New year. Same patterns? Or something different this time.
Every January we tell ourselves this is the year things will change.
We’ll speak up more. Set boundaries. Stop over-explaining. Stop abandoning ourselves to keep the peace.
And then life happens…
Old habits kick in. Fear shows up. Guilt creeps back.
This workshop series isn’t about forcing change through willpower or becoming a “new you.”
It’s about understanding why certain patterns exist — and learning how to respond differently, with compassion and skill.
Over this series, you’ll learn:
• Why confidence isn’t a personality trait — it’s built by showing up for yourself
• How past experiences shape your nervous system, reactions, and boundaries
• Practical tools for saying no, navigating conflict, and advocating for your needs
• How to reduce guilt, shame, and self-doubt when you start choosing yourself
• How to create sustainable change without burning yourself out or self-abandoning
This is for you if:
• You know what you want to do, but struggle to follow through
• You people-please, freeze, fawn, or shut down in tough moments
• You’re tired of repeating the same cycles and blaming yourself for it
• You want real tools — not just motivation quotes
This series is trauma-informed, practical, and deeply validating.
No fixing. No pressure. No pretending you’re broken.
Just honest reflection, skill-building, and support — so this year, change actually sticks.
✨ Spots are limited.
✨ Come as you are.
✨ New year, new way of showing up for you.
