There are moments when it all feels like too much, when the pain of betrayal, the weight of healing, or the sheer exhaustion of trying to hold it together leaves you questioning your strength. In those moments, the most important decision you can make is not to fight harder, or fix everything, or know exactly what to do. The most important decision is to not abandon yourself. In this episode, Luke offers a deeply grounded reminder: You don’t have to be fully healed to keep going. You don’t need all the answers to stay. But you do need to stay in the room with yourself. This is your invitation to light a candle in the dark, to choose presence over escape, and to remember, you are worth not giving up on. 🔑 Key Takeaways: ✔️ Why our instinct is to check out or overfunction when things get hard ✔️ The lie pain tells us about our worth and capacity ✔️ What it actually means to “stay in the room” with yourself ✔️ How small acts of self-loyalty build resilience and self-trust ✔️ A grounding metaphor to carry with you in your lowest moments 💬 Reflection Question: What’s one small way you can stay with yourself today, especially if you feel like giving up?
