The negative criticizing voice in your head isn’t your own. It’s the culmination of other’s expectations, societies fads and preferences, and familial or generational disappointments and negative opinions.

Ask yourself this, would you tell an infant even half of the things you say to yourself?

If you answered no then perhaps it’s time to examine your inner landscape with a coach and find your own voice.

Many of my clients are using online dating to meet people. Keep these red flags in mind:
🚩 Their profile is lean on details.
🚩 There is only one profile picture and it's devastatingly gorgeous.
🚩 They want to move faster than you do.
🚩 After a few short interactions they are already using terms of endearment.
🚩 They might tell you a story to evoke deep feelings of sympathy or empathy and then subtly manipulate you for money.
🚩 They are usually unreachable, out of town, or out of country and are anxious to come back and see you despite never having met you.
Consider coaching to help you navigate the online dating world. www.AcceleratedJoyWorks.com

A healthy relationship with self looks at all aspects of life and relationship. That includes the way things are done across a family or generations within a family. For you to have a healthy self relationship that might mean diverging from a familial path, belief system, or way of doing things. It might feel huge and terrifying at first; however, keep putting your self relationship first. It will change the quality of your life.

True self care is doing the hard work of creating boundaries and reinforcing them; creating a deeply emotionally intimate relationship with self, removing people from your life who no longer resonate with who you are becoming.

“Many people suffer from what is sometimes called toxic or chronic guilt, which is closely related to a false and overwhelming sense of responsibility.

This stems from their childhood environment and is carried into their adulthood and adult relationships, be they romantic, work, or others.”

Have you ever stopped to wonder why you’re so attracted to the “bad boy”, the player, or the alpha male? The attraction can be like a moth to a flame; you understand you’ll be hurt but you can’t seem to stop yourself.

This pattern starts really small, often in childhood, when a boy picks on you, and someone tells you it’s because he likes you but can’t express himself with words. This sets you up for choosing, possible abusive men, as well as emotionally unavailable men. It teaches you what you think you deserve. When you begin to date in your teen years the messages you receive form the foundation of who you continue choosing.

Break the cycle and find the relationship of your dreams by building a solid foundation in your relationship with self.

Don’t fall in love with potential and don’t create stories in your head of who you think people are or should be. You’ll be disappointed when they don’t live up to your idea of who you think they should be.

Patterns of behavior can be good, like getting up for Yoga every morning. Some patterns, though, can be excruciating; like being attracted to the wrong type of partner for you.

If you always pick the same type of person over and over this pattern is rooted in your relationship with self. It can come from childhood, from your early dating years, your sexuality map, or even your love map.

Break the pattern with relationship coaching and begin choosing healthier relationship options for you based on a healthier self relationship. It makes a world of difference.

"So it's not gonna be easy. It's going to be really hard; we're gonna have to work at this everyday, but I want to do that because I want you. I want all of you, forever, everyday. You and me... everyday."
