The Echo
The Echo can look like living a life where you perpetuate feelings that aren't even yours - especially if it might be our only connection with our mom. It's like saying, “The way I'm close to you, Mom, is to suffer like you.”
​
The truth is, we are much more likely to carry our mom or dad's issues when the connection isn't close.
The Wound - "When I was young and I saw your pain, I saw you struggle & I took it on to try to help make it better"
I am living life like you, Mom or/& Dad
The Lesson - Leave your parents pain, anxiety or worries with them, trying to carry it for them doesn't take it away for them, instead it only means you carry it too. By carrying their pain, it opens the potential that you may pass along the pain, anxiety or worries to your children.

Your Essence: Echoing Your Parent’s Pain 🌟
​Question: Do you ever catch yourself acting { or thinking } just like your mom or dad, even when you swore you wouldn't?
It can feel like you're stuck in this loop of repeating their habits and feelings, almost as if you're living aspects of their lives instead of entirely your own.
Being completely honest with yourself, in the privacy of your own mind ...
do you find yourself mirroring parental habits and behaviors, unintentionally reliving their struggles ?​
You can end up living out their struggles as if they were your own.
The trouble is, you can lose sight of your own path & what truly makes you happy.
Insight: Your deep bond with your parents shapes many aspects of your life, sometimes without your awareness. Without recognizing and addressing this pattern:
​
-
Your own desires and aspirations may take a backseat to familial expectations.
-
Repeating painful patterns carried in the family.
-
Finding your authentic voice and identity may feel just out of reach
-
You end up living a series of “shoulds” instead of your own choices
​
Do any of these feel all too familiar?
​
“Me too, I struggle with relationships or money, just like you do”
​​
The deep love between parent and child may have you carrying around their emotional baggage, weighing you down in your own life and instead of lightening the load for your parents - the cycle continues in you and is potentially shared with your children.
​
Be Aware: If you have been unknowingly mirroring parental issues that end up overshadowing your authentic self.
Silver Lining: By acknowledging your parental echoes, you have the opportunity to reclaim your individuality and carve out your unique path.
​
By doing the work to resolve this echo you can protect your children from carrying on these painful patterns.
