You're Not a Failure, You're Just Someone Who's Been Surviving | Reflection Friday ~ Day 146

Описание: Hey, this is Francisca—and welcome to My Mid-Crisis L!FE 💫✨

"You're not a failure. You're not dramatic, you're not too much. You're just someone who's been surviving. And now maybe you're ready to live."

This week's Reflection Friday wraps up a powerful journey from boundary-setting to pattern-breaking to choosing something different.
🔄 From Sunday's quiet but final "enough" to Thursday's walking the loop
🧠 Understanding why we repeat what hurts us (it's wiring, not weakness)
💡 The mirror effect: how one boundary reveals all your relationships
🚶‍♀️ Walking the trigger-routine-reward track together
✨ Moving from surviving to living authentically

This integrative reflection covers:
✅ Sunday: The quiet power of saying "enough" and cutting contact
✅ How one boundary becomes a mirror for all relationships
✅ Monday: The psychology of why we repeat painful patterns
✅ Thursday: Walking the looping track without judgment
✅ The shift from survival patterns to authentic living
✅ Community questions for your own pattern recognition
