Start with the free Reclamation Ritual: https://withme.so/Groundedwithgenevie... Why do I suddenly get so irritated by things I used to let go? If you’ve noticed more irritation as you heal from people pleasing, you’re not turning into someone you won’t like. In this Grounded Conversation, I explain why irritation shows up as you start to feel again, what it’s trying to tell you, and how to treat yourself with kindness while you change. This week’s question: “Why do I suddenly get so irritated by things I used to let go? I don’t recognize myself.” If you used to be the calm one, the easy one, the one who kept the peace, and now small things set you off, this is for you. Nothing is wrong with you. The irritation isn’t new. You can finally feel it. In this video: • The difference between letting go and swallowing your feelings • Four ways irritation shows up: big reactions to small things, no longer smoothing things over, feeling annoyed with people you love, and anger at your old self • Why irritation is a signal, not a verdict • Why it’s showing up now, and what the backlog has to do with it • The overcorrection swing, and the one-sentence repair when it comes out too big • A guided journaling session for how to treat yourself while you change 📺 Watch next: You’re Addicted To Your Survival Strategies:    • You're Addicted To Your Survival Strategies   💛 I’d love to hear from you: what’s something that used to be easy to let go that you can’t anymore?
