- 4:12So
- 4:13it
- 4:13was
- 4:13normal,
- 4:14calm,
- 4:16felt

- 4:16I

- 4:19calm
- 4:19and
- 4:20they
- 4:20were
- 4:20slow.
- 4:20And
- 4:21it
- 4:21felt
- 4:22very
- 4:22boring
- 4:22to
- 4:23me.
- 4:23And
- 4:23not
- 4:23only
- 4:23that,
- 4:24but
- 4:24it
- 4:25felt
- 4:25suspicious.
- 4:25I
- 4:25felt
- 4:26like
- 4:26something
- 4:26was
- 4:27going
- 4:27to
- 4:27go
- 4:27wrong.
- 4:28Being
- 4:29in
- 4:29a

- 4:29situation
- 4:30literally
- 4:30felt
- 4:31so

- 4:37chooses
- 4:37what
- 4:37it

- 4:41distant,
- 4:42intense,
- 4:42or

- 4:53And

- 5:30to
- 5:30say.
- 5:30She
- 5:31did
- 5:31a
- 5:31great
- 5:31job
- 5:32explaining
- 5:32this.
- 5:33Because
- 5:33the
- 5:33chemistry
- 5:34involves
- 5:34the
- 5:34cortisol,
- 5:35the
- 5:35adrenaline,
- 5:36the
- 5:36dopamine
- 5:36and
- 5:37the
- 5:37oxytocin,
- 5:38your
- 5:38body
- 5:39becomes
- 5:39addicted
- 5:40to
- 5:40the
- 5:40relief,
- 5:40not
- 5:41the
- 5:41relationship.
- 5:42So
- 5:42when
- 5:42someone
- 5:42pulls
- 5:43away,
- 5:43it
- 5:44hurts
- 5:44like
- 5:44physical
- 5:44pain.
- 5:46When
- 5:46she
- 5:46said
- 5:46that
- 5:46in
- 5:47the
- 5:47episode,
- 5:47it
- 5:47literally
- 5:48Went
- 5:48right
- 5:48through
- 5:48me
- 5:48because
- 5:49I
- 5:49can
- 5:49remember
- 5:49the
- 5:50pain
- 5:50of
- 5:51thinking
- 5:51that
- 5:51someone
- 5:51was
- 5:52going
- 5:52to
- 5:52lose
- 5:52me.
- 5:53And
- 5:53when
- 5:54they
- 5:54don't
- 5:54come
- 5:54back,
- 5:54and
- 5:55when
- 5:55they
- 5:55come
- 5:55back,
- 5:55actually
- 5:57that
- 5:57feels
- 5:57like
- 5:57your
- 5:58oxygen.
- 5:58It's
- 5:58like
- 5:58you
- 5:59could
- 5:59breathe
- 5:59again.
- 6:00Even
- 6:00though
- 6:00that
- 6:01breath
- 6:01might
- 6:01be
- 6:01short
- 6:02lived,
- 6:02it
- 6:03didn't
- 6:03matter.
- 6:03So
- 6:03what
- 6:04your
- 6:04brain
- 6:04put
- 6:04that
- 6:05together
- 6:05with.
- 6:06With
- 6:06is
- 6:07them
- 6:07coming
- 6:07back
- 6:08is
- 6:08relief.
- 6:10And
- 6:10that's.
- 6:11I
- 6:11mean,
- 6:12it's
- 6:12crazy
- 6:12when
- 6:12you
- 6:13think
- 6:13about
- 6:13it,
- 6:13but
- 6:14it's
- 6:14again,
- 6:14it's
- 6:15chemistry.
- 6:16So
- 6:16even
- 6:16when
- 6:16they
- 6:17are
- 6:17the
- 6:17source
- 6:17of
- 6:18pain,
- 6:19you
- 6:20still
- 6:20take
- 6:20them
- 6:20back.
- 6:21It's
- 6:21again,
- 6:21chemistry,
- 6:22biology,
- 6:23not
- 6:24your
- 6:24mind
- 6:24doing
- 6:24something
- 6:25wrong.
- 6:25I
- 6:25want
- 6:25you
- 6:26to
- 6:26promise
- 6:26that.
- 6:27And
- 6:27because
- 6:28of
- 6:28its
- 6:28chemistry,
- 6:28that's
- 6:29one
- 6:29of
- 6:29the
- 6:29other
- 6:29reasons.
- 6:29And
- 6:30again,
- 6:30she
- 6:30did
- 6:30a
- 6:30very
- 6:31great
- 6:31job
- 6:31of
- 6:31bringing
- 6:32this
- 6:32up,
- 6:32why
- 6:32willpower
- 6:33doesn't
- 6:33work.
- 6:34You
- 6:35can
