Knowing why doesn’t always change it.
You may already know why you shut down. Why you get angry. Why you pull away. Why you second-guess yourself or keep ending up in the same place you swore you were done with. You may have talked about it, read about it, journaled about it, prayed about it, or beaten the absolute shit out of yourself trying to change it. And still, when it matters, the same thing happens. That doesn’t mean you don’t want it badly enough. It usually means some part of you still believes this is what keeps you safe. That’s where we start.
