Are you the villain—or are you so committed to being seen as good that you haven’t questioned how you show up?Sometimes we withhold the truth, avoid setting boundaries, and call it kindness. We say “I understand” while quietly building resentment. We keep the peace until maintaining it becomes somebody else’s responsibility.What happens to a relationship when looking like a good person becomes more important than practicing honesty, accountability, and care?In this episode, we’re talking about people-pleasing, self-abandonment, and the harm we can cause while trying to keep our “good person” identity intact.Ask yourself: Where am I choosing to be perceived as good at the expense of being truthful?👇 What has trying to be “the understanding one” cost you? Share what you’re comfortable sharing in the comments.I’m also developing an eight-week cohort around self-abandonment—how we lose ourselves in our relationships, and how we practice showing up without leaving ourselves behind. More on that soon.It’s just information.

It's never about the spilled milk... Sometimes the relationship has spoiled over time. Relationships - of all kind - exist and expire because of one thing: Repetition. How many times has something come up that wasn't repaired? How many bids for connection dismissed? How many important things forgotten. We talk a lot about intention but impact has it's place; And we can discover the true impact of our participation in our connections. I have limited open availability for 1:1 coaching. If there is one thing, or many, there's space to work through it.

Most people get older, but not everyone grows up. And at some point, I think it’s important to recognize that relational negligence isn’t a biological trait assigned by gender as much as it is a societal disposition that can be taught. When it comes to friendship amongst men, stoicism can be saying the quiet part out loud. What do you desire from friendship that you might be afraid to actually ask for or give?
elationships require responsibility and awareness, but are we are of what we are communicating to one another in our connections? What do we expect from others?What do we expect from ourselves?What are we willing to give to others?Self-awareness has some fine print to it.
Sometimes you may feel closer to people than you actually are. It can be disappointing, confusing, and even disheartening. But how do you know the difference?Our interpersonal relationships exist because of the things we consider important: Enjoyment, proximity, love, and desire. But there are other components that are just as necessary if not more. Sometimes your relationships are missing them and while there may be substitutions that fill in the blanks, they don't create as strong of a bond.
