"You date people like they're batteries... and then you throw them out when you run out of juice." ๐จ๐
๐ฎโ
โ
๐ That's legit what a friend said to me about 5 years ago when I told him about my dating patterns... โ
โ
SWIPE ๐ to see what I said back...โ
โ
Anyone else been called out on your dating habits?? ๐ณโ

"Why are they so condescending?"โ
โ
"I can't believe she made that comment."โ
โ
"It bugs me that no one cared enough to reach out."โ
โ
๐ค What do all of these questions have in common?โ
โ
All of them are based on your INTERPRETATION of what's happening. โ
โ
REALITY ๐ Interpretation ๐ Feeling ๐ REALITYโ
โ
REALITY is what ACTUALLY happened. โ
โ
INTERPRETATION is what you THINK happened. It's the story you're telling yourself. โ
โ
So often, we get trapped in our own stories. We get caught up thinking that someone had bad intentions because of the way they said something or thinking we know why they said it. โ
โ
Not only are these interpretations harmful, they're also usually plain wrong... and frankly, unhelpful. โ
โ
What's important is who you WANT to be. โ
โ
What do you stand for? How do you want to respond?โ
โ
My client, Tandeep, realized her relationships were being impacted because she was holding in so much of her own emotions and not expressing them in healthy ways. โ
โ
Part of being able to express your pent-up negativity is focusing on:โ
โ
๐ Challenging your interpretations of realityโ
โ
๐ Stepping into the future you envision, not reacting with your prideโ
โ
In only a few weeks, Tandeep was able to start working on her relationship with her family and find deeper connection... โ
โ
Are you willing to take action? Are you willing to do the deep work so you show up differently and start making deeper connections?โ
โ
Let me know in the comments how you're going to take action ๐ฅ Not tomorrow, not next week or next month... but TODAY ๐ชโ
โ
P.S. If you're curious about what it takes to start making these changes in your life, shoot me a DM! Happy to chat and help you figure out a game plan moving forward ๐โ

As a kid, I pretty much lived at the library. I devoured books. They were my escape, a way to explore the world without leaving the room. ๐โ
โ
Even now, I love getting a quiet moment to read and hold a PHYSICAL BOOK in my hands ๐ ๐ (I have a kindle, but it's not the same!)โ
โ
At my loneliest moments, a good book has kept me company... and reminded me of how much there's left to learn in this world. โ
โ
Not only that, books teach me how to be fully present with myself, realizing I'm alone, but not lonely ๐ฅโ
โ
SO... โ
โ
In honor of all the good reads that have kept me company, I'm inviting you to in this month's challenge! ๐๐๐โ
โ
To participate, all you have to do is make a post about what books you're committed to reading this month. Then, tag a few friends and spread the love โค๏ธ๏ธ (Remember to tag .abundance.coach and use the hashtag so I can see your post ๐) โ
โ
Don't be afraid to get creative! Show what you're learning, where you're reading, why you're reading it... Bring us into your world ๐๐ It doesn't matter whether you're reading something for fun or to pass an exam - a book's a book, and if you're reading, you're learning! ๐โ
โ
๐๐๐ As a bonus, I'll be pulling a random person to win some of the amazing reads that have changed my life (๐ SWIPE to see)! โ
โ
Think of it like... a giant book swap ๐คโ
โ
To kick it off, I've tagged some of my favorite people to get this party started! ๐ (Don't worry, if you're not tagged, you're still invited ๐)โ
โ
Can't wait to see what you all come up with!

