A good summary x

Hormones are chemical messengers that influence mood, energy, stress, and many daily experiences. (1) Dopamine drives motivation and the feeling of reward after achieving something. (2) Serotonin keeps mood steady and supports emotional balance. (3) Oxytocin strengthens trust and bonding during moments of closeness. (4) Endorphins reduce pain and provide relief during laughter or exercise. (5) Cortisol rises during stress and helps the body respond to challenges. (6) Adrenaline increases alertness and prepares the body for quick action during emergencies. (7) Melatonin regulates the sleep cycle and signals the body to rest. (8) Insulin manages blood sugar and helps cells use energy. (9) Testosterone affects strength, drive, and confidence. (10) Estrogen influences mood, memory, and emotional sensitivity. (11) Progesterone creates a calming effect and works with estrogen to support balance.

These hormones shape the way we think, feel, and behave. They guide sleep, appetite, stress levels, motivation, and emotional reactions. When hormones are balanced, the body and mind function more smoothly. When they are out of balance, daily life can feel heavier, less clear, or harder to manage.

Proper hormone regulation helps maintain stable mood, steady energy, healthy sleep, and better stress control. It lowers the chance of emotional swings, chronic stress, or physical problems linked to hormonal imbalance. Supporting hormone balance through healthy habits, medical guidance, and awareness helps protect both mental and physical well-being.

If your hormones influence so much of who you are each day, how might your life change if you paid closer attention to the signals your body is sending?

We have all been raised in a dichotomous world - where something is either good or bad, right or wrong, better or worse, but the truth is, life is often both “this and that” - and if we give ourselves permission to experience the grey, we have the opportunity to soften into those parts of ourselves that hold all of our nuanced feelings, no matter what they may be.

Marriage and children are beautiful milestones which deserve to be celebrated. But there’s more to a meaningful life than the milestones we’re told to celebrate. And some of the most important victories are quiet ones no one sees.

Some wins won’t make an announcement - celebrate them anyway. 🙌💛

💫We reopen the doors to unhealthy people because the ego craves a sense of control. It whispers, “If I can just get the right apology… the perfect explanation… the closure I deserve… maybe the pain will finally make sense.”

But here is the truth—
⭐️People cannot give what they don’t have.
When someone has already shown you their emotional limits, their patterns, and their inability to show up for you, going back won’t change them. It only keeps you stuck in the same painful cycle.

Your ego isn’t really looking for closure…
🌟It’s trying to rewrite an ending that hurt you.
It wants the discomfort to feel justified, neat, resolved.
But healing doesn’t work that way.

Every time you return to someone who consistently wounds you,
💫you hand over your power—your peace, your worth, your emotional energy.
You’re waiting for someone else to provide something that only YOU can give yourself:
clarity, acceptance, and emotional safety.

Here’s the shift I want you to embrace:
🌟Healing begins the moment you reclaim your own energy.
When you stop negotiating with potential and finally accept someone’s reality.
When you choose peace over chaos.

⭐️True closure is INTERNAL.
It comes when you allow the ending to be what it is—
not what you hoped, begged, or prayed it would be.

You don’t need their apology to heal.
You don’t need their validation to feel worthy.
You don’t need their explanation to move forward.
💫The power to close this chapter has been yours all along.

But imagine this…

💫Feeling so grounded in your self-worth that someone’s silence, withdrawal, or criticism no longer shakes your identity.

⭐️Creating healthy boundaries where you understand people’s limitations but decide how much access they have to your emotional world.

🌟Developing radical self-trust—so strong that your choices come from clarity, not fear.

💫Building a beautiful, nourishing relationship with yourself first…
and from that space, attracting a partner who is emotionally available, secure, and capable of deep, consistent love.

If you’re ready to break the pattern, reclaim your power, and begin the REAL work of healing your heart…
💫book a personalized 1:1 session with me.
I’ll walk with you—gently, compassionately, and with proven therapeutic tools—to help you step into the peace and emotional freedom you deserve.
