Inter Generational Burdens

As a child, you inherit trauma that was never yours to carry, you hold family secrets, and you operate from conditioned behaviors that were taught to you, and placed on you.  You mimic what is around you and the behavior of those who came before you. You sustain ways of staying safe in this world that no longer fit your narrative.

As a teen, it's hard to connect with others. You don't get close to many, and your trust is hard to come by. You feel more responsible than your age, and carry feelings that were taught to you but are not authentic of you.

Generational burdens affects internal messages, belief systems of self and others, the way we cope with hurt, share our wounds and heal from trauma. As you grow into an adult these ways of thinking, doing and being  often are not authentic to who you are, and how you want to move forward in life. 

Let's work together, to challenge these patterns, learn new and healthier skills, remove responsibility to others and prioritize self. 

You are in unfamiliar territory, on the horizon of something shifting. This is supposed to feel good, freeing, relieving even, but it is bringing up quit the opposite. Feelings of anxiousness, imposter syndrome, failure, maybe even regret.

Those around you either can't relate, or don't know exactly how to support this stage in your life.  This can be scary and intimidating and lead you to feel alone, even hinder the growth and changes that are necessary.

Staying in control, staying where we find comfort and know what to expect- may not always be best for us.

Let's identify what is creating the barrier to allow you access, adaptability and the ability to feel deserving of change, growth, branching out and starting fresh.
