About this release

My own story is one about letting go of control. I was raised in a high control environment lots of church and 20 hours a very, very difficult, gymnastics practice. As a child the only thing I had control over was my body but when bad things happened I couldn’t change it. When became an adult, I started people pleasing a lot and doing a lot of things to try to fix and control situations and people that I was not responsible for. Of course, this resulted in having manipulative and narcissistic people in my life so when I decided I wanted to cut off everything and everybody that was bad for me; and i did it until i was alone with myself and literally had nothing to change and accept except myself. It was a very long and drastic healing process but i am glad i did it. One thing i was very serious about while burning bridges to the old me, was gardening and taking my own trips. As well, i finally got to the place where i know being alone is better than being in abusive relationships
