Life After Crisis: Are You Holding Yourself Back from the Life You Created?

What if whatever you've been holding onto for fear of losing yourself (again) is actually keeping you stuck?

After surviving a major crisis, I discovered a version of myself that was strong, resilient, and victorious. But I was so afraid of losing that version of me that I unknowingly held myself back—from love, from joy, from truly stepping into the life I had rebuilt. I spent so much time protecting my transformation that I didn’t realize it was time to stop fighting and start living.

Thanks to the Internal Family Systems (IFS) model, I uncovered the hidden fears that were keeping me stuck and found the courage to fully embrace my life. If you’ve fought hard to reclaim yourself, ask yourself—are you truly enjoying the life you created, or is fear still holding you back? 💛