- 6:35know
- 6:35something,
- 6:36someone
- 6:36isn't
- 6:36good
- 6:36for
- 6:37you,
- 6:37and
- 6:37you
- 6:37can
- 6:37still
- 6:37miss
- 6:38them.
- 6:39Logic
- 6:39does
- 6:40not
- 6:40break
- 6:40trauma
- 6:41bonds,
- 6:41guys.
- 6:42That's
- 6:42why
- 6:42boundaries
- 6:43sometimes
- 6:43feel
- 6:44absolutely
- 6:44impossible
- 6:45when
- 6:45you're
- 6:45disregulated.
- 6:46Because
- 6:46survival
- 6:47over
- 6:48wiring
- 6:48overrides
- 6:49logic
- 6:50every
- 6:50single
- 6:51time.
- 6:51Every
- 6:51single
- 6:52time.
- 6:52You
- 6:53don't
- 6:53heal
- 6:53by
- 6:53trying
- 6:53harder.
- 6:54You
- 6:54heal
- 6:55by
- 6:55teaching
- 6:55your
- 6:55body
- 6:56that
- 6:56it's
- 6:56safe.
- 6:58So
- 6:58where
- 6:58does
- 6:59healing
- 6:59actually
- 6:59begin?
- 7:00How
- 7:00do
- 7:00you
- 7:00do
- 7:00this?
- 7:03I
- 7:03think
- 7:03if
- 7:03I
- 7:04had
- 7:04to
- 7:04put
- 7:04it
- 7:04in
- 7:05one
- 7:05sentence,
- 7:05I
- 7:06would
- 7:06literally
- 7:06say,
- 7:07healing
- 7:07begins
- 7:08when
- 7:08you
- 7:08stop
- 7:08asking
- 7:09yourself,
- 7:09what's
- 7:10wrong
- 7:10with
- 7:10me?
- 7:12You
- 7:13have
- 7:13to
- 7:13stop
- 7:13using
- 7:14that
- 7:14sentence,
- 7:14what's
- 7:15wrong
- 7:15with
- 7:15me?
- 7:15And
- 7:16start
- 7:16asking,
- 7:16what
- 7:17did
- 7:17my
- 7:17body
- 7:18learn?
- 7:20That's
- 7:20when
- 7:20you'll
- 7:20stop
- 7:21shaming
- 7:21and
- 7:22start
- 7:22understanding
- 7:23your
- 7:23patterns.
- 7:25That's
- 7:25when
- 7:25you'll
- 7:26begin
- 7:26to
- 7:26learn
- 7:26how
- 7:26to
- 7:27self
- 7:27soothe,
- 7:28regulate,
- 7:29pause
- 7:29and
- 7:30choose
- 7:30different
- 7:30options.
- 7:31Not
- 7:31from
- 7:32force,
- 7:32but
- 7:32from
- 7:33safety.
- 7:34Because
- 7:34boundaries
- 7:34don't
- 7:35come
- 7:35from
- 7:35strength.
- 7:36They
- 7:36come
- 7:36from
- 7:37being
- 7:37able
- 7:37to
- 7:37trust
- 7:37yourself
- 7:38enough
- 7:38to
- 7:38establish
- 7:39them
- 7:40and
- 7:40maintain
- 7:40them.
- 7:41So
- 7:42how
- 7:42do
- 7:42you
- 7:42build
- 7:43a
- 7:43rebuild?
- 7:44Well,
- 7:44I
- 7:44guess
- 7:45build
- 7:45an
- 7:45identity.
- 7:45Rebuild
- 7:46an
- 7:46identity.
- 7:47You
- 7:47had
- 7:47your
- 7:47identity.
- 7:48You
- 7:48were
- 7:48born
- 7:49this
- 7:49person.
- 7:49You
- 7:49knew
- 7:50who
- 7:50you
- 7:50were,
- 7:50but
- 7:51then
- 7:51that
- 7:51got
- 7:51beaten
- 7:52out
- 7:52of
- 7:52you.
- 7:52So
- 7:53it's
- 7:53not
- 7:53something
- 7:54that
- 7:54has
- 7:54to
- 7:54be
- 7:54this
- 7:54big.
- 7:55I'm
- 7:55going
- 7:55to
- 7:55become
- 7:55someone
- 7:56new.
- 7:57First
- 7:57of
- 7:57all,
- 7:57you're
- 7:57not
- 7:57becoming
- 7:58someone
- 7:58new.
- 7:58I
- 7:58want
- 7:58you
- 7:58to
- 7:59hear
- 7:59this
- 7:59very
- 7:59clearly.
- 8:00You
- 8:00are
- 8:01not
- 8:01becoming
