• Fear is boring—it recycles the same script, keeping you stuck with the illusion that perfection will keep you safe.
• Perfectionism often hides in plain sight, rebranded as productivity or “being responsible,” but it’s still just fear in disguise.
• The achiever mindset can be a mask for deep wounds, often rooted in rejection, abandonment, or a need to prove worth.
• Neurodiverse thinkers, especially those with ADHD or HSP traits, often struggle with linear systems and benefit from reclaiming their creative, non-linear minds.
• The antidote to burnout isn’t working harder—it’s cultivating kindness, curiosity, and allowing yourself to grow at your own pace.

Key Takeaways:

• Grief is not a linear process with tidy stages—it’s messy, lifelong, and uniquely personal.
• Our culture often fails to acknowledge non-death grief, such as breakups, divorce, and unfulfilled life paths.
• “Grief buckets” offer a helpful framework for grieving: solo time, movement, creativity, nature, and community.
• Rituals and community support (like Jewish traditions such as shiva) are essential but often inaccessible in times of crisis—like during COVID.
• It’s okay to laugh, cry, feel numb, or be joyful while grieving. Emotions don’t have to make sense to be valid.
• Grief support must go beyond therapy—it’s a societal responsibility to normalize and hold space for grief in daily life.

Key Takeaways:

• Healing begins with recognizing that all parts are good, even if not all behaviors are.
• Britt’s ALIGN acronym (Acknowledge, Listen, Investigate, Gratitude, Negotiate) offers a user-friendly model for navigating emotions and impulses.
• Your inner critic isn’t the enemy—it may just need retraining into a high-performance coach.
• Micro “yeses” can help you shift habits without overwhelming your nervous system.
• People-pleasing and impulsive parts often stem from past protective roles—getting curious about their needs is a first step toward freedom.
• Self-parenting is necessary for everyone, but reparenting becomes essential for those healing from trauma or dysfunctional upbringings.
• Shadow parts aren’t always negative—sometimes we disconnect from our gifts, joy, and creativity too.

• Generational trauma often persists because families avoid talking about pain—but healing begins with honesty.
• “Toxic resilience” can look like high-functioning busyness while masking unprocessed trauma.
• Self-care is more than bubble baths—it’s about regulation, awareness, and creating space to feel.
• Breaking generational cycles doesn’t mean being perfect—it means being real.
• Children don’t need protected perfection; they need modeled vulnerability and tools for emotional health.
