We all grow in our own time. Sometimes it feels like everyone else around us has it together, managing the demands of life, their emotions and their relationships. The truth is, we all grow in our own time and it fluctuates depending on our environments.

A few days late, but whose counting...Nevertheless here are some of my recent favourites from the month.

Watching:
In this house we are obssessed. It's great for parents and kids alike but the episode where Bingo wants to sleep on her own makes me cry every time I watch it. Especially when the sun in her dream is her mom. Cue the waterworks.

Company Retreat. It's hard to recreate the ernest joy and care that had in season one (and chaos of the supporting cast). But season two does a great job capturing the vulnerability and "yes and" idea of rolling with the punches.

Group Therapy was an really interesting documentary about the overlap of comedy and mental health. Featuring some of my favourite commedians including and among others.

Podcasts:
is always a podcast I find myself coming back to when I'm looking for new ideas or approaches to common hurdles I or my clients are facing.
on podcast was an easy listen to and gave some good insight into Gladwell. trigger warning as they do discuss capital punishment. Gladwell gets emotional about it and I found myself getting teary along with it.

Books:
Fearless Women- gifted Sheshopslocal.ca KINDNESS event, it's a coffee table book I'm happy to have out and flip through in no particular order.
Novels Something to Live For, The Next Person You Meet in Heaven, Everything I know about love and More A Memoir of an Open Marriage.

Every day, the world demands our attention. Notifications, opinions, endless comparisons. We need space and silence to hear our own inner wisdom rather than everyone else’s noise.

Need help reducing the noise? Pull up a chair.

WORLD AUTISM AWARENESS DAY.
Celebrates Neurodiversity and Reduces Stigma.🌷🌹

Autism is a testament to the natural diversity of the human brain.
At FFireside Psychotherapy we proudly support your neurodiversity, along with your relationships and families.

We recognize the unique challenges, hurdles, and uncertainties you may face as a neurodiverse person in a predominantly neurotypical world. That's why we wholeheartedly champion self-determination, self-advocacy, autonomy, and agency. All of which are key elements in solving problems, setting goals and achieving personal milestones.

We firmly believe that when you can confidently embrace your uniqueness and communicate your differences and preferences, and when families cultivate understanding and acceptance, we can create an environment where everyone can truly thrive.

Signs You’re in the Roommate Stage of Your Relationship

And how to move out of it. Many couples reach a point in their relationship where things feel less like a romantic partnership and more like a shared household. Conversations revolve around groceries, schedules, childcare, and logistics. Affection becomes less frequent. Curiosity about each other’s inner worlds fades. People often call this the “roommate stage.” If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone....
