Becoming More Yourself

Somewhere along the way, many of us learned who we needed to be.

The responsible one. The strong one.

The caretaker. The people-pleaser.

But healing isn't always about becoming more.

Sometimes it's about becoming more you.

Fun Fact Sunday 🐦💜

Somewhere along the way, many of us learned that asking for help meant we weren't doing enough.
So we became the helper.
The fixer.
The one everyone else could rely on.
And while there's nothing wrong with being capable, constantly carrying everything alone can become exhausting.
Just because you can carry it doesn't mean you should have to.
Support isn't weakness.
It's part of being human.

Fun Fact Friday ⛸️💜
Most people know me as a therapist.
Fewer know that as a teenager, I loved ice skating.
As a double amputee, I spent much of my childhood learning—and relearning—how to walk after multiple surgeries. What I didn't expect was to eventually find myself gliding across an ice rink.
Looking back, skating wasn't just about learning a sport.
It taught me resilience.
It taught me adaptation.
It taught me that the path forward doesn't always look the way we imagined—and that's okay.
One of the biggest lessons I've carried into adulthood and my work as a therapist is this:
You don't have to have everything figured out to keep moving forward.
Sometimes growth happens one step—or one skate—at a time.
⛸️ I didn't just learn to walk.
💜 I learned to fly.

Rest isn’t supposed to be a reward for running yourself into the ground.
Somewhere along the way, many of us learned that rest had to be earned. Stay busy. Keep going. Do more. Then maybe you can take a break.
The problem? Your nervous system doesn’t work that way.
In my newsletter, Rest Was Never a Reward, I explore:
✨ Why rest can feel undeserved
✨ How childhood messages shape our relationship with rest
✨ Why slowing down can feel uncomfortable
✨ The role of regulation and repair in learning to rest
Sometimes the problem isn’t that you don’t know how to rest—it’s that you learned rest was something you had to earn.

🌿 A little more about your therapist Lilyan Fowler...
Most people know me as a counselor. Some know me as a gardener, coffee enthusiast, and plant lover. Fewer know that I'm also a double amputee.
Life doesn't always go according to plan. I've faced challenges I never expected, and while I wouldn't have chosen every part of my journey, those experiences have taught me resilience, adaptability, and the importance of finding joy along the way.
One thing I've learned is that overcoming adversity isn't about being fearless or positive all the time. It's about continuing to grow, even when life looks different than you imagined.
For me, that growth often happens in the garden—watching tiny seeds become something beautiful reminds me that progress takes time.
What's something life has taught you through a difficult season? 💜

One thing about me as a therapist? 🌿
I genuinely love gardening.

There’s something healing about slowing down long enough to care for something, watch it grow, and eventually enjoy the harvest. It reminds me that growth takes time—and that rest, sunlight, water, and patience all matter too.

Self-care doesn’t always have to be big or complicated. Sometimes it looks like dirt under your fingernails and a quiet moment outside.

What’s something that helps you recharge lately? 💜

New article published ✨

You’re resting…
so why do you still feel exhausted?

In this article, I explore why rest doesn’t always feel restorative, how nervous system patterns contribute to burnout, and why slowing down can sometimes feel uncomfortable instead of calming.

We often assume exhaustion means we simply need more rest—but for many people, it’s more complicated than that.

but it’s not actually helping.
