This is just lovely. It's harder than it sounds to love all the people you once were and appreciate how they've worked so hard to make you who you are now. It's the journey ❤️

I love this! And I love the idea of doing this. I’m not on social media except Substack, so have never heard of this exercise. Yours sounded very healing. To really see my younger self with compassion……did you just sit with your coffee and journal, was it mor imaginary. How do you do this? I Hank you for sharing the person you were and especially the person you are now. Much love, my friend!

I’m so glad you loved it! I’d say do it however you want, but I almost treated it like a fiction exercise, where I pictured the two ‘mes’ as different characters and just let them talk to each other and I typed up what they said. It was so healing!

I’d love to hear what comes up for you as you do this!
