There comes a point when the things that once break your heart just start to feel normal.

The hidden bottles.
The lies.
The constant chaos that used to make you cry, now just makes you sigh and carry on.

You’re not broken for this. You’ve just been surviving in an environment that’s taught your body to adapt to pain.

But it’s okay to pause and ask yourself :
🍃 what am I tolerating that? I never thought I would?
🍃 what started to feel normal that actually isn’t?
🍃 and what would it look like to start choosing peace again?

This isn’t about blame.
It’s about remembering that you still have a say in your story, even in the middle of someone else’s addiction.

You deserve safety.
You deserve calm.
You deserve you again

If this hits Home, save it for a gentle reminder
and if you’re ready to start finding your way back to peace, DM me support, you don’t have to do this alone

Take care,
Nicole X

No one really talks about what it feels like to be the one in the middle, the person holding it all together while addiction plays out around You

The peacekeeper.
The emotional anchor.
The one who’s trying to make sure everyone else’s needs are met, the person struggling in addiction and the people who have been hurt by it.

It’s a painful space to live in.
You’re constantly torn, wanting to protect, support and love everyone but feeling unseen and unheard yourself.
You’re trying to make sure no one feels abandoned yet you end up abandoning you

I see you.
You’re not weak for caring deeply.
You’re not broken for wanting peace for everyone.
But you deserve to be cared for too.

Sometimes the most loving thing we can do is finally ask what about me?

Do you resonate with this?

This is one of those moments that me even a year ago I wouldn’t have believed I was capable of.

I was the little girl who couldn’t look people in the eye to say hello because I was so shy.

I was the girl at school that blushed and was a nervous wreck doing an oral presentation, so nervous I couldn’t even sleep the night before.

I was the lady who wouldn’t speak up in work meetings for fear of not being able to get my words out without making a fool of myself.

it wasn’t that long ago I was hiding away in shame, fear of judgement and rejection too scared to use my voice, let alone to be speaking about things that are quite controversial like addiction.

But here we are stepping through the uncomfortable feelings and doing hard things because I’ve done more hard things in the last 12 years with addiction, advocating for myself and my loved ones than I ever thought I could possibly do.

i’ll be honest, I’m not sure if I’m going to watch myself, this is exciting scary and crazy!! Imposter syndrome is peaking but I just hope people that need to hear my words are watching xx

Every year around this time, someone cheerfully ask if you want to go into the cup sweep
And every year I politely say no thanks

It’s not about judging others or taking away their fun, it’s about staying true to what I’ve lived through

When gambling nearly destroyed our family, I promised myself I’d never take part in something that normalise the thing that caused us so much pain

If you’ve ever felt uncomfortable saying no, please remember you don’t know anyone and explanation
NO THANKS is enough

And this goes for anything from drinking, to gambling to participating in anything that you feel uncomfortable doing

This time of year is particularly hard for those of us impacted by gambling so please take care of yourself

You cannot save, fix, rescue someone who doesn’t want to be saved, fixed, rescued HOWEVER you can destroy, abandon, lose & deplete yourself trying to…..

💙No matter how much we want our loved one to admit they have a problem, to get themself some support.
To reduce or stop doing the problem behaviour, we cannot make them.

💙No matter how much we want them to be open & honest with us about what is happening with them…
Or we want them to take steps to free themselves from addictive behaviours, we cannot choose for them…..

➡️We can support, we can be there for them but ultimately whether we like it or not, they get to choose- just like we get to choose how we live our lives.

😞It can be extremely hard to watch our loved one carrying out destructive behaviours. It can bring great fear, anxiety & resentment.

❤️However, you can start to focus on healing you, on understanding addiction & on your well-being. This can help let the need to control go & allow space to support & connect instead.

No matter where you & your loved one are at right now, it is hard, it’s exhausting so please be kind to you.

It’s time to start having your needs met, it’s time for you to start allowing you to be cared for too….

YOU are the person I created my Life Beyond Addiction Program for - a space designed for the brave souls who have a loved one living with addiction.

Finding myself sitting in gratitude for the opportunities that have come my way especially the ones that were least expected

During those dark days of loving my husband through addiction, I had completely lost myself, I had lost my confidence, my joy, I didn’t even know who I was any more.
Healing, rebuilding myself and my relationship to me, has finally got me to this place where I’m willing to say yes to stepping forward rather than shrinking like I did once upon a time.

I am so grateful to have been surrounded by such kind, caring, compassionate and knowledgeable people and not sure where I would’ve ended up without them

A huge thank you to
.wellbeing.lifestyle and countless others x

A huge thank you to all of you that have been following me on this journey, who have engaged and shown up and given me the courage to continue and a huge big thank you to anyone that has stepped into my space and allowed me to connect and share with you, especially during your most vulnerable time, I am truly humbled

Take care,
Nicole x

Being a highly sensitive person can feel like both a gift and a weight.
You feel everything
You understand everyone and sense their pain
You see the reason people behave the way they do shareholder space of understanding and really want others to do the same
And sometimes you forget yourself in the process.

But compassion isn’t about fixing or holding it all, it’s about showing up with love for others and for yourself.

I’m learning that I can be the voice of reason and still be human. I can be strong and still cry.
And that softness doesn’t make me wait, it makes me real.

If this resonates this is your reminder to give yourself the same compassion that you so freely give to others. Xx

Are you a highly sensitive person?

It’s exhausting when your mind never gets a break.

When every day feels like another round of worry, of what ifs and trying to hold it all together.

If this is you, you’re not alone and it doesn’t mean you don’t love them, it just means you’ve been living in survival mode for way too long
