🍂 FRIDAY | LEAVE SOMETHING HERE

Before you head into the weekend, imagine setting down something you’ve been carrying all week.

Maybe it’s…

Comparison.

Guilt.

The need to please everyone.

Perfectionism.

A mistake you keep replaying.

Someone else’s opinion of you.

The pressure to have everything figured out.

A conversation you cannot change.

Or something entirely different.

You don’t have to carry every thought, expectation, or worry into another week.

So let’s do something a little different today:

👇 What are you leaving behind this week?

And if you want to take it one step further…

What are you choosing to carry into the weekend instead?

Maybe peace. Rest. Connection. Grace. Hope. Or simply permission to slow down.

We’d love to hear yours. 🤎

🤎 THURSDAY | YOU DON’T HAVE TO WAIT UNTIL IT’S A CRISIS

One of the biggest misconceptions about therapy is that things have to become really bad before you’re “supposed” to ask for help.

They don’t.

You can reach out when you notice you’re becoming overwhelmed more easily.

When your anxiety is starting to interfere with everyday life.

When something feels different and you can’t quite explain why.

When you’re grieving.

When your relationships feel harder than they used to.

When parenting feels overwhelming.

When you’re navigating a major transition.

Or even when life looks perfectly fine from the outside, but something inside you keeps saying, “I’m not okay.”

You don’t have to wait for the breaking point.

Sometimes reaching out before the crisis is one of the kindest things you can do for yourself.

If you’ve been thinking about therapy lately, consider this your reminder that your struggles don’t have to reach a certain level before they deserve support. 🤎

💚 Celebrating 8 Years with Leslie! 💚

This October, we’re celebrating a very special work anniversary—the person who started it all!

Leslie founded The Nest Therapy Group in 2018, creating a space where people could feel supported, understood, and cared for through some of life’s most challenging seasons. Eight years later, that vision has grown into the incredible team and community that make up The Nest today.

In her clinical work, Leslie has a special passion for supporting perinatal women and teens, walking alongside her clients through seasons of change, growth, uncertainty, and healing.

We’re so grateful for the heart, dedication, and vision Leslie has poured into The Nest over the past eight years—and for the countless lives that have been touched along the way.

Please help us wish Leslie a very happy 8-year anniversary! 🌿💚

🍁 TUESDAY | THINGS YOU’RE ALLOWED TO DO

A little reminder today:

You are allowed to…

🤎 Rest without earning it.
🤎 Say no without writing an entire paragraph explaining why.
🤎 Change your mind.
🤎 Outgrow people, places, habits, and expectations.
🤎 Ask for help.
🤎 Have a difficult day even when you have things to be grateful for.
🤎 Protect your peace.
🤎 Set boundaries with people you love.
🤎 Take things one day at a time.
🤎 Not have everything figured out yet.

Sometimes we place expectations on ourselves that we would never place on someone we love.

So today, try offering yourself a little of the same patience and grace you so freely give everyone else.

You’re allowed to be a work in progress. 🍂

🍂 MONDAY | AN OCTOBER CHECK-IN

New week. New month. A good time to check in with the person you spend every single day with — yourself.

Not the automatic “I’m fine” answer.

How are you really doing?

Maybe you’re feeling good and finally finding your footing. Maybe you’re overwhelmed, exhausted, anxious, grieving, or simply trying to make it through a season that feels heavier than you expected.

Whatever your answer is, you don’t have to judge it.

Sometimes the first step toward feeling better isn’t fixing anything. It’s simply acknowledging where you are.

Take a moment today and ask yourself:

🍂 What has been taking up most of my mental space lately?
🍂 What am I carrying that feels especially heavy?
🍂 What do I need more of right now?
🍂 Is there something I’ve been avoiding because I don’t know where to begin?

And if your answer is, “I think I need some help,” that’s okay too.

You don’t have to figure everything out alone. 🤎

As we wrap up our week talking about financial stress, here’s your reminder:

You do not have to solve everything today.

When money feels overwhelming, our brains often jump ten steps ahead. We think about the next bill, the next unexpected expense, next month, six months from now—and suddenly we’re carrying problems that haven’t even happened yet.

Instead, bring yourself back to today.

Take a breath. Focus on what you can control. Break big problems into smaller steps. Talk to someone you trust. And most importantly, remember that your financial circumstances do not determine your worth.

Progress doesn’t have to mean fixing everything at once. Sometimes progress is simply opening the bill you’ve been avoiding. Making the appointment. Asking for help. Creating a plan. Or deciding that today, you’re going to give yourself a little grace.

Take care of yourself this weekend. You’re allowed to rest even when everything on your to-do list isn’t finished. 💚

October 1 marks the beginning of Alabama’s annual property-tax payment period, and for many families, another large expense or financial deadline can bring an added layer of stress.

Bills may have deadlines, but our minds and bodies don’t always understand that something on a calendar isn’t an emergency.

Financial pressure can activate our stress response, leaving us anxious, distracted, irritable, overwhelmed, or feeling like we need to solve everything immediately.

When that happens, slow things down.

Take a few deep breaths. Focus on what you can control today. Break a large task into smaller pieces. Make a list instead of trying to hold everything in your head. And remind yourself that taking care of your mental health is part of taking care of the problem—not avoiding it.

One bill. One phone call. One task. One step at a time.

You don’t have to carry the emotional weight of financial stress alone. 💚

Your bank account can tell you how much money you have.

It cannot tell you how much you are worth.

Financial circumstances can change quickly, and when money becomes stressful, it can be easy to attach our self-worth to what we earn, what we own, what we owe, or what we’re able to provide.

But you are so much more than a number.

Your kindness matters. Your relationships matter. Your health matters. Your purpose matters. The way you love and care for the people around you matters.

If financial stress has been affecting how you see yourself lately, try replacing self-criticism with a little self-compassion.

You can be worried about money and still recognize the good in your life. You can be working toward change and still appreciate where you are today. And you can be struggling without allowing that struggle to define you.

You are enough—even while you’re figuring things out. 💚

Financial anxiety doesn’t always look like sitting down and worrying about money.

Sometimes it looks like avoiding the stack of mail because you’re afraid of what might be inside. It can look like repeatedly checking your bank account, losing sleep over upcoming expenses, putting off financial decisions, becoming more irritable than usual, or feeling completely overwhelmed by even a small unexpected expense.

Avoidance can bring temporary relief, but the worry is often still there underneath it.

If you recognize yourself in some of these behaviors, try approaching yourself with curiosity rather than criticism. You may be dealing with stress—not failing at handling life.

Take one small step. Open one envelope. Make one phone call. Write down one concern. And when the emotional weight feels too heavy to carry alone, it’s okay to reach out for support.

You don’t have to wait until you’re at your breaking point to take care of your mental health. 💚

Money stress is about so much more than the numbers in a bank account.

When finances feel uncertain or expenses start piling up, that stress can follow us into nearly every part of our lives. It may show up as difficulty sleeping, trouble concentrating, irritability, anxiety, tension in our relationships, or simply feeling like we can’t fully relax.

And sometimes, we don’t even realize how much financial stress we’re carrying until we feel completely overwhelmed.

If money has been weighing heavily on you lately, remember that your emotional response is valid. You don’t have to have everything figured out today. Start with what you can control, take things one step at a time, and give yourself permission to ask for support when you need it.

Financial circumstances can change. Your worth does not. 💚

At The Nest Therapy Group, we’re here to provide a safe place to work through the stress, anxiety, and emotions that life can bring.
