"Relationships are hard enough without turning every disagreement into a therapy session.

These days, it seems like every argument comes with a side of psychobabble—whether it’s pulled from a psych 101 textbook, self-growth podcast, online forum, or “viral” therapy video. Suddenly, normal relationship hiccups are diagnosed as full-blown disorders, and the result? We’re writing people off or cutting them out of our lives and calling it .

Here’s the truth: No one is perfect. We’re complex beings with pasts and emotional baggage, and sometimes communicating effectively with other humans is hard. It doesn’t mean everyone’s toxic or a narcissist or bipolar or gaslighting you.

In They’re Not Gaslighting You, expert couples therapist and clinical psychologist Dr. Isabelle Morley sheds light on all the messy, frustrating, and sometimes downright harmful ways “therapy speak” has taken over our relationships. She’ll explain why throwing around clinical terms and armchair diagnoses robs us of the intimacy, empathy, and growth that make relationships worth having in the first place.

Through warmth, wit, and practical advice, Dr. Morley will help you ditch the labels and focus on what really matters: being present, curious, and compassionate, even (especially) when things get hard. After all, your partner, your friends, your family—they’re not case studies. They’re people.

So, if you’re ready to stop pathologizing your loved ones and start actually connecting with them, They’re Not Gaslighting You is the book you didn’t know you needed."

Change can be tough. But the cool thing is, thanks to neuroplasticity, your brain can totally adapt and grow.

With a little consistent effort, a meaningful reason, and the right mindset, you can rewire your thoughts and create new habits that support positive change.

Your brain is more flexible than you might think!

When others make you the issue because they're avoidant and won't let themselves be vulnerable, it's not about you - it's about them and their inability to sit with their own feelings. Don't be responsible for what's not your stuff.

It’s the way you move, embrace, accept, and choose to live in each momentary emotion, feeling and sensation as bravely as you can. 🩵🧡💚

A friend passed this along and I couldn’t agree more. If this reminds you of someone in your life maybe it’s time to take a step back and create some boundaries.

What do you think? Let me know in the comments!

Welcome to 2025! I'm grateful and excited you're here :)

After a week off to step back, take it slow, and tune into my body I've personally been reconnecting with my love of movement, essential oils, nature, and different lifestyle practices.

From having a shot of Apple Cider Vinegar in the morning (no gallbladder here!) to laying on my acupressure mat, and using a new Aussie sauna blanket that I bought during the Black Friday sales...

I've been making time for a little bit of intentional self-care every day.

This year I'll personally be focusing on sleep, simplicity, creativity and community. What have you chosen to focus on? I'd love to know....

If you haven't yet put some time aside to clarify your needs and values for the year ahead - or even just this month - I encourage you to DOWNLOAD my complimentary "2025 Reflect & Refocus Playbook" editable PDF and start taking small steps toward a more conscious life: https://mindbodyfoodinstitute.com/reflect-refocus-pdf-gift/
