Actionable Steps:

1. Name It.
   • What’s the thing you run to when life feels heavy? Work? Perfection? Your phone? Write it down. Awareness breaks shame.
2. Notice It.
   • Pay attention this week to when you feel the urge to escape into it. What triggered it? What were you avoiding?
3. Nudge Toward Hope.
   • In those moments, make one different choice—a walk, a call to a friend, a prayer, journaling. Tiny nudges create big shifts.
