Finding Your True Self During the Holidays with Joe Ryan

You do not have to make choices based on what others expect out of you so that they don't feel bad. They're not as important when you have you.
Picture this: you're at a family gathering, surrounded by people who know you well, yet you feel like you're playing a part. In this episode of 'It's Not You, It's Your Trauma', Joe Ryan dives into the emotional complexities of holiday gatherings. He explores how these events often transport us back to our childhood roles, making it tough to stay true to ourselves.
Joe shares his wisdom on recognizing these patterns and offers practical advice on how to navigate the holidays without losing your sense of self. He encourages listeners to pay close attention to their feelings and the roles they play, highlighting the importance of authenticity over fitting in. If you've ever felt disconnected from those you're supposed to be close to, this episode will resonate with you.
Joe's insights provide a roadmap for making choices that prioritize your well-being, even in the face of family expectations. Tune in for a heartfelt discussion that aims to help you belong to yourself, rather than conforming to outdated roles.
