Significant change in your relationship patterns isn’t all gain.
It comes with very real loss.
I’ve walked away from love before.
Not because they were a bad person. Not because they didn’t care.
But because staying would have required me to accept too little.
And I know the grief of what could have been.
The ache for the version of the relationship you wish was real.
But here’s the thing:
You can’t receive a golden egg if your hands are already full of potatoes.
Stepping into the unknown – with no guarantees – takes courage.
It takes faith.
It takes a willingness to sit in that uncomfortable gap between “what I had” and “what I want.”
And the only way you get to better is by actually making space for it.
If you keep clutching the potatoes, hoping they’ll magically turn into something golden, you’ll wait forever.
And if you wait until the potatoes rot, thinking it’ll be easier later – you’ll just end up with sticky hands.
The difference between settling for potatoes and going after the golden egg is your ability to accept, and sit with, the feelings of loss now.
Because the gain?
That’s only guaranteed if you take action.
My Emotional Regulation Mini Course is designed to help you do exactly that – so you can face the loss, step forward with clarity, and finally make room for something better.
