💙 One Brave Thing 💙 What if one brave thing 💙 One Brave Thing 💙 What if one brave thing this coming week was simply learning? Creating change doesn’t always begin with a big moment. Sometimes it starts quietly, reading an article, watching a video, reflecting on a new perspective, or taking time to better understand how to support yourself and others. If you’ve been wanting to engage but aren’t sure where to begin, Brave Step’s Changemaker resources offer ways to learn, grow and take action from the comfort of home and at a pace that works for you. Whether you’re a survivor, loved one, advocate or someone who wants to help create a safer and more supportive community, there’s a place to start. Visit www.BraveStep.org/Changemaker-test to You don’t have to do everything today. Just one brave thing. #OneBraveThing #BraveStep #Changemaker #EducationIsPrevention #CommunityImpact #LearningForChange
This month, we celebrate and thank Jeannie Owens, This month, we celebrate and thank Jeannie Owens, LCSW, as she retires from private practice and concludes her service on Brave Step's Advisory Board. For decades, Jeannie has dedicated her career to supporting survivors and advancing trauma-informed care. Through her leadership, compassion, and commitment to recovery, she has helped strengthen countless lives and our community as a whole. When asked how she feels about this transition, one word came to mind: *humbled.* "I have been privileged to have served and supported survivors as they make the choice to move forward in recovery." Jeannie, thank you for your wisdom, your service, and your unwavering belief in the resilience of survivors. We are honored to have been part of your journey and grateful for the impact you have made. Please join us in celebrating and thanking Jeannie for her extraordinary contributions. #ThankYouJeannie #LeadershipIsCompassion #BraveStep
💙 Supporting Yourself Matters 💙 Supporting 💙 Supporting Yourself Matters 💙 Supporting others starts with supporting yourself. Many of us are taught to keep going, say yes, and put everyone else first. But caring for yourself isn’t selfish. It’s part of sustaining healthy relationships and showing up as your best self. This week, consider: ✨ Setting a boundary that protects your energy ✨ Giving yourself permission to rest ✨ Noticing and naming what you’re feeling Self-support isn’t about doing less for others. It’s about creating enough space to care for yourself, too. Because your needs matter. Because your wellbeing matters. #SupportYourself #EducationIsPrevention #BraveStep #EmotionalWellbeing #HealthyBoundaries #SelfCare
