Dr. Heidi Green (@drheidigreen): "Do you lie to your therapist? Maybe you make minor changes to a story so you don’t look so bad? You want validation, I get it. We all do! But when you leave little details out you risk not getting the help you need to improve your relationships and your life. Remember, your therapist isn’t your friend. Our job is to help you be healthier and we can’t do that if you don’t tell us the whole truth.
.
Here’s what I suggest:
.
If you are worried about your therapist judging you, bring it up to them. You should feel like your therapist isn’t judgmental even when they give you tough feedback.
.
If you feel like your therapist doesn’t give you enough validation and positive feedback, tell them! This is a working relationship and we can always adjust to make the dynamic work better for you.
.
If you need to tell your therapist something you feel ashamed about, start the conversation with, “I have to tell you something but I’m feeling a lot of shame around it,” or “I feel a lot of fear about what I need to tell you.” This generally primes people to be attentive and empathic so you are more likely to get a positive response. This works with everyone, not just therapists, so try it in your personal relationships too!"

Amen
Awakening, fully on purpose, aligned. That’s what the world needs from us. That’s what we need from us.
Tomorrow, in a 3 day challenge, we are going on a journey to listen within to that often too small of a voice that is so very wise. She knows.
She is waiting for you to listen.
And she is ready to take you on a journey that will bring you more joy and happiness and fulfillment then ever before.
Join me tomorrow where I’ll be sharing practical tips to listen to your own inner knowing, Trusting Your Feminine Voice. ✨For your business.
✨For your families.
✨For your life, for our world.
Can’t wait to go on this journey with you tomorrow... who’s joining me live at 4pm PT?! ♀️
Are you making excuses for your bad behavior? Remember that trauma, mental illness, grief/loss, and other mental health issues are NOT an excuse to behave badly or treat others poorly.
.
Mental health issues explain, not excuse, undesirable behavior. Once you understand the root cause of your actions it is your responsibility to do the healing work so you can show up as your healthiest self.
.
How do you hold yourself accountable? I apologize when I’m out of line, and then make a concerted effort not to behave that way again. Sometimes I ask myself, “What would my healthiest self do right now?”
.
What works for you?

We have all experienced the disingenuous “I’m sorry.” Those two little words aren’t always the best way to apologize. In fact, sometimes it just feels canned and makes the other person more upset. Here are more thoughtful and authentic apology statements:
.
*I can see your point. I hadn’t thought about it that way.
*I didn’t intend to hurt you. The truth is, I did not consider how this would make you feel.
*I’m really glad you told me your feelings on this. Im going to change my approach.
*Your feelings are valid. I want to make this right.
*Your feelings are important to me. What can I do to resolve this for you?
.
Remember, any apology is meaningless without changed behavior. If you are going to apologize, you need to be prepared to back it up with action!
.
I offer you this reflection for today - Do you owe anyone an authentic apology?

Who hates you for reasons you would never seek to change because changing those would look like compromising who you are?
