This is so great! I love how the safety patterns are mapped to observable behaviors. When you don’t have a framework form which to self reflect, personal growth can seem so complicated or impossible. But this is presented so clearly!
Thanks so much, Malia! I agree, a good framework is very helpful to being able to see patterns clearly, especially when they are unconscious, as they often are. So glad you found this helpful! ❤️
I love this framed as when in “presence” vs “pattern.” I use the Big Five and the Enneagram to observe my patterns, and this awareness of the behaviors and energy I use when I am in emotional pain has helped me become more present. Responsive vs. reactive. I didn’t have kids, which I do believe it’s the ultimate place to see our patterns in action - similar to how romantic relationships also activate our patterns. We’ve been on a similar yet very different journey, and I appreciate your awareness, insights, and deep care you’ve put into your parenting - and writing. You are most definitely a writer. 😊
Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts! I love hearing about your journey, as everyone’s is unique. I likewise find the Big Five and Enneagram to be helpful. Heartfelt appreciation for being on a parallel path and for your support for my writing! ❤️
