Ep. 45 - Loving yourself during your breakup 06.07.2020

Loving yourself is not the equivalent of self-care. We can take all the actions in the world and do self-care routines but if we don't change our brains we don't change the feelings. Instead, you might find yourself forcing the self-care routines vs letting them come to you naturally and organically. Two of my clients recently mentioned that "dating someone will have to be better than what it's li...

Ep. 44 - What he's saying isn't true 29.06.2020

What he's saying about you doesn't have to be your truth. Just because he says "You don't make me a priority" "You're crazy, you need to stop acting like I'm the problem, you're the problem" "You're a hypocrite" "You were the one that messed up" "You're just seeking attention" -- doesn't mean it's your reality. Nor does it mean you need to convince him otherwise.    In this episode: Learn how to l...

Ep. 39 - The emotional rollercoaster during a breakup 08.06.2020

I think all of us can agree that going through a breakup tends to be a lot of high highs and low lows. We have a lot of emotions. This goes for people who are broken up with AS WELL as those who did the breaking up. What if I told you, that YOU had control over these? What if you weren't at the effect of him calling or texting? What if you weren't at the effect of him being or not being with anoth...

"He's not hurting" "He's not upset" "He didn't choose me" "He didn't love me" "I'm always replaced" "He's not the same person" -- All very real statements my bravehearts come to me with. They feel like its all SO true. And when they do, it creates so much pain for them. So I've created an episode that will be a GAME CHANGER for any of you who feel like your pain is so heavy.

Ep. 33 - Toxic people and relationships 27.04.2020

I often hear people talking about others as "toxic" or a relationship was "toxic" when in reality there are no toxic people, only toxic thoughts. And when we choose to think of someone as toxic, we are only doing ourselves a disservice.    In this episode: Learn how there are no toxic humans just toxic thoughts How it hurts us to think about other humans in that way How to deal with "toxic" humans...

Ep. 30 - What breakup lies are keeping you stuck? 06.04.2020

Today we are talking about breakup lies that I'm seeing so many of us mistake for truth. They are common and oh so sneaky.

Ep. 29 - Clean pain vs dirty pain 30.03.2020

There are two types of pain going on during heartbreak. We have clean pain which is the typical grief, sadness and loss we experience with heartbreak but I also see a secondary pain that is being compounded which holds us back from actually getting over our ex and moving on. That pain is called "dirty pain" where we tend to shame ourselves because we are even experiencing emotional suffering in th...

Ep. 28 - Post traumatic growth 23.03.2020

Post-traumatic growth is something I talk about with my clients pretty often however it's very relevant to what everyone is experiencing in the world right now so I wanted to make sure to cover it with all the Braveheart listeners.

Overall this is a time to rise up. In 3 to 4 months from now I want you to be STRONGER I want you to come out of this like OMG what did she do?!?!

Ep. 25 - Commitment and determination after a breakup 09.03.2020

The reason this is so important is because we MUST show up as future you. Future you who is over her ex, who is THRIVING not just surviving, the woman who knows her worth, attracts what she wants in life, and makes decisions that benefit her long term not short term. The woman who isn't constantly obsessing over her ex, stalking his and her social media. You are NOT That person. Being committed an...

Ep. 24 - Money and scarcity in breakup 06.03.2020

Going through a breakup (and obviously divorce) costs money. Not only do your expenses double but you are also struggling with scarcity around your life in general, so living in financial scarcity can be an easy subconscious decision that leads to missing opportunities to make or save more. Join me as I discuss breakups, divorce, money and scarcity with my million dollar money coach Jill Wright. I...
