Hope Games Challenge: The Gentle Brag
Most of us are experts at pointing out what’s wrong. But noticing what’s right about ourselves? That’s a skill worth practicing. Challenge: Share one thing you’re proud of yourself for recently.• It can be tiny.• It can be messy.• It can be something no one else even noticed. A gentle brag counts here. Did you rest when you usually push yourself? Did you show up even if you were anxious? Did you take a break without guilt? Did you speak up for yourself? Whatever it is — we want to celebrate it with you. Drop your gentle brag below.

When the Holidays Don’t Feel Like “The Most Wonderful Time of the Year”
For some people, the holidays feel warm and magical. For others, they can be heavy, complicated, or lonely — even when we’re surrounded by people. The truth is, this season can bring up a lot: • grief for people who aren’t here • family tension or painful memories • financial stress or pressure to “be happy” • feeling left out, disconnected, or misunderstood • longing for relationships that feel broken or distant You can love the lights and still feel heartache. You can be grateful and still feel overwhelmed. You can have people around you and still feel alone in your experience. Human emotions don’t fit into holiday greeting cards — and they don’t need to. If this season stirs up more pain than peace, please know you’re not broken. You’re human. You’re carrying history, love, loss, and hope all at once. If you want to share, how does this time of year feel for you?There’s no right or wrong answer. Just honesty. We’re here with you.

Holiday Blues
I was talking to a good friend of mine and he told me that the best way to get over my past is forgiveness. When he said that I got a knot in my pit of my stomach and the thoughts of not wanting to be here came rushing in. It is just a word that triggers a intense feeling of sadness, and I don't know why or how to move out of it. I do not want to hate or hold a grudge against anyone, but some of the wounds cut so deep forgiveness feels impossible. Even worse when it is my siblings. If they were on fire I would not piss on them to put out the flames, and I do not like that I feel that way about them. It is especially tough this time of year as in 2023 and 2024 Thanksgiving and Christmas did not happen for me. No tree, no presents, no family. This year will be different, I am spending the holidays with my girlfriend and her family, but I am really missing my daughter who has not spoken to me in over two years. I am hoping that creating new positive memories of the holidays will help me move on.

@Bryan Harris Thank you for trusting us with this. What you’re describing makes a lot of sense, and I want to say something important right away: if the word “forgiveness” feels heavy or triggering, that does not mean you’re doing something wrong. It usually means your nervous system still doesn’t feel safe around those memories or those people. The body reacts before the mind understands why. Sometimes “forgiveness” gets thrown at people like a finish line — as if it’s the only way to heal, or something you owe others in order to move forward. But forgiveness is not a requirement for peace, and it’s definitely not a speed goal. Right now, your only job is to take care of you. Not to let anyone back in. Not to “get over” anything. Just to create a life that feels safe and meaningful for you. What you’re already doing — building new memories, letting yourself experience a different kind of holiday, and investing in connections that feel safe — is healing. You don’t have to rush the parts that still sting. If the word forgiveness brings pain, you can set that word down for now. Instead, the focus can be: - protecting your peace without pretending nothing happened - allowing yourself to feel anger without being consumed by it - building a life that doesn’t revolve around who hurt you - choosing what relationships deserve space in your future That is healing. It’s strength. It’s dignity. The relationship with your daughter matters deeply, and missing her doesn’t make you weak — it makes you human. Creating new memories this year doesn’t erase the pain, but it does make room for something good to exist alongside it. You deserve that. If you ever want support in navigating this — not to rush toward forgiveness, but to understand your reactions and protect your well-being — we’re here. You don’t have to figure this out alone.
