Let's Get Real About Codependency.

We tackled this head-on in last night's .

🦄 Myth: Codependency is just two people leaning on each other.

💯 Truth:It's more like one person trying to be the mechanic for someone else's engine—while their own car is on blocks.

You see it in patterns like:
🔧 Always feeling not good enough
🔧 Taking care of everyone but yourself
🔧 Saying "yes" when you want to say "no"
🔧 Trying to fix people who don't want fixing

It's not about being weak—it's about caring so much about others that you forget to care for yourself.

Sound familiar? We'd love to hear your take.

They call it the "Sunday Scaries"...That dread about Monday morning. 😔

But what if we called it something else?
"Sunday Sanctuary?"

🕝 A few hours that belong to you. Not the boss. Not the job. Not the to-do list.

This ain't about being lazy. 🦥
It's about guarding your peace like it's your last tank of fuel.

It's about remembering you're a human being, not a human doing schtuff.

🚨 Today, claim your sanctuary. ✌🏻
Even if it's just 15 minutes of quiet before the sun goes down.

The work will still be there tomorrow.
But today... today is yours.

How will you claim it? [Comment Below with ]

👉🏻 Saturday ain't about being productive.
💯 It's about pressing the damn reset button.

🤜🏻 You’ve spent all week with your hands—
fixing, building, driving, lifting.
🧠 Your mind’s been running like an engine with the RPMs pinned.

Today's job:
➤ Let the tools cool
➤ Let the noise fade
➤ Let your shoulders drop below your ears.

‼️ This ain't lazy! This is maintenance.
🚛 You can’t run a rig into the ground without blowing off the maintenance checks
🫵🏻 Same goes for you.

❔ How are you resetting today?
A cold one? 🍺 A long drive with the windows down? Silence?
🚫 No judgment here.

Ever hear about getting to the “positive side of neutral”? 🧠

It’s not about forcing happiness.
It’s about gently nudging your thoughts from the negative (-5) past neutral (0) and toward the positive (+5) -- let's try for a +.5 or even +.25 today.

Last night in the , we talked about how cognitive distortions — those “stinkin’ thinkin’” patterns — can keep us stuck below that neutral line.

➤ All-or-nothing thinking
➤ Mental filter (only seeing what went wrong)
➤ Over-generalizing

The goal isn’t perfection. It’s awareness. It’s catching the thought, holding it gently, and asking: “Is there another way to see this?”

You don’t have to do it alone.

If you’re tired of fighting your own mind…
If you’re ready to move from 😐 to 😌…

Reach out. Like Motel 6, we'll keep the light on for ya. Let’s walk the path to the best version you -- possible — together.

📩 DM to learn more about groups or 1-on-1 sessions.

Tuesday: When the Monday motivation wears off and you realize you're still trapped in the same capitalist nightmare, just with more emails and less hope.

⚰️ DARK MODE SURVIVAL KIT:
· Embrace the void—it's more reliable than your Wi-Fi anyway
· Your to-do list is a lie invented by people who hate joy
· Survival is winning—productivity is a scam for the already privileged

☠️ REALITY CHECK:
"They say 'fake it till you make it' but I've been faking it so long I'm starting to suspect 'making it' is just another pyramid scheme."



09/22/2025

"Monday. The corporate cult's weekly sacrifice of your soul on the altar of productivity. Your only holy duty: protect your peace like it's the last match in a hurricane."

⚰️ DARK MODE SURVIVAL PROTOCOL:
· Caffeine IV drip optional but highly encouraged ☕⚡
· Embrace the existential dread—it's just your soul reminding you it's still trapped here
· Your worth ≠ your output. You're a human being, not a f*cking machine

💀 REALITY CHECK:
"They say 'new week, new me'—but the old me is still tired, underpaid, and one passive-aggressive email away from becoming a true crime podcast episode."



09/21/2025

Sunday isn’t for dreading Monday—it’s for giving Monday the middle finger from the comfort of your blanket fort. 🖕🛏️ Your rebel rules for the day:

💥 SUNDAY SURVIVAL (REBEL STYLE):
🙄 Ignore your inbox like it’s your ex 👀❌
🍻 Hydrate with whatever liquid brings you joy (coffee, wine, tears of your enemies—you do you) ☕🍷
👟 Move from bed to couch like it’s a marathon 🏃💨 (and medal accordingly)
‼️ Remember: Your worth isn’t measured in productivity—it’s measured in how well you protect your peace 🕊️✊

🖤 DARK HUMOR REALITY CHECK:
P.S. “They say ‘Sunday funday’… but my soul says ‘Sunday revolt-against-capitalism-day.’ We can do both!”