- 8:01someone
- 8:01new.
- 8:02You
- 8:02are
- 8:02just
- 8:03going
- 8:03back
- 8:03to
- 8:03the
- 8:04you
- 8:04that
- 8:04you
- 8:04were
- 8:04born,
- 8:05the
- 8:05you
- 8:05that
- 8:05this
- 8:06beautiful
- 8:07maker
- 8:07made
- 8:07you
- 8:09and
- 8:10how
- 8:10you
- 8:10should
- 8:10have
- 8:10been
- 8:10your
- 8:10entire
- 8:11life
- 8:11until
- 8:11someone
- 8:12put
- 8:12that
- 8:12flame
- 8:12out.
- 8:13So
- 8:14again,
- 8:14it's
- 8:15not
- 8:15this
- 8:15big,
- 8:15dramatic,
- 8:16I'm
- 8:16going
- 8:16to
- 8:16become
- 8:16someone
- 8:17new.
- 8:17It's
- 8:17gentle.
- 8:18It's
- 8:18just
- 8:18noticing
- 8:20it's
- 8:21doing
- 8:21something
- 8:21and
- 8:22saying
- 8:23I
- 8:23don't
- 8:23like
- 8:23this.
- 8:24Or
- 8:24doing
- 8:24something
- 8:24and
- 8:25saying
- 8:25this
- 8:25drains
- 8:25me,
- 8:26or
- 8:26doing
- 8:26something
- 8:26and
- 8:27saying
- 8:27this
- 8:28is
- 8:28not
- 8:28aligned
- 8:29with
- 8:29what
- 8:29I
- 8:29want
- 8:29to
- 8:29do,
- 8:31and
- 8:31then
- 8:31changing
- 8:32that
- 8:32pattern.
- 8:34When
- 8:34things
- 8:35happen
- 8:35and
- 8:35you
- 8:35get
- 8:35that
- 8:36little
- 8:36gut
- 8:37punch
- 8:37or
- 8:37that
- 8:37little
- 8:37feeling
- 8:38in
- 8:38your
- 8:38stomach,
- 8:38just
- 8:38ask
- 8:39yourself,
- 8:40do
- 8:40I
- 8:40feel
- 8:40peaceful
- 8:41here
- 8:41or
- 8:42is
- 8:42this
- 8:42just
- 8:42familiar?
- 8:43If
- 8:43you
- 8:44don't
- 8:44find
- 8:44yourself
- 8:44in
- 8:45one
- 8:45big
- 8:45moment
- 8:46of
- 8:46aha.
- 8:48Because
- 8:49you're
- 8:49going
- 8:49to
- 8:49find
- 8:49yourself
- 8:50in
- 8:50thousands
- 8:50of
- 8:51small,
- 8:51honest
- 8:52little
- 8:52moments
- 8:52where
- 8:52you
- 8:53say,
- 8:53this
- 8:54is
- 8:54not
- 8:54aligned
- 8:55with
- 8:55who
- 8:55I
- 8:55am,
- 8:56what
- 8:56can
- 8:56I
- 8:56do
- 8:57one
- 8:57step
- 8:57forward
- 8:58to
- 8:58make
- 8:59it
- 8:59a
- 8:59little
- 8:59easier
- 8:59on
- 8:59myself?
- 9:02But
- 9:02mostly,
- 9:04I
- 9:04think,
- 9:05in
- 9:05what
- 9:05we
- 9:05do
- 9:06and
- 9:06in
- 9:06everything

- 9:09to,
- 9:09we
- 9:09always
- 9:10hear
- 9:10about
- 9:10this
- 9:11pattern.
- 9:11If
- 9:11you
- 9:12don't
- 9:12change
- 9:12the
- 9:12patterns,
- 9:13it's
- 9:13going
- 9:13to
- 9:13be
- 9:13generational.
- 9:14You're
- 9:14going
- 9:14to
- 9:15pass
- 9:15it
- 9:15down.
- 9:15And
- 9:15this
- 9:15is
- 9:16true.
- 9:17But,
- 9:17my
- 9:17friends,
- 9:18if
- 9:18you

- 9:22so,
- 9:22so,
- 9:22so
- 9:23proud

- 9:24Because
- 9:24you've
- 9:25realized
- 9:25you're
- 9:25not

- 9:27And
- 9:27you've
- 9:28also
- 9:28realized
- 9:28that
- 9:28you
- 9:29are
- 9:29the

- 9:31has
- 9:32been
- 9:32going
- 9:32on
- 9:32possibly

- 9:35Much
- 9:35of

- 9:39100%
- 9:40of
- 9:40what
- 9:40you're

- 9:42but
- 9:42it
- 9:43can
- 9:43end
