Would You Put a Band-Aid on a Broken Leg?
Would You Put a Band-Aid on a Broken Leg?
💔 Introduction:
Would You Put a Band-Aid on a Broken Leg?
Of course not. It sounds ridiculous, right?
And yet that’s exactly what we do when it comes to the deep wounds of childhood trauma, abuse, and bullying.
Instead of addressing the root, we try to treat the symptoms.
🚨 Symptom List
Addiction.
Difficulty trusting.
Self-doubt.
Fear of judgment.
Loneliness.
Shame.
Grief.
Abandonment issues.
And so many others.
We chase relief from the surface pain, not realizing we’re ignoring the underlying injury.
Symptoms Aren’t Random—They’re Messages
Symptoms don’t just show up out of nowhere.
They’re messengers. Clues.
Each one is pointing to something deeper, something often buried in childhood.
The Nervous System Doesn’t Forget
Sometimes it’s the big, painful stuff we’ve worked hard to forget.
Other times it’s something that seems so “minor,” it feels almost silly to think it still matters.
But your nervous system remembers.
Your subconscious remembers.
And until it’s addressed, it will keep showing up in your adult life quietly dictating your choices, your relationships, and your sense of self.
This Is Why I Do What I Do
Because true healing doesn’t come from numbing symptoms.
It comes from understanding the source.
When we go there, when we gently, bravely unpack the truth.
We stop treating the surface and start transforming from the inside out.
So Let Me Ask You…
What symptoms have you been trying to put a Band-Aid on?
And are you ready to finally heal the wound beneath?
I’m Here When You Are.
