Maybe It’s Me…
If your relationship keeps hitting the same wall, it might be time to stop pointing the finger and start looking in the mirror. This blog unpacks the 10 most common communication patterns that quietly sabotage connection—and what to practice instead.
Emotional Safety
Emotional safety is the foundation of connection. When your body feels safe, love becomes possible. This guide offers practical tools to build trust, regulate conflict, and deepen intimacy—from the skin in and the skin out.
Untangling Enmeshment
What if the love you’re holding onto is actually a projection of potential, not the reality of your partner? This piece explores enmeshment, differentiation, and the painful yet liberating journey of reclaiming your self-worth in relationship.
Reconnecting the Love
When love feels steady but the spark is gone, it’s often not a lack of effort, it’s a lack of polarity and emotional safety. In this guide, we explore how couples lose connection through unconscious patterns, and how to restore intimacy by honouring our differences and rebuilding trust.
Loving Language
Nonviolent Communication (NVC), developed by Marshall Rosenberg, offers a way back to harmony. It’s not just about how we speak, it’s about how we listen, how we show up, and how we choose to connect, even when it’s hard.
Loving an Alcoholic
Loving someone with alcohol use disorder (AUD) can be deeply challenging. You may feel torn between wanting to help and feeling exhausted by the cycle of addiction. Understanding what actually works, based on research and best practices, can empower you to support your partner without losing yourself in the process.
Letting Go of Resentment
Resentment creeps in quietly. A little frustration here, a missed expectation there. Left unchecked, it turns into distance, withdrawal, and bitterness.
This guide will help you spot resentment, take responsibility for your part, and move toward repair, so you don’t let unspoken hurt run the show.
A Quick Guide to Repair & Apology
A solid apology isn’t about wiping the slate clean for ourselves, it’s about rebuilding trust and showing the people we care about that they matter.
The Life Meeting
Life gets busy, and without intention, connection can slip. A weekly marriage meeting is a simple but powerful practice to keep your relationship thriving.
