I had one heck of an experience reading this Jeremy. I simply want to say thank you. For such an overlooked topic that seems to get brushed under the rug for many you did a damn fine job. I appreciate it a great deal. Peace be upon you and the family during these upcoming holidays.

Wow, time to move to France I think.

So much of this post resonated with me. As I've been meeting my various parts, I've realized that my Pusher and Responsible parts often team up to help me do well at my job, but sometimes at the cost of their counterparts, Being and Playful. I've had to be deliberate about negotiating time to play and rest. I've found that when I neglect my need to play, my playful part will revolt and throw responsibility to the wind, often sabotaging sleep and making it more difficult to accomplish work. They each need to be respected and recognized for the unique gifts they bring to the table.

Fantastic post, thanks for the reflections and wisdom as always!

Haha it's a wonderful place!

I'm glad it resonated with you, Mike! I totally feel you on the conflict of our various parts. It's so true that too much restriction just ends up in sabotage. It's so inspiring to see you navigate this landscape and grow. Thank you for all the good you do with your family, friends, and community! =)
