Description

<p>Trigger warning: The content in this episode includes suicide. If you would rather not hear about that subject, please be kind to yourself and skip this one. National Suicide hotline: 1-800-273-8255 or Text 988.</p> <p>Spoiler Alert: Content from Season 2 of Ted Lasso is talked about in this episode.</p> <p> Last episode I talked about my process for slowing my life down and taking time for reflection every January. I wanted to share the result of that process and what my intention is for 2023. I shared why I think this process is so helpful given the way our society is structured. My word for 2023 is heal and I wanted to be honest about why healing is a priority for me. I couldn&#39;t do that without sharing my struggles and just how bad things got in my internal world. I found it challenging to write about suicide and at the same time, I&#39;m profoundly proud of myself for being brave and choosing to trust you all with my story. I&#39;m hoping that it will accomplish 2 things. 1) People may get a better understanding of what it can look like to struggle with mental health. 2) People who are struggling right now in silence, will feel seen. </p>
