According to The National Network to End Domestic Violence, what constitutes a healthy financial relationship varies, but here are some green flags to look for in your relationship when discussing finances.

Trust isn't built with loud, dramatic acts.
It's simply built with quiet, consistent actions over time.

It doesn't matter how many years of life I've been working. I still need this reminder every now and then. Maybe you do, too.

It can really sting when you run into hiccups with a step-kiddo who isn't in a hurry to welcome you into their life with open arms.

But the foundation that you're building is relationship. Take the pressure off yourself to be “the parent.” What they often need most is to feel understood. Take yourself a little less seriously, and remember what it felt like to be a kid — laugh with them, join in on what they love, show up, and have fun together.

Step-relationships need room to breathe. They’re born from loss, but also from opportunity — and that’s where the magic happens. Because sometimes an ending turns into a beautiful new beginning (it may be cliche'… but still true).

If you'd like a boost of help while blending, there are two workshops from now until the end of the year. Visit calliemanea.com for more info. or to register.

Two virtual workshops: two unique situations -
If you're:
- Braving the waters of blending a family and creating something meaningful and lifegiving for you and your new crew, or...
- Working on bringing more trust and safe connection into your new relationship while trying to heal from previous relationship wounds...

These virtual workshops are a way to enlist some extra support and fresh ideas as you make your way through these sometimes murky waters.

Relationships can bring some of the best times, that most of us yearn and hope for - and you deserve help making it as good as it can be.

For info. or to register, visit calliemanea.com. For any couples residing in Texas. And to make it more accessible during this busy time of year - each workshop is $25 a couple.

💛 End-of-Year Virtual Pop-Up Workshops for Couples

As we wrap up the year, I’m hosting two pop-up virtual workshops for couples doing the “brutiful” (sometimes brutal, but definitely beautiful) work of building something new.

Workshop 1: The Ex Files: They Broke It, We’re Healing It
For couples learning to create a secure, fulfilling relationship after one or both partners have experienced betrayal in a previous relationship.

Workshop 2: Blending Families: Creating Success in the Remix
For couples hustling to bring two families together—navigating the ups, downs, and everything in between as you merge into one.

These pop-ups are all about giving a boost of insight, ideas, and energy to those walking through the most complex, hope-filled chapters of love. Especially at this time of year, when it’s easy to feel low on fuel for moving forward. Here’s to all the brave souls putting in overtime and believing in second chances—whatever that looks like for you.

These workshops will be $25 per couple - running 2.5 hours long, virtually - for any couples living in Texas.

Betrayal is not a shared mistake. It is the choice of the one who broke the trust, and the responsibility for repair begins there.

Something I hear often from clients I work with that have been hurt by their spouse or partners behavior/choices is they’re partner says they "just want to move on". But pretending like it didn't happen won't solve it - read on.
