I was raised as guy, not a daddy princess. I was dreaming about having long hair, with ribbons in them - like all other girls in my daycare. But I had an ugly short hair, because it was “more convincing” as well as not being emotional or “needy” and a lot of other attributes of being a woman.
One of the steps working with betrayal trauma is accepting your genitalia (subconscious works in a very paradox ways). During one of the session I saw my genitalia as a frog and I said that we need to transform them into something different immediately. That was the moment when I realized how much my mind was f up and how much I don’t accept myself and feel ugly.
And then the transformation has began. It turns out I don’t need to transform, upgrade, making better anything. But just accept the beauty. The frog beauty 😁🐸❤️
