Recently I had the mother of a woman experiencing family violence join my Project Self Worth program, where I educate women about healthy vs unhealthy relationships and show them my step-by-step guide on how to heal from abuse and find healthy love. 
All the other women on my program are in/healing from abusive relationships, but this member isn’t – her daughter is. I’m loving the messages I’m receiving from her with her many light bulb moments, recognising how…
I don’t watch MAFS generally but one of my friends was very insistent this week that I watch what’s unfolding with dickhead (whoops, I mean Adrian) and Awhina, so I set myself up a 9 now account and got stuck into some clips.

How I gave my energy…

Leaving is hard because you’ve lost all confidence in who you are as a person. Abusive people show traits of narcissism and usually have attachment issues from childhood which tend to create a toxic playground and codependency/trauma bonding in…
#reflection I’m so grateful to myself. Grateful I worked so hard at working on building my sense of self worth, self love and self esteem after I let partners who didn’t deserve my love tear it to shreds.

I didn’t/couldn’t trust it at first. After a history of challenging relationships where I was let down…
