Every relationship has a story—a narrative we tell ourselves about how things are, how they’ve been, and what they’ll always be.

Start small. Start today.

Authenticity or attachment
Why do we say yes when we mean no? Why do we say no when deep down we wish we could say yes?

Healthier benchmarks
WHERE DO YOU ‘THINK’ YOU SHOULD BE? Reflecting on our progress is something we all do, but often without knowing it. Whether we’re aware of it or not, several times a day, we measure ourselves against something or someone—be it our past self, others, or some societal ideal. Whether it’s consciously deciding to check in […]
