Are you a rescuer or a companion? The difference matters


There are moments in life when the weight of emotional pain becomes almost unbearable. Times when even breathing feels like climbing a mountain. Perhaps you've been there – or maybe you're there right now – where well-meaning advice rings hollow and staying positive seems impossible.

In this week's article, “The Power of Companionship: Finding The Light During Your Darkest Moments,” I share deeply personal insights about what we truly need during our darkest moments. It's not solutions or advice we're yearning for – it's genuine human connection.

Drawing from my own experience and years of heart-centered coaching, I offer practical guidance both for those navigating difficult times and those called to be companions for others in pain. You'll discover:

  • Why being present matters more than trying to fix
  • How to reach out when you're hurting
  • The sacred art of holding space for another's pain
  • The difference between being a rescuer and a companion
