Seven months and creating boundaries is pretty awesome. I believe I may be a decade older than you, or a bit less, and I was dismayed to read how many similarities we have on our journey. Dismayed because it really sucks and I am sorry you had to go through some of them also. I have worked diligently on creating healthy boundaries and found my vehicle in the past two years through teaching and offering workshops. In art! I discovered I have a manner of teaching that engages people and creates success without me solving, fixing, rebuilding or managing anyone else’s life. Like I am capable of doing that anyway! I appreciate your orange couch revalation. I once was writing a book on business partnerships after I lost everything but my house in one (as in all my retirement and savings and business). The writing and research of the book was good therapy for me. But the only sentence I wanted to keep after a year was “don’t do it, ever”.
Dear Patti,
Wow.
I honor you, your challenges, your path and your growth, layer by layer,
learning to care for your sweet self and Self.I love you!
I haven’t read your books, and I’ve been aware of the awesome writing
you share with the world. I know women who’ve attended your programs
who thrive afterwards.I appreciate your humanity and your expanding understanding that helping
others isn’t helpful.To you shining in all the ways you do!
Love, love,
JoyPatti,

Thank you so much for this essay. I am a capable woman who has been feeling unaccountably overwhelmed and sad. I made an appointment for help (two weeks from now) and was feeling guilty ever since. This couldn’t have come at a better time. Blessings…
Hi Patti,
2016 is my Self Love year. You have gifted me with some very useful guidelines! I am grateful to you and your Dr. with the orange couch and bright green socks.
Sending Blessings of healing, peace for your heart and joy to guide your path.
karenThis is inspired and inspiring.
Your depth and honesty are powerful and moving.
Your words make a difference in my life.
Thank you so much,
DianaBreathe dear one, breathe. Allow laughter back into your laugh. Be at peace with yourself and others.
But most of all breathe.
Namaste,
SaraSure sounds like you’ve come a long way. Life keeps happening, despite what we’d like. I’ve found (in the last few years) that I need to learn to like what happens.
Well, a heart attack helps focus your thoughts.
