S5 E16 - Reflections on the Past Year - We Can’t Change What We Can't See

Learn how to JournalSpeak ➡️ ⁠LEARN HOW:⁠  ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.yourbreakawake.com/journalspeak⁠ This episode is a reflection on the past year—not as a reset or reinvention, but as a continuation with more awareness. We can’t change what we aren’t willing to see, and the year behind us holds important information: patterns we repeated, moments we abandoned ourselves, places we showed courage, and pain that was trying to communicate something meaningful. Together, we walk through this reflection slowly and without judgment, reframing pain as information rather than failure, and inviting you to see it as a powerful portal for insight and change. Rather than offering answers, let's focus on honest self-inquiry: Where did I abandon myself, and what did it cost me? Where did I show up bravely? What emotional truths did I avoid? And what pain—physical or emotional—was asking for my attention? This is an invitation to meet yourself more fully as you move forward, with curiosity instead of criticism. Join us!
