Let's normalize that just because you CAN get married and have children does not mean that you need to! Your relationships and romantic connections need to be solid before adding the thought of permanency. Are you guilty of assuming they are The One just because they are "nicer" than your ex? If you are "dating to marry," do you habitually ask people if they can see a lifetime with you with limited information? Do you reveal your traumas immediately to test if they can handle what comes with you, only to hyperfocus on how quickly you can form vulnerability and closeness? Have you been taught to believe in a meaningful wedding or proposal more than understanding the foundation of what helps a healthy relationship work? Are you a product of "making it work for the kids" but might feel guilty because you may not even want kids? If any of these questions apply to you, then today's episode will guide you!

What if I told you that you can "people-please" your inner critic by allowing you to project onto others unresolved feelings about yourself? Did you know that we begin embracing our inner critic in childhood by compartmentalizing our pain and then learning to repeat this pattern as adults to avoid confronting ourselves? What if you could discover the hidden parts of you that often produce guilt and shame and impact many of the decisions that you later regret? This episode is for you if you are frequently unsure of how to embrace parts of you that you resent or might ignore. This episode is also for you if you claim to know precisely who you are without exploring the darker parts of you that you might not know or acknowledge exist.

This episode is for you if you have scars or wounds from childhood that have been hard to release and impact things or people in your daily routine. This episode is also for you if you feel people owe you obedience in romantic relationships, and not getting your way results in emotional tantrums. Are you doing a good job protecting your inner child, letting them know you are a safe space to process and heal? Are you a good example to lead yourself through unexplored healing or compartmentalized hurt? Have you confronted the emotional injuries caused by those you trusted and used that pain to help re-parent you where needed? Let's address these questions together!

Did you know that accountability and responsibility are not the same? One is a personal response to what happens, and the other is about task orientation. Because they are different, yet both equivalent to progress, avoiding or lacking either can cause devastating outcomes and create burnout. This episode is for you if it has been tough getting motivated or maintaining discipline, especially if you misunderstand (or are unsure about) your role in life or why you stack your to-do list. This episode is also for you if you are trying to unlearn how to minimize feeling insulted or offended by constructive criticism or when perfectionism is not achieved.

Receiving what we give is not the goal. This goal is positioning ourselves with people and things that can return what we provide equivalently. Every interaction has an opportunity to have your cup filled. Filling a void that is triggered by unmet needs and trauma is not the same as filling your cup. If you have started tolerating not having that cup filled, this episode is for you! If you continue to engage in romantic relationships, sexual activity, gender norms, parenting, and communication without receiving your efforts returned or even acknowledged, this episode is also for you!

Do you feel safe in emotional connections? Have you been stuck at an age when you experienced the trauma of separation or abandonment? Are you codependent on familiarity? How do you prevent regret from turning into resentment without grieving what you cannot control? This episode is for you if you have ever identified with being codependent or have a loved one who you feel might struggle with codependent behaviors. This episode is also for you if your hyper-independence is a trauma response to people-pleasing.

This episode is for you if you are an overthinker. This episode is also for you if you allow scenarios outside of your control to live rent-free in your mind. The minute that wounds are identified, we have a responsibility to cleanse them and understand how to grieve without consistently compartmentalizing the hurt. If you are often trying to "pray it away" or hoping that time itself will help you forget about a wound that feels uncomfortable to address, this episode found you for a reason.

Have you ever understood love bombing to be a form of anxiety? We most commonly understand this definition in conversations about narcissistic behaviors, yet the more we learn about our own relationship expectations, upbringing, and inability to be emotionally available, we may start to learn that the capacity to love bomb others is within us all. We often miss that grand gestures within days of meeting or a constant need to be in contact are both common gateways to love bombing. This episode is for you if you become anxious at the thought of being selected by others or to receive external validation to feel valued and secure. This episode is also for you if you frequently speed through the "getting to know you" space at the beginning or throughout connecting as a testament to not wasting your time.

This episode is for you if you sense that you have a type but your type rarely works out.

Are you aware that you could be perpetuating your fear of failure or fear of success through Impostor Syndrome? What happens when you do not feel that you are enough and try that much harder to prove it to yourself just to stand in your way and prevent the best result? Are you picking specific people, places, and things that cannot elevate you just to prove the point that you can control external validation to make your fears more manageable that your goals are unattainable? If this sounds like you or someone you know, or you would like to understand how you could be sabotaging and dimming your light, then today's episode is for you!

Men resist temptation too. Men are tired of the games too. Men want to be faithfully married too. Men are great parents too. Men want to cry too. Men can make love and be in love too. However, how many of us have shamed men for their decision to explore vulnerability and safety? How many of us lead with outdated social norms that create unrealistic expectations for men to deeply connect with others without first allowing them to access the tools to do so? Feelings and emotions are two different things and accessible to all genders. Emotions start in the brain and are created from instincts we all have or experience. This episode is for you if you need to unlearn that "women are more emotional" and need to better connect to healthy expressions of feeling connected to men or as a man. Featured today is Rique King; Co-Host of Talk'n Random Ish, first aired on the radio station Real 1100, also known as Love 860, now featured on YouTube! Tune in to the conversation!

Whether on your favorite social platforms, dating someone new, conversing with someone familiar, or during conversations with strangers in your daily life, we have all been exposed to oversharing. How can we not be when it's normalized? Some might call "telling all" a method of release to help others understand they are not alone. Others might say sharing too much personal information could be a reaction to feeling misunderstood, unheard, or avoiding boundaries. This episode is for you to explore the layers of oversharing and how it just might be impacting your life in unknown or unfamiliar ways. Join the conversation with the owner of Wiggles World Network, co-owner of Southern HoZpitality, and DJ Wiggles himself, Trey Searles!

Whether it's increased sadness around the holidays, or a dip in your mood from the colder months that lack sunshine, we have all experienced seasonal depression. We may more commonly understand it as winter or holidays blues, and it is more clinically known as Seasonal Affective Disorder if it becomes a routine occurrence. Not only does it impact mood and performance, it plays on the Vitamin D deficiency many of us experience, as well as the consistent drive to be productive and positive. This episode is for you if you feel guilt for the days you have inactivity, and especially if post-pandemic you are still establishing your new winter or holiday norm.

What is a baseline behavior? We all have a starting point...a baseline of how we respond. It makes up the core of who we are: our true colors. We often love the representative because we often lead this way; we also fall in love with the potential of others and make them emotional projects. As is, we present what we want to be, but not always what we can maintain. We want people to know and understand versions of us we have yet to understand. How can someone love who you don't even know? How can I love you for you without accepting you at your baseline? If any of these questions make sense, this episode is for you!
