"When Chemistry Clouds Clarity" – A personal story on why speaking your truth isn’t enough. I thought I had high standards, but I realized I wasn’t fully standing for them. This experience taught me that compromising for connection can lead to a deeper disconnection from yourself. When you honor your standards, you create space for true alignment and self-respect.

Many women find it challenging to receive for several reasons. A significant barrier to receiving is a sense of worthiness. This feeling of unworthiness is often unconscious, meaning women are not conscious aware that they think this way, but it shows up in their inability to fully receive compliments, help or gifts. Women will often deflect compliments, downplay the kindness shown to them, and feel obliged to give back when they are given to.

Understand what's blocking you from receiving, so you can get your needs met without always having to do all the work and have your partner feel successful, competent, and excited about providing and taking care of you.
