Shifting how we look at what happened to us changes everything. And the biggest shift you can make is moving from Why Me? to For Me? - it's huge!
Abuse can land you deep in the Why Me? question and sadly, this is a question that keeps you stuck. You're not moving forward with your healing or your life. You're just stuck.
For Me? is a game changer. When you start to think in terms of For Me, you see your experience as a gift - I know, I can hear your screams but if you want to shift your healing into high gear start thinking in For Me.
How? When I first ran for my life, I was deep in the Why Me? bubble and very, very stuck. It was when I realized I was the common denominator in my abusive relationships that I started to think what if him trying to kill me was a gift For Me? What if that night opened up my ability to deeply look at my own wounds and find the strength to heal those? What if he provided me with the possibility of ending my abusive relationship cycle for good?
It wasn't long after I began thinking in For Me, I began to really uncover my gaps and wounds and heal those. And in the process, I realized I was grateful for that night because without that experience I wouldn't be healed, in a healthy relationship, and able to help many women create lives they love.
That night was For Me and when I recognized the gift, the possibilities were endless.
Healing tip: start asking yourself questions that begin with How can I make the experience For Me? What is the gift? What is I need to see in myself? What do I need to heal or shift?
