare yourself for today's healing message. This episode is about knowing how you want to tell your story in hindsight, and it is the fifth big idea of Season 12 (listen to previous episode for the first four!). Today, I want to explain what happens when you say "yes" to becoming a CycleBreaker, how to weave love and joy into everything you do, why it's vital to plan and structure your healing with intentionality, and how to ensure that your energy levels always match the task at hand. I end today's episode by reminding you of the sacredness of this healing work, and it's worth noting that storytelling and meaning-making are two sure ways to harness pure Personal Power. Also, be sure to check out our brand new website for our training programs, course offerings, and group therapy options at cptsdmedicine.com! I f*cking love you.
