Episode 7: Whew, this one goes deep, y’all. 💥 If you’re an empathic, heart-centered woman (hello, most of us!) who’s staying in a marriage because you don’t want to hurt your partner… this episode is a loving wake-up call. 💔✨I’m breaking down how guilt—especially the guilt we’ve been trained to carry—keeps us spinning in confusion and stuck in marriages that no longer align with our truth. And let’s be honest: most of us were raised in patriarchal systems that taught us to prioritize everyone else’s comfort over our own clarity. 😩In this episode, we’ll dive into: 🔁 Why guilt feels so heavy (and how patriarchy planted that seed) 🧠 The coaching principle that changed everything for me: you are not responsible for other people’s feelings 👀 What to watch for when a partner is guilting or manipulating you to stay 🚫 Why emotional protest behavior isn't love—it’s control dressed up in “I miss you” 🔥 What real, mature love sounds like (and why you deserve that kind of partnership) 🌱 How to reclaim your power, set boundaries, and stop contorting yourself to keep the peaceI’ll also share my own personal stories (including some seriously ✨Taylor Swift “Blank Space” vibes✨ from my dating life) to show how this stuff plays out in real time—and why it’s so freeing to stop carrying responsibility for other people’s reactions.Here’s your permission slip, friend: you get to make the right choice for YOU, even if it disappoints someone else. You are not selfish. You are sovereign. 💪💫Links and Show NotesSupport the showYouTube Channel The Deep Dive - 3 Month One-on-One Coaching Intensive Stay or Go Community Instagram Facebook This is a public episode.
