Self-trust isn’t blindly following your gut. It’s learning how to listen inward.

Sometimes something inside you says, uh oh.

Nothing is obviously wrong. You don’t have evidence. Everything might even look good on paper.

And that’s exactly why it’s so easy to explain the feeling away.

To be fair, sometimes our internal alarm systems are hypersensitive because of old experiences. Not every uncomfortable feeling means something is actually wrong or harmful.

That’s why self-trust requires curiosity:
What am I noticing? What might this be telling me? Is there something here that deserves my attention?
Maybe your instincts are picking up on something important. Maybe a protective part of you is scared. Maybe both are true.

You don’t have to let every feeling “drive the bus.” But you don’t have to dismiss it because you can’t prove it either.

That’s part of interrupting the Self-Abandonment Loop; when you notice what you think, feel, want, need, or sense and then override yourself because listening would be uncomfortable or inconvenient.

You don’t need perfect certainty.

You need a relationship with yourself strong enough that when something inside you says, pay attention, you listen.

That’s how you build self-trust.

If you’re questioning your relationship and tired of not knowing what to do, come to Girl Talk.

You don’t need someone else to give you the answer. You need to learn to trust yourself with it.

Let’s reimagine what it means for a woman to live a good life.

One where romantic love is important without becoming the organizing principle of everything.
Where caring about someone doesn’t make you responsible for their happiness or sadness.
Where someone else’s consequences don’t become yours to fix.
Where you don’t need permission to change your mind.

Where your life is filled with joy, love, connection, passion, creativity and purpose.
Where you feel fully known and accepted.
Where you feel understood, connected to the people who matter, and fully engaged in your own life.

Because romantic love can be part of a good life.
It doesn’t have to be the center of one.

That’s what I mean when I talk about becoming the main character of your own story.
And if you’ve spent years organizing your life around everyone else’s comfort, maybe it’s time to ask: What would my life look like if I put myself back at the center of it?

That’s the conversation we’re having inside Girl Talk.
Decenter the relationship. Recenter your life.

You already know you don’t want to lend the money.
You know you don’t have the bandwidth to help.
You know you don’t want your mother/partner/friend weighing in on this decision.
You know you’re tired of solving problems for another capable adult.
You know you don’t want to say yes.

The confusion comes after someone doesn’t like your answer.

Your people pleasing parts go into frantic mode:

Am I being selfish?
Maybe I should help.
Maybe I’m overreacting.
It’s not THAT big of a deal.
I guess I could…

This is what I call The Permission Problem.

You know your limit. You just haven’t completely accepted that you’re allowed to honor it when someone else would prefer that you didn’t.

Boundaries are not about getting everyone to agree that your limit is reasonable.
In fact, when you start identifying and enforcing boundaries, you’re probably going to get some pushback, especially from people who benefited from you not having clear limits.

Knowing your limit is only half the work.
Trusting yourself enough to hold it when someone doesn’t like it is the other half. If you’re ready to establish personal limits, come to Girl Talk. Link in my bio 💫

In the meantime, your Main Character Move: Say one small no this week without writing a closing argument for your defense.

My mom was the most resourceful person I’ve ever known.

She was a young teenage mom and had three children by the age of 23. She knew a lot about being under resourced and over burdened physically, emotionally and financially.

Despite her challenges, she graduated from UNH when I was 13 and went on to become a labor and delivery nurse. She spent her life and career helping others in need, a lot of times in heroic fashion 🙇🏽‍♀️
We lost her to cancer in 2016, and we miss her terribly.

One of the greatest gifts she instilled in me was the belief that everything is figureoutable.
Resourcefulness is believing there is always a next step you can take.

Sometimes it looks like robbing Peter to pay Paul, 😂 but the moral of the story is that you always have a next move.

You’ll be ok, even if you fall.
You are loved, even if you make a mistake.
You can always try again.

Whatever challenges you are facing, you have everything you need to take another step.

You may not know where you’ll live if you leave, how you’ll afford it, who will still be there, whether you’ll regret your decision, or exactly who you’ll become on the other side.

You don’t need all of those answers today.

You just need to trust yourself to take the next step and trust you’ll be resourceful enough to find the next step after that.

Then you’ll figure out the one after that.

And the one after that.

That’s how you make our way through uncertainty. Not with a perfect plan, but with the growing confidence that whatever comes next, you’ll figure it out.

Keep going 🥾 You got this! 💪🏽 If you’re a midlife woman trying to figure out your next steps, and could use some support, schedule a free call. Link my bio 💫

Learn to trust your instincts 💫

“But relationships require compromise and sacrifice...”

Yes. They do. Healthy compromise costs both people something sometimes.

But constantly swallowing your disappointment, avoiding the conversation, tolerating unhealthy behavior, or making yourself smaller so you don’t “bother him,” isn’t healthy compromise.

That’s not peace. That’s settling for bread crumbs of a relationship.

There’s a difference between peacekeeping and peacemaking.

Peacekeeping looks like:

Don’t bring it up.
It’s not worth the fight.
Just let it go.
Maybe I’m asking too much.
I don’t want to ruin the weekend.
I’ll deal with it myself.

Peacemaking is being willing to disrupt the comfort of the relationship in service of showing up as your authentic self, and being clear about what you will and won’t accept in your life.

If you’re tired of doing all the accommodating just to “keep the peace,” come to Girl Talk. Link in my Bio 💫 Learn how boundaries and self-trust can help you reclaim your personal agency and freedom.
