🎶 What Your Favorite Love Song Says About You

Ever noticed how certain love songs just hit?

The ones you replay. The ones that feel personal. The ones that sound like your story.

In this piece, Chelsea Reed-Lahey, M.A. explores what your favorite love song might reveal about your attachment patterns, emotional needs, and nervous system wiring.

Because the music we gravitate toward isn’t random — it often reflects:
• how we experience closeness
• what we long for in connection
• what feels safe (or intense) to us

This isn’t about labeling yourself.
It’s about understanding yourself a little more clearly.

😴 Why You’re Tired (Even When Nothing “Big” Is Wrong)

If you’re exhausted but can’t explain why—no crisis, no major change, nothing obviously “wrong”—you’re not imagining it.

In this article, Chelsea Reed-Lahey, M.A. explores how chronic stress, nervous system load, and constant background vigilance can leave you depleted even when life looks fine on the outside.

This isn’t laziness.
It isn’t a lack of motivation.
And it’s not something you can fix by just pushing harder.

It’s your nervous system asking for recovery.
