If you haven’t checked it out yet,...

To keep their arms in tightly, to bring their shoulders up to their ears and slouch. They try to hide from the danger of being seen. When I brought in a trainer to work with my team, he...

Self Love Atlas March 2024 Hey Reader, Do you ever feel like this? my favorite meme about struggling against your thoughts You’re not alone! Sometimes our self-critical thoughts are so strong that it’s really hard to put up a good fight. Unfortunately, our brains can be skilled arguers, and convincing bullies at times. What can we do about it? If your brain ever says crap like, “Those people don’t actually like you.” or “What makes you think you could do that job?” or “You’ll never be as good...

Hey Reader, When I first learned that “resentment” was a huge relationship killer, I made it my goal learn how to protect against resentment arising in my relationship with my partner. If you’re like me, you have people in your life that you care about deeply. And you want to do what you can to help each other feel safe and cared for. Luckily, the skills it takes to help each other feel cared for are the same ones that protect against resentment. Sometimes people feel resentment for their...

Hey Reader, Do you find it difficult to actually relax in your off time? In this email, I’m sharing what I’ve discovered often causes this feeling, and what we can do about it, so we can finally relax. Before figuring out why I couldn’t relax, my life looked a little like this… When the end of the school/work day came, and it was time to unwind, I couldn’t release the tension in my body. When it was time to have quality time with the people I loved, I’d find my mind buzzing and rehashing the...
