Tuesday Truth: A Message of Hope & Encou...

Rose Skeeters
About this episode

Living with Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) can feel like an emotional rollercoaster—intense emotions, deep fears of abandonment, and struggles with relationships. But healing is possible. In this episode, we’re talking about hope, personal growth, and the journey to developing empathy for healthier relationships.

If you’ve ever felt trapped in patterns of emotional intensity that cause pain for you and your loved ones, this episode is for you. We'll discuss practical steps to build self-awareness, regulate emotions, and develop empathy so you can stop unintentionally hurting the people you love. Most importantly, we'll remind you that you are not broken—you are growing.

💡 Key Topics Covered:✔ Understanding BPD: Why emotions feel so intense & how it affects relationships
Breaking Cycles: Recognizing patterns that cause harm & taking accountability
Empathy & Emotional Regulation: How to pause, reflect, and respond with care
Healing Takes Time: Why setbacks don’t mean failure & how to stay motivated
Self-Love & Worthiness: You deserve love—even as you learn and grow

🔥 Takeaways & Encouragement:

  • You are not beyond change.
  • Your struggles do not define you.
  • Empathy is a skill you can build with time and effort.
  • Taking accountability does not mean self-hatred—it means growth.
  • The people who love you want to see you heal, not just for them, but for you.
