I Won't Belong Ericka Manley

On the final episode, I bring everything full circle! I'm catching you up on what I've been up to, and the additional steps I've taken to get myself out of the season that was affecting me so much. Sometimes, life requires you to re-learn yourself. We experience so many different changes at many different points of our lives, it's important that we understand how to maintain the good and manage the difficult. You may also find the difficult changes to be trauma resurfacing in different ways. Heal. Heal. Heal. Take the time that you need to Heal. Use the resources you have to Heal. Put the work in to Heal. I promise, on the other side of that healing is a better, healthier, and happier you. The message here is a recurring one. No matter how challenging life gets, do not allow giving up on yourself to be an option.
Thank you to everyone who tuned in to my journey! I hope you've been able to take something away that may help you on your own. Until next season remember, If I can help it - We Won't Belong.

Episode 2 will highlight my thoughts surrounding my mood swings and the overthinking that has brought them on. This has by far been one of my biggest challenges to overcome in this phase, simply because this isn’t something that just impacts me, but those around as well.

Often times, negative thinking can shape everything around you - from how you see yourself, how you see others, the aura you give off and your decisions. I talk through my experience, and how those around me have played a key role in keeping me grounded.

Season M3 starts out with me simply talking through it…

A crucial conversation with a not so nice client helped me realize that only I could give power to the negativity spewed my way.

This episode was the turning point in all I had been dealing with over the last 12 or so months. I did things differently and decided not to sit in my thoughts and simply talk through how the interaction made me feel.

If you don’t have anyone you can “talk through it” with, give yourself a listening ear. Fill your mind with positive thoughts and affirmations.

Thanks for listening tribe!
