In this episode, I’m opening up about the raw, real, and sometimes painful lessons I’ve learned through love — especially the kind that felt more toxic than true. These experiences cracked me open, taught me what I will no longer accept, and reminded me of the kind of love I deserve — starting with the love I give myself.

Whether you’re navigating heartbreak, healing from a situationship, or reflecting on patterns in your relationships, this episode is here to remind you of your worth.

If you’ve ever felt small in love or lost yourself trying to be “enough,” this one’s for you.

Here’s what I unpack in this episode:

✨ Why self-love is the foundation for every healthy relationship

✨ How people pleasing slowly builds resentment and burns you out

✨ The truth about relationships having seasons and natural endings

✨ Why people act as mirrors — and what that means for your growth

✨ How your energy can shift the dynamic in any relationship

✨ The power of boundaries and honoring your non-negotiables

✨ And the golden rule: if you feel small, they’re not your person
