toxic relationships

Would you be proud to watch yourself back? The wake up call you need…

  I was watching MAFS the other day (Married At First Sight for those not in the know), and the couples are nearing the end of the experiment. The final challenge was for the group of wives to spend the day together, and so did the husbands. Both groups rock up for their separate lunches and are then told they are going to meet the other person they were matched with. 😳 What unfolded was so interesting; at the moment…

Walking on eggshells isn’t love

  If, in your relationship, you feel like you have to monitor your words, your tone, your behaviour, your mood and basically your entire existence to keep your partner happy, this is a mahoosive red flag – it’s not love. 🚩    You stay because you crave connection with them and your nervous system has become used to being happy enough with the bare minimum breadcrumbs they give you.   Because you’ve normalised it so much, it feels familiar and…

Stop surrounding yourself with fckwits

    “You become like the five people you spend the most time with” is one of my fave quotes. 🫶🏻 If you keep surrounding yourself with negative, lazy, toxic, dramatic people who love a good whinge, it’s going to rub off on you too and your life will start to look like theirs. Energy rubs off. Mindsets rub off. Standards rub off; do you really want to lower your standards or raise them? 🤔  So if you spend most…

No, you’re not overthinking: You’re ignoring signals you’ve been taught not to trust

  You’re second guessing your own feelings. 😔   You feel hurt by the way they treat you, and wonder if you’re just overreacting.   You feel uncomfortable with what they’ve said to you, but tell yourself you’re being too sensitive.   You KNOW in your gut that something is off, and has been for ages… but you gaslight yourself and convince yourself otherwise. 💨💡   So you continue to minimise, justify and rationalise their words, their actions, their lack…

You can’t change what you’re still pretending not to see

  Changing any situation that no longer serves you doesn’t start with action… or motivation… or affirmations and vision boards. It starts with AWARENESS. And awareness is the hardest bit – it’s inconvenient as fuck to become aware there’s an issue, because it means you can’t claim ignorance anymore. It means you’re starting to admit what you’re feeling in your body, that you’ve noticed the pattern; and that now you can’t unsee this shit. 🙈  Awareness is your “oh shit”…
