Offer a Collaborative Story
When we invite people to be on the same side with collaborative stories, we open the door to more connection in our lives.

You are not broken. Your responses make sense. As you find ways to sit with inner terror and misery and loneliness for as long as they are there, they will gradually shift and make room for new feelings.
When you tend to your body with generous care, you practice feeling better and receiving kindness right now.
To connect more directly with our bodies just as they are right now, we can bring more awareness to eating, hunger, and fullness.
When we can be a kind witness for our hurting selves, we can disentangle painful feelings from the time of year that brings them up.
Resisting oppression can be affirmative, creative, connected, nourishing.
When we do not constrain ourselves to be nice, we can step into the power of showing up as our authentic selves kindly and creatively.
When we can sit with disappointment, we find our own balance between acceptance and efforts toward change.
As we look at the world with more relaxation and clarity, we see more of the beauty and safety available to us.
We thrive on positive feedback, with the occasional bit of corrective negative feedback thrown in.
