There's a shift that happens when you stop asking "What's wrong with me?" and start asking "What happened to me?"
It's not a small change. It rewrites the entire story. Because "What's wrong with me?" keeps you stuck in the shame lens, looking for the flaw, searching for the thing to fix. But "What happened to me?" opens the door to understanding. To compassion. To finally seeing yourself clearly.
This is where unshaming begins.
This week's reflection:
💕 Think about something you've been criticizing yourself for lately. Something you keep circling back to with frustration or judgment. Now, instead of asking "Why can't I just get past this?", ask yourself: "What happened to me that made this pattern make sense?" What do you find when you ask the gentler question?
The answer might surprise you. It usually does. 💜
