Emotional Ambush- A Cycle I’m Still Trying To Break

I spent a lot of time telling myself that the things I went through weren’t that bad, that I deserved them, that I was feeling sorry for myself and blowing everything out of proportion.

I would feel ashamed that it still hurts so bad. Like I didn’t have a right to my pain.

Emotional Ambushes are a subtle dynamic with a big effect.

An emotional ambush can reinforce a child’s fear of invisibility.

It actually has such an impact it can determine a child’s risk behaviors as an adult.

I still cry when I watch these videos.

Every little boost helps. The more you share, the more my audience grows.

(and I could get advertisers to foot the bill).

I’ve got BIG plans for a GENTLE TAKEOVER and I can’t do it without you!!
