Stress, guilt, frustration, anxiety and regret are valuable signals that we do not feel safe and supported in certain spaces in our lives. Unfortunately, few of us have been taught how to listen and respond proactively to the life-enhancing messages that are hidden within these discomfiting emotions. When we feel angry, resistant or in pain, we need to look at the circumstances which inspire such a strong reaction and to go directly to the source of the problem. We must then make a commitment to "take back our lives" by installing systems and support structures that will protect and enhance us. At Women's U., we support you in your quest to design a life that truly supports you.
