There is so much we’ll do to make a relationship work. There is beauty to that, of course. And…there can also be a lot of pain to that too.
Making relationships work has loads of layers to it. But one of the ones I want you to explore is the why behind it. Sometimes we’ll do anything to make a relationship work because the idea of something ending feels like failure. Or maybe it leaves us feeling unworthy. Or maybe it communicates to us that we’ll never be loved.
When keeping a relationship keeps us from an outcome/pain we’re desperately avoiding it begs a curiosity.
If I didn’t carry questions or fears around failure, worthiness, or prioritization, would I still choose to be here? If my pain didn’t have such a hold on me (ie. It didn’t define me) would I choose differently?
This isn’t about swinging the pendulum to where we give up on relationships at the first sign of something hard. I know we have to be reminded to walk that nuanced line. This is about exploring the motivation for keeping a relationship and whether it’s tied to us avoiding a pain of our own that feels intolerable.
I’m so curious about your reflections. Share below 💕

I’ve had to work on all of these. Still do at times. Growth ebbs and flows, hems and haws. Call it whatever you want. The charge lessens, the pull shifts, what you can accept and let go moves. And sometimes it still rears its head. But the work is about noticing where the reactivity is — noticing where you want to control something. Understanding the function of that control (what’s it protecting you from) and then creating enough safety within yourself (and around you) to engage it differently. Hard work. But beautiful work.

Learn about your origin wounds and theirs. Understand your story and theirs. Healing these wounds is vital to loving yourself AND loving others well.
⚡️Comment QUIZ and I’ll send you the link to my free What’s Your Origin Wound quiz.⚡️
Relationships are where our past pain plays out over and over again. It’s why it’s in this space we come face to face with learning how to love ourselves and others differently. Past pain will either expand or go on a healing journey. Of course, I hope the latter for you. But you need to know about your origin wounds (and theirs) if the relationship will be the container for love to expand, for safety and trust to grow, and for healing to take place.

When someone frequently says “I don’t know”, it lets me know (most of the time) that what they’re really saying is “I don’t know how” or, “it’s not safe enough for me to.” And before we try to figure out how to change this, I like to learn about what happened in their lives that asked them or required them to move away from their inner experience, their feelings, their clarity, their wishes, wants and desires.
There is nothing wrong with you if you consistently struggle to know how you feel, what you want to do with your life, or if you struggle to have the answers you think you should. When you’ve been living in self protection for decades, it can be hard know how to be in touch—in contact—with yourself. Might you get curious about your story:
Did you have parents who were preoccupied and rarely asked you what was going on in your inside world?
Did you have a sibling whose mental health struggles were all consuming, leaving very little attention and energy for you?
Were you mocked, made fun of, criticized, or ridiculed when you did share?
Was perfection an expectation in your family system, so anything that deviated away from that was forbidden?
Did you have a controlling parent whose pressure to do as they wanted was dominant?
Was there abuse present, and disconnecting was your survival?
Big breath. You make sense with context. And, you can begin to build safety within yourself. Over the last 6+ months I’ve been writing The Origin Healing Method — a 5-part guidebooks series that is a companion to the origin wounds from The Origins of You. Tomorrow is the LAST DAY to join the waitlist (which gives you early access, exclusive bonuses — including a live Q&A with me, and early discount). Comment WAITLIST and I’ll DM it to you.
If you want to learn more about what your primary origin wound is, comment QUIZ and I’ll send you the link to take the free What’s Your Origin Wound quiz. It’s filled with insight, reflections, and journal prompts. 🧡
