Lesson Overview

7.17 – When Your Family Doesn’t Accept Who You Are: Family rejection can cut deep because love is supposed to mean safety. When relatives disapprove of your identity, it can feel like losing a home. Remember that their opinions don’t define your truth. Sometimes people need time to understand, and sometimes they never will. Either way, your worth remains the same. Building chosen family—friends, mentors, or community—can fill that space with genuine acceptance. Setting boundaries with relatives isn’t disrespect; it’s self-protection. Healing takes time, but you are not alone. You deserve relationships that see you clearly. Acceptance may come later, but your peace must come now. Keep nurturing the version of you that refuses to disappear for love.
