I was just reading an article about the right time to leave a marriage. There are so many ups and downs in any relationship and I know it’s tough. Fear and anxiety can eat away at you. Like I always say “honor your inner voice and allow it to give you” even when it is scary.

Finding your truth within ourselves

I don’t know about you but life is such a struggle at times. Relationships are work no matter what. My hope is that if you’re single at the moment just hold tight and things will of course change. We all want to be loved and cared for regardless. Love is so important. Do you think too much or over analyze everything?

We need to follow our heart and the answers will be provided. This may not happen right away but we need to stop making decisions based on what our thoughts are. When you think too much your thoughts get all out of control. This is a critical time when we should just sit with a feeling and not act. Be still and listen to what your heart tells you.

Breaking Up Via Text

I could see if you’re about 16 years old or younger breaking up by sending a text. If you’re a grown adult this is funny but very sad. The younger generation is used to talking via text and video. But, if you are thirty or older texting that you want out of your relationship you need to do some soul searching. And, see a therapist or get a coach to help you learn how to confront someone on a sensitive matter. You need to have respect and empathy for the other person. Has this ever happened to you?

Dating Questions and Answers

Question:
I’ve been dating for about five years and I keep meeting the same men—nice guys but not at all my type. I’ve been using the Internet most recently and I usually respond if a guy writes me who sounds okay but not “just right,” thinking I may never find a guy who matches my criteria. So what am I doing wrong?

Why do we want to just jump into a relationship so fast?

Is it all about the Law of Attraction or are we searching for that feeling that makes you loved and wanted. People think that if you are a Dating/ Relationship Coach or a Therapist that you can’t make the same mistakes when it comes to love as your clients.

I personally have not always made the right choices when it comes to love. But, I always stay in the moment and in reality which makes me responsible for my actions. My intuition is very strong and I go with my gut. I can feel the good and bad energy from people. That is one reason I became a coach and use my strength to help other know the inner working of their heart and soul. Once we have this figured out we can move on to putting a plan into action that works for you. If you take a leap of faith and know in your heart he/she is the one do your best to slow it down so you both can breathe and process what is really going on.

Why does love hurt?

Love should be easy right? Shouldn’t it just flow like the bumpy road of life? There is no way to know if today will be the day your heart gets broken.
Love comes and goes just like each day. This is why we need to live in the present and let go of exceptions. In my book Dating Ain’t For Sissies, Baby I talk about what single people need to do to start making changes to their approach when it comes to dating. Fear or feeling desperate clouds the reality of life. Each and everyone you come into contact with are in your life for a reason. It doesn’t matter if it’s good or bad. Take the time to learn the lesson of this person and why they play a role. There are so many people out there that just want to blame someone else instead of themselves for their baggage. This is just one example to think about. Stay positive and strong and nothing or no one can get in your way to inner peace and happiness.

Enjoy each day because we may not be here tomorrow!

I went into the emergency room and ended up having emergency surgery for pain due to my appendix. A couple hours after I was discharged I was having trouble breathing. I ended up back in the hospital and had to go on the ventilator for 4 days. When I woke up with a mask on I freaked out because I had no idea what happened.
It wasn’t until I got home that I realized I could have died. Cancer was a breeze compared to not being able to breathe in some ways. Once again I am taking steps to make some changes in my life. So make the best of each day and enjoy the simple things as much as the big stuff in your life. Put fear behind you and just go for your goals and dreams. And, tell your loved ones how much you love because

Why do we hurt the ones we love?

I see two sides to this question. My first thought of course is we take out our frustrations on the one person we are closest to. I believe this is because the other person doesn’t have an open heart and refuses to look at the problem and just turn their attention and angry onto us. What I have learned this week (which I already knew) is never take on someone else’s issues. Even if the situation is huge!

Let’s say your partner gets drunk and wants to pick a fight. Don’t engage in the conversation and just remove yourself from the room. Who really believes it when someone says “you made me drink because I just can’t deal with you”. I have learned the hard way to stay grounded and believe in my heart and soul this has nothing to do with me. This is called emotional abuse no matter what the situation is. But, if you become angry and defensive just count to ten and just breathe. Who the hell doesn’t want to defend themselves so dig deep because your power is within.

People can be so mean when their life sucks and I’m not just talking about partners. This happens with friends, family, Supervisors and anyone else.
