Self-compassion is the quiet strength that helps rebuild what was once broken. 🩵
After abuse, it becomes the bridge between pain and peace, the gentle reminder that worth never disappeared; it was only buried under survival. Through understanding and care, confidence begins to return, and the inner voice grows kinder. 🌈

Your worth isn’t up for debate.
Not with your ex.
Not with the people who dismissed you.
Not with the ones who twisted your story.
Not even with the voice inside your own head that learned to question itself just to survive.
If you’ve spent years being told you’re “too much,” “too emotional,” “too sensitive,” “imagining things”…
Of course your nervous system learned to second-guess every feeling and every instinct.
But here’s the truth you might still be learning how to hold:
✨ Your worth was never something they got to decide.
✨ Your story didn’t become untrue just because they refused to listen.
✨ And healing doesn’t require their validation — only your permission.
If you’re tired of carrying this alone… if you’re ready to feel grounded again, safe again, you again — this is exactly what we do inside The Nurturing Coach.
You don’t have to figure this out by yourself.
💛 Therapy is a space where you get to be believed, supported, and rebuilt without fear.
If you’re ready for that kind of holding, you can book a session here:

You deserve peace.
And you deserve someone who sees your worth — without debate.

You are not powerless. You are getting ready: for yourself and for your child. 💫
Every note you take, every message you save, every pause before you respond is part of your strategy. It may not seem loud, but it’s quiet strength in action, control, clarity and resilience guiding each step.
Your preparation is your protection. Your calm is your control. And your voice, steady and strategic, is how truth finally finds its way through the noise. 🕊️

Every parent expects some tension during custody exchanges after divorce.
But when a simple hello can trigger a tirade, when every interaction feels like defusing a bomb, when your children witness hostile behaviour week after week - you're likely dealing with something beyond normal divorce stress.
The most frustrating part isn't just the behaviour itself - it's the constant uncertainty about how to respond.
React too strongly, and you might escalate the situation or give them ammunition for court.
Stay too passive, and you risk enabling behaviour that harms your children.
Without understanding what you're dealing with, every exchange becomes a high-stakes gamble.
Our High Conflict Personality Test helps you cut through this uncertainty.
This carefully designed assessment looks at the specific patterns you're experiencing and helps you understand whether these behaviours indicate a high-conflict personality.
You'll discover why traditional communication approaches often fail in these situations and learn what strategies actually work for your specific circumstances.
As a bonus, you'll receive our comprehensive guide "5 Steps to Handle High-Conflict Exes in Court" for free.
This invaluable resource provides practical strategies for managing difficult exchanges, protecting yourself legally, and maintaining your composure in triggering situations. You'll learn how to create a safety plan for exchanges, establish effective boundaries, and document problematic behaviours in a way that matters to the courts.
Don't let another exchange leave you feeling helpless and anxious.
Understanding what you're dealing with gives you the power to change these dynamics.
Take the quiz now and gain the knowledge you need to handle custody exchanges with confidence and composure.
Because both you and your children deserve peaceful transitions.

The CARA Cycle: Why You Can’t Seem to Fix the Relationship
If you feel like your relationship with a loved one (especially a parent) is a continuous loop of great highs and devastating lows, you might be experiencing the Commitment-Aggression-Reconciliation-Abandonment (CARA) Cycle used by narcissists.
This pattern is not random; it's a sophisticated method of control that keeps the victim emotionally invested and compliant:
Commitment: They establish a deep emotional connection to ensure a reliable "supply."
Aggression: They lash out when their ego is threatened, forcing you to seek their approval.
Reconciliation: They offer a shallow fix, restarting the hope and reinforcing the bond.
Abandonment: They create distance, leaving you anxious and ready to pursue them again.

Healing begins when you can name the pattern. If this resonates with your experience, know that you are not alone. Please share this post to help others identify this destructive pattern.
It’s where words flow without fear, where trust slowly returns, and where support feels calm and consistent. In that quiet space, growth begins to feel possible again. 💛
