Survival Me Vs. Healing Me

-
Image
  Recently, I found myself reflecting on some of the names I've been called throughout my life. Guarded. Standoffish. Quiet. Distant. For years, I accepted those labels as personality traits. I assumed that was simply who I was. But healing has a way of revealing things we couldn't see before. As I've learned more about nervous system regulation, trauma, faith, emotional healing, and self-awareness, I've begun to wonder: What if I wasn't being guarded because it was my personality? What if I was surviving? When survival mode becomes your normal, you don't always recognize it. You learn to stay alert. You learn to protect yourself. You learn to keep parts of yourself hidden because somewhere along the way, vulnerability didn't feel safe. Over time, those protective behaviors can become so familiar that they begin to look like identity. But they aren't always the same thing. The truth is, many of us have spent years operating from protection rather than co...

Inconvienient Interuption

 You dont understand why you are so emotional or have no control of your emotions

You were just fine a minute ago, or at least so you thought, since you were able to show up for work everyday, and your side hustles were bringing in the extra income you desired, lets just get to the facts,  you were "the ultimate hustler" making it happen, every time, anything you put your hand to, you became inspirational to watch as you rose, knowing your purpose..

But then one day you fell apart, you began to lose control emotionally and all your calm, cool and collectedness was gone, that's when doubt and fear set in and the future seemed dismal and bleak. 

Seeking professional help seemed to complicate things further with all the diagnosis and labels of disorders placed on you, due to your trust in the "doctors" you believed you were now who they diagnosed you to be. Adding insult to your injury the stigma surrounding these mental health disorders you were now associated with added shame and embarrassment to the point you refrained from talking about it. Who would understand, unless they themselves shared in the same experience, is the thought you were having and coming from a background like yours there was no discussions about anything of the sort, in fact to bring up anything similar was seen as a sign of weakness..

This was me 20 years ago, today I can tell you if you don't address the emotional traumas you have suffered/experienced in your life, it will interrupt your life at the most inconvenient time. You have to make a decision to take a healing journey to holistic wellness for you, because you matter and you always did. Maybe you didn't realize it before but now is the time to become aware and reclaim your life.

It would bring me joy to help you do 2 things raise mental health awareness in you workplace or community by making a purchase on our website www.crafteecreators.com and allow me to get you started on your healing journey. Making a choice to work with me 1 on 1 for 4-12 weeks as we get to the root, address it, and nurture a new perspective to create a regimen or best course of treatment based on what works best for you to live a holistically well life. TEXT "I AM" to 804 250-1511 and you will be contacted to schedule a time for consultation.

Your Body Is Intellegent - Listen!!

   Listen To Your Body Before It Has to Scream “Our bodies are intelligent. When we ignore their signals, we pay the price — in exhaustion, pain, discomfort, and mental fog.” ✨ The Body Speaks — Are We Listening? So many of us have been taught to override our body’s cues. We’re conditioned to push through fatigue, ignore tension, downplay discomfort, and stay "strong" even when we feel like we’re falling apart inside. But your body is wise. It's not betraying you — it's communicating with you. Every ache, every emotional dip, every time you feel drained or disconnected, your body is sounding an alarm. When we ignore these messages, we don’t just brush past momentary discomfort — we accumulate nervous system debt. And eventually, we crash.   I'm learning that when your nervous system is in a constant state of alert, stuck in survival mode (due to trauma, chronic stress, unresolved emotions, or overstimulation), your capacity shrinks. This is often misundersto...