"What causes loneliness? If youโd told me a decade ago that at 31 Iโd be single, living alone ๐ข๐ฏ๐ฅ ๐ฉ๐ข๐ฑ๐ฑ๐บ I never wouldโve believed you."โฃโ
โ
โฌ๏ธ THIS IS โ
โ
"I probably wouldโve burst out crying in fear. Fear of being alone or rather, lonely. Fear of being unloved by another. Fear of getting it wrong somewhere along the way to wind up so far away from the expected life plan for a young woman in her 30s ๐ก๐ฐ๐ป๐คฐ๐ปโฃโ
โ
I know that the difference between whether a person is lonely or alone has nothing to do with the people around them and everything to do with their connection to self โจโฃ I know I felt more lonely while partnered in my toxic marriage than I have living alone in the aftermath of my divorce."โ
โ

โ
SO. POWERFUL. โ
โ
What we need to know about loneliness is it's TELLING us something. When you feel lonely, don't just brush over it and move on to the next thing... you're only distracting yourself for a brief moment.โ
โ
Instead, embrace it.โ
โ
Feel it in your body.โ
โ
Get comfortable with it.โ
โ
When you avoid certain emotions, you're subconsciously giving yourself a no-vote-of-confidence... โ You're teaching yourself to think: "I can't handle this. I'm not enough."โ
โ
So start teaching yourself the opposite.โ
โ
Don't run. โ
โ
Face it, head on. Hear what it has to tell you.โ
โ
You're stronger than you know. ๐ช๐ฅโ

I've done everything from rock climbing, pole dancing, snowboarding, krav maga, rugby...
What do all these have in common?
I was terrified when I first started all of them.
I never thought of myself as an athletic person. I didn't grow up playing sports.
But I wanted to push myself. I wanted to grow, so I made myself get to know my body in new and uncomfortable ways.
Being able to do things you've dreamed of means you can step into freedom and not be controlled by fear.
How will you push yourself this week? ๐ฅ
โฌ๏ธ THIS IS
"It was a pure moment of freedom, acceptance, letting go. And how often do we TRULY do that? Often, even if alone, we do things the way we think they should be done, the way others would support, the way weโve been taught, the way that feels known and safe. Honestly, I believe some of us even have this odd feeling weโre being watched, even when alone. Rebel against that feeling and itโs new, scary, confusing, overwhelming, freeing, and the most YOU youโve ever experienced. I promise.
๐ฅ๐ธ
Self Discovery. Itโs what Iโm here to share."

HOW TO BE BOLD IN WHO YOU ARE ๐ SWIPE to see my before & after!โ
โ
I turn 25 today ๐โ
โ
To think that 1-2 years ago I was a completely different person than I am today.โ ..โ
โ
One of the biggest outward indicators of this is my CLOTHES.โ
โ
Two years ago, I was afraid to stand out. โ
โ
I wore clothes that felt "safe". โ
โ
I would get anxiety whenever I tried a different style. โ
โ
I was constantly afraid that others would be judging me for "trying to be too ____" or being "fake".โ
โ
One day, I looked at my wardrobe and asked myself WHY it was filled with free t-shirts, clothes that didn't flatter or fit me, and why everything was grey & black. โ
โ
๐ I realized that I had been afraid. โ
โ
๐ I was too worried about how I would come off to others rather than asking myself what I liked.โ
โ
๐ Truth was, I had NO IDEA what I liked. I hadn't experimented with it. I didn't have FUN with it.โ
โ
When you don't know who you are, it's easy to BLEND IN with everyone around you.โ
โ
What areas are you stuck in your life?
Where is fear controlling your decisions and keeping you from growing?โ
โ
Shoot me a DM! We'll figure it out together.โ

Are you unsure about who you are?โ
โ
I believe that self-awareness should be the FOUNDATION of everything that we do.โ
โ
If you don't KNOW yourself, then you can't change your life.โ
โ
You may ease surface symptoms, but to make lasting change, you need to address your emotions at the core.โ
โ
One of the first steps to learn yourself is to learn more of the VOCABULARY that surrounds emotions.โ
โ
First, embrace the emotions and don't judge them.โ
โ
Then, put a name to it. Be specific. Go beyond "happy" and "sad".โ
โ
If you can identify the specific emotion, you're one step closer to solving the root of the issue. โ
โ
Don't be fooled, though. Anger directed outwards is often anger at ourselves. Resentment due to others is commonly resentment towards ourselves. โ
โ
Name it, but don't blame it.โ
โ
Acknowledge it. Accept it. Then take responsibility for meeting your needs. โ
