Storms will come and go, but as we come home to ourselves and our bodies,  we can learn how to withstand them.

[SurvivorsDiscuss @SurvivorsPod23]

Hey fellow white people, listen up! We *will* get it wrong. We have to be okay with that, because it is only through making mistakes that we can learn and grow.

Every survivor wishes there was a magic button we could press and be transported to a future time where we are healed and okay. 

But the healing happens in the journey. Don't rush it. You will get there at the right time.

[SurvivorsDiscuss @SurvivorsPod23]

Anti-racism **has** to be more than an intellectual pursuit. It needs to breathe through every part of our lives.

Abuse lies to us and tells us that we aren't worth the time, money, and resources it might take to find help and healing. 

But it's all lies. 

You are worth all of it; whatever it takes.

The narcissist feeds off your time and your attention.

When that disappears, so does their power.

A great quote from Clare

Unfortunately, many churches aren’t acknowledging what’s happening in their own pews, and people become further victimized when abuse is covered up or left unacknowledged.

In the Christian patriarchal world, there is no room for a person’s authenticity UNLESS who they happen to conform with rigid expectations

This means that queer people have no safe space to be themselves

You are not what shame tells you that you are. 

You are strong. You are a fighter. You are loved.
