KūRated Care Collaborative

KūRated Care Collaborative We believe an educated woman is armed and dangerous (in all the right ways). We are plain speaking h Kūrator's Creed:

The will to act is enough. Breath deeply.

Expect the need to do things differently if the status quo isn’t working for you. Understand that KūRATED living looks different for everyone. Recognize we all need something a little different in order to be healthy. Sleep isn’t one of them. Sleep - dream - wake up - move mountains. Learn to say Hell Yes to the things that make you rise up, shake you, leave you awe struck and life drunk and then share them. The No’s will follow naturally. Be strategic - life’s an experiment but remain open to serendipity; the best things in life are rarely planned. Ensure your gallery tells your story. If you don’t like what you’re seeing, start over. Do it now. Breath in life’s perfect moments. Your cellphone may be able to capture them but it sure as hell won’t remember you when you’re gone. Hug people hello. Go outside. Get dirty. When the world disappoints you, immerse yourself in nature. Grow something. Grow someone don’t shrink them based on your own insecurities. See the pain, feel it, thank it but don’t subscribe to the struggle. Allow yourself to be moved. Listen to your inner child. Play daily. See potential and abundance where others choose to see dis-ease and hardship. Be a breathless optimist. Invest in you first - the village will follow. Serve others but don’t live life through them. Give credit. Accept credit. Be a leader in parts of your life, follow in others. Revisit the rules you set for yourself often. Press pause. Listen to your bodies wisdom. Share good meals with good friends. The connections you build will keep you feeling full long after the meal is over. Expect your people to be fierce with their time, but generous with their heart. Do the same. Move your body; feed your brain. Respect the science. Trust century old knowledge. Failure is only failure when it doesn’t move you forward. Laugh at yourself, if you can’t laugh at yourself, someone else will gladly do it for you. Own the possibility and responsibility that lies in consciously choosing your behaviour from this moment forward. Give yourself permission to thrive. KūRATED living isn’t about a pristine house full with the smell of gluten free, dairy free, sugar free, home baked bread, white pants and puppies that don’t p*e in the middle of the kitchen floor. It’s not a place at which you arrive. It’s living life - awake. It’s an acknowledgement that progress trumps perfection and community is king. So long as each of us is making the moment to moment choices necessary to move us in the direction of health and happiness, we’re leaving our families, our communities and the world a better place than we found it. Your visions and values, food and friendships, sweat and tears give breath to meaning and magic, intention and impact. Choose consciously. Get KūRATED.

...Guilty.

No, no. We don't mean he's a narcissist - we mean we know so many of your are wondering and even more than that we've noticed how often this label is being thrown around and thought we'd tackle the topic here. Misusing "Narcissism" 😬

We've all been there - calling someone a narcissist because they seem self-absorbed or challenge us in ways we can't understand. But let's be real, narcissistic personality disorder is a serious mental health condition that affects how people relate to others.

What's the Difference? 🤔
Narcissistic personality disorder is a pattern of behaviour characterized by:
- Grandiosity (an inflated sense of self-importance)
Lack of empathy (struggling to understand others' feelings)
- Need for admiration (constant need for praise and attention)

It's not just about being self-absorbed or confident; it's a complex set of traits that can hurt relationships and mental health.

Why Misusing the Term Matters 🤝 Mislabeling someone as a narcissist can:
- Stigmatize mental health conditions
- Oversimplify complex personality dynamics
- Distract from other real issues (like emotional abuse or manipulation)

Therapy Can Help 🤝
If you're struggling to understand someone's behaviour or your own feelings, therapy can provide clarity.

A therapist can help you: Understand personality dynamics, identify patterns in relationships, develop empathy and communication skills

Not Sure What's Going On? 🤔
Don't try to diagnose yourself or others. Seek support from a therapist who can help you navigate complex relationships and emotions.

Take the Next Step 🚀
If you're curious about personality dynamics or struggling with relationships, book an appointment with a therapist. Let's get you the support you need💕.

Boundary or Demand? 🤔 Don't Get It Twisted
You're probably thinking, "I set boundaries, I'm good!" But hold up, are you actually setting boundaries or making demands? 🙅 The line between the two can get blurry, but understanding the difference is key to healthy relationships.

Demands vs. Boundaries: The Psychology Behind It 🧠
Demands are about control: "You need to do this, or else!" They're often rooted in anxiety, fear, or anger. When you make demands, you're trying to change the other person or situation.
Boundaries, on the other hand, are about self-care: "I'm not comfortable with this, so I'll do this instead." They're rooted in self-awareness and a desire to protect your own emotional space.

Spot the Difference:
Demands are often aggressive or passive-aggressive ( "You always..." or "You never...")
Boundaries are assertive and respectful ("I feel uncomfortable when...")

Why It Matters 🤝
Mistaking demands for boundaries can lead to conflict, resentment, and burnout. By recognizing the difference, you can communicate your needs more effectively and build healthier relationships.

Not Sure What's What? 🤔
That's where therapy comes in. A therapist can help you:
- Identify your motivations (are you trying to control or protect?)
- Develop self-awareness and emotional intelligence
- Communicate your needs effectively

Take the Next Step 🚀
If you're struggling to navigate boundaries and demands, don't go it alone. Seek support from a therapist who can help you clarify your needs and build stronger relationships.

Boundary Babe, It's Time to Get Real 🚀

Let's get straight, setting boundaries in relationships can be tough, but tbh, it's game-changing. You're not a doormat, and it's time to stop letting people walk all over you 😤. Healthy boundaries are the key to keeping your relationships healthy, happy, and hot 🔥.

So, what are boundaries, really? They're the limits you set to protect your time, energy, and emotions. Think of them like a fence around your garden – they keep the good stuff in and the bad stuff out 🌳.

Signs You're Lacking Boundaries:
- You're people-pleasing like it's a Olympic sport 🏋️‍♀️
- You feel drained, resentful, or anxious in your relationships 😩
- You're constantly saying "yes" when you mean "no" 🙅‍♀️
- You're letting others dictate your emotions and mood 😒

Therapy Can Help 🤝
Setting boundaries isn't always easy, especially if you're used to putting others first. A therapist can support you in:
- Identifying your limits and needs
- Communicating assertively (without being aggressive or passive)
- Building confidence in your relationships
- Developing a self-care routine that nourishes your mind, body, and soul

Ready to Set Your Boundaries? 💪
1. Get clear on your values and priorities
2. Identify your non-negotiables
3. Practice saying "no" (it's okay to start small!)
4. Communicate your boundaries clearly and respectfully
5. Prioritize self-care (you're worth it!)

Take the First Step 🚀
If you're ready to build healthier relationships and prioritize your own needs, therapy can be a game-changer. Let's work together to create a more balanced, loving, and respectful you 💕.
Book your appointment today and start setting those boundaries like a boss! 💼
