Does this sound like the set of challenges you might be facing?

  • I keep my small wins to myself because it feels like bragging, so they quietly evaporate
  • I’ve come far enough through my own version of this that I want to be the person I needed back then for someone just entering it
  • Something genuinely good happens and I just sit on it
  • Almost all my discretionary money goes to treats for myself and the lift fades fast, and I notice the moments I actually felt good were the small things I did for other people
  • The people I lean on are great at making me feel better in the moment
