Wave of Light
October 15

Tonight we light a candle in honor of the babies and children that we hold in our hearts instead of our arms.

We pause to reflect on the heavy emptiness we hold.

There is no love more intimate than mothering. There is no pain more intimate than pregnancy and child loss. 🤍

Today we honor, see, and love on those that need a little more space to take up room.

Your body and your history were never two separate stories.

For people living with CPTSD and chronic illness, the medical system can quietly recreate the original injury: power differences, being touched, waiting to be believed.

That isn’t “drama.” It’s an attachment system doing exactly what it learned to do. We can’t wait to watch you become the version you’ve never been able to be… YET.

New on the blog: why this intersection needs specialized, trauma-informed care, and questions to ask your providers. 🔗 in bio

Your kid hearing “no” from you at 6 is practice for respecting “no” from everyone else at 19.

We love our kids, so we rescue them. We negotiate the bedtime, email the teacher, fix the grade, smooth over the consequence. It feels like protection.

But kids learn what “no” means at home first. If “no” is always up for debate, if every boundary bends when they push hard enough, they learn that other people’s limits are negotiable too.

The headlines about the Cornell 7, seven students accused of assaulting a classmate, have a lot of parents asking hard questions. There’s no single cause behind harm like that, and no parent can guarantee who their child becomes. But we can raise kids who’ve had real, everyday practice hearing “no,” sitting with disappointment, and owning their impact on others.

That practice is uncomfortable. For them and for you. Holding a boundary while your child melts down is hard. Watching your teen face a consequence you could make disappear is hard.

You don’t have to figure it out alone.

💬 Therapy can help parents hold boundaries without guilt, help kids build tolerance for disappointment, and give teens space to understand consent, accountability, and how their choices affect others.

Avoidant attachment looks quiet. It’s actually one of the loudest things we see. 🔇

From the outside, it can look like calm. Independence. “I’m fine.” Changing the subject. Needing space right when things get close.

On the inside, it can sound like:
“Don’t need too much.”
“If I lean on them, I’ll be let down.”
“Handle it alone, it’s safer that way.”

Avoidance usually isn’t a lack of feeling. It’s a strategy that once made sense, often learned early, when reaching for connection didn’t feel safe or reliably met. Shutting down became the way to protect yourself. And the body often stays activated even when the face looks calm.

If this is you, or someone you love, there’s nothing wrong with you. That quiet has been working hard to keep you safe. And with the right support, it can learn that closeness doesn’t have to cost you yourself.

📖 We go deeper on what avoidant attachment looks like, where it comes from, and how it shifts in our latest blog post. Link in stories.

🤍 Our clinicians are experts in attachment-focused care for individuals and couples, in Galena and virtually across Ohio. You don’t have to untangle this alone.

If it brings you joy, it’s not a waste of time, money, or effort. 💛

For many of us, joy feels like something we have to earn. Finish the to-do list first. Be productive first. Prove we’ve done enough first. Then maybe we can rest, play, or do the thing that lights us up.

That pattern often has roots in anxious attachment. When we learned early on that love and approval had to be earned, we can carry that into how we treat ourselves, believing our worth is tied to what we produce. Joy starts to feel indulgent, even unsafe.

A secure attachment to self looks different. It sounds like:
🥰I don’t have to earn the good things.
🥰I’m allowed to enjoy my life.
🥰I’m worthy of joy simply because I’m here.
Seeking joy isn’t frivolous. It’s one of the ways we practice being securely attached to ourselves.

A question I often ask my clients: Where can joy find you this week?

Not where can you squeeze it in once everything else is done. Where can you make space for it to find you?

If that question feels hard to answer, you’re not alone, and you don’t have to figure it out by yourself. As attachment experts, we help clients untangle worth from productivity and build a kinder, more secure relationship with themselves. Reach out through the link in bio to connect with our team. 🌿

She’s not uninvited. She’s done being quiet about it.

Every statistic in this reel was preventable. Every name behind these numbers deserved better — better care, better protection, better systems that actually listened.

Rage is the appropriate response to that. The question isn’t whether to feel it. It’s what we do with it.

Nurturing Wellness partners with heart forward clinicians across disciplines that champion for the wellbeing of women, families, and children. We’re not accepting the “status quo” of reckless policy that keeps threatening the lives of the most needed in our communities.

We are inspired to fight for change. Are you? Check out a non profit Jaclyn helped found Living Beyond Motherhood that speaks to mothers needing more. 💜
