Therapy Taught Me This: The Shift Is Happening
Episode 2
Monday, 23 June, 2025

In this powerful follow-up to his therapy journey, Antonio gets real about what he’s been learning in the chair and how it’s changing him from the inside out. From untangling his self-worth from performance to catching emotional patterns in real time, this episode explores the quiet but radical shifts that come from finally facing yourself. If you’ve ever felt like healing had to be loud, perfect, or immediate, this one’s for you.Key Takeaways • Self-worth isn’t earned through performance.You are worthy, even when you’re not producing, fixing, or helping. • Over-explaining is often a trauma response.Clarity doesn’t come from saying more; it comes from feeling safe enough to say less. • Therapy doesn’t “fix” you…it frees you.Real healing is slow, quiet, and uncomfortable…but it’s real. • Emotions aren’t interruptions…they’re intelligence.Learning to listen instead of suppress leads to self-awareness and peace. • The goal isn’t perfection…it’s presence.Showing up for yourself consistently matters more than doing it perfectly.YouTube page: https://youtube.com/@lifeof_tonyIf this episode hit home, share it with someone who’s on their own healing journey.Leave a review on Apple or Spotify to help others find the show.And if you’re ready to start naming your own patterns, join the conversation on Substack at https://open.substack.com/pub/smallshiftsbigchanges?r=1gf9d2&utm_medium=ios.
