hey, you did great today
Hey Reader,
You did so great today. You should be proud of yourself for however you showed up, in whatever capacity.
Despite everything you have going on in your life, you got through it! Rockstar. Maybe it was everything you wanted, or maybe a few things went wrong, either way I know you did your best bc I know what you're like. You're someone who tries really hard and cares a whole heck of a lot.
You put others first most of the time and feel weighted with the responsibility of bringing joy to life.
You are so awesome. And I know you're also tired. And maybe you feel a little underappreciated.
So I wanted to take a moment and show you compassion, love, and gratitude.
Thank you for being here. Thank you for allowing me to show up in your inbox and especially for opening my emails. I feel a tickle in my heart every time I see that you opened, clicked through, or came to join me on the socials.
Thank you for connecting with me in some small way and sharing in this existence.
You really did good today and I mean it. Be proud. Give yourself a hug. And then go ahead and let this day go.
If you found yourself drained by family members or toxic people in your life, get The Boundary Setting Workbook and make sure that doesn't happen at your next gathering. Curious about what's in the book?
I'm here for you.
If you've already purchased the workbook and have questions, reply to this email. Let me know how it's going and what's working for you.
Sending you so much love and light.
In warmth & growth,
Joscelyn Kate

Defensiveness is two people pointing weapons at each other, one must put theirs down first for anyone to start feeling safe. PERSPECTIVE SHIFTS Last week I shared a story on threads and talked about both my experience in couples counseling and sharing that story with other people. I had to admit that I was wrong in order to move forward in my relationship. My husband also had work to do, but that was his business and his choice. My work was to see where I was holding up a weapon and choose to...
The first step to turning an unhealthy relationship into a healthy one is taking care of yourself. PERSPECTIVE SHIFTS I recently shared a story on threads about my husband and I in couples counseling. In the story, I talked about how I thought I had our problem all figured out but I was wrong. Something I didn't expect from sharing that story, was how many people would commend me for admitting my fault and taking accountability. I realized what a strength it is to admit being wrong and how...
Expressing your thoughts and feelings will feel like a burden if you're overly concerned with how it makes someone else feel. PERSPECTIVE SHIFTS When you're made to feel like you're too hot to handle, you're more likely to withhold your true thoughts and feelings.
