How are we here?!

Ok ignore the fact that I was saying the wrong statistics but it’s doesn’t matter.

And excuse my peri menopausal tired brain that isn’t communicating as effectively as normal, but you get my drift.!

How do we tackle this issue because this is getting beyond horrendous now, remember this I just the men that found the website, add on top of that other DA statistics and it’s a scary picture!What are your thoughts On how we deal with this? 👇🏽

Not my normal content but I need to be real with where I’m at and so others don’t feel so alone in it, to help others know what’s happening, when or if it comes. You’re experience maybe different as we’re all different, but at least you’ll know you’re not alone if you experience any of it.

Sure, when it matters (clients, workshops, podcasts, stage, panels, cameras) my brain fires up - I can deliver when it really matters! But the bits in between …… damn they are hard!!

And it’s like my ability to construct sentences with simple words has taken leave 😂.

I could write an essay with all the ways it’s affected my brain, body, emotions etc but I’ll save that lol.

Self compassion and grace is needed in abundance. But it’s not all doom and gloom, there are some really incredible bits that come from this transitional time, and I’m sure I’ll enjoy them more when this rough ride has calmed 😂.

But if you know you need to do some healing on the relationship with self, now is the time because it will be like your life jacket 😂❤️.

Big love to anyone else walking through it 🙏🏽

I used to think there was something deeply wrong with me.

Like my inability to regulate myself in relationships meant I was broken.
Too emotional. Too reactive. Too much.

And yes… emotional regulation is something I’ve had to learn.

But let’s be honest.

It’s hard to stay calm
in something that doesn’t feel safe.

Hot and cold.
Mixed signals.
Words and actions not matching.
Not knowing where you stand.

That doesn’t create peace…
it creates anxiety.

So of course I overthought.
Of course I needed reassurance.
Of course I reacted sometimes.

Not because I was the problem…
but because my nervous system was constantly on alert.

What I’ve realised since is this:

Outside of those environments,
I’m actually pretty grounded.
I communicate well.
I regulate well.

I just don’t function well in inconsistency.
And neither does anyone.

Sometimes it’s not that you’re a mess.
It’s that what you’re in… is.

And when you remove yourself from that,
everything about you starts to feel different.

Save this if you need the reminder in the future.

Drop a 🙋🏻‍♀️ if you relate to this.

What do you think about the documentary ?

Obviously there’s so many complexities to why this is becoming such an issue and why these men are the way they are, I couldn’t cover all in one video as that would need to be a really long video 😂, but these are two of the key points I think play a part in their simplest form!

I think that we need to play our part in bringing about the change we want to see, how about you?

I’d love to know your thoughts 👇🏽
