Say It Brave Resources
When it comes to healing from mental health issues, or attempting anything brave and honest, many of us struggle with the fear of failure. We wonder: will I be worse off than before somehow? What will my life look like if I do commit to healing?
The reality is that most of us stumble along the way to finding these answers. It’s far more normal to have setbacks in the healing process than it is to flawlessly succeed from day one.
Say It Brave resources are designed to support all aspects of your mental health journey … your setbacks, wins, and everything in between.
