Emotional Boundaries 

Marie is an inspiring author, speaker, and coach. She is a guidance counselor and the Author of “Pretty Divorce” which is a book that helps women survive the pitfalls of toxic marriages and helps them live their full potentials. In this episode we talked about how to create emotional boundaries in relationships. Emotional boundaries give you the ability to witness others’ emotions without taking their emotions into your bubble as your responsibility to react to, fix, or solve. They enable you to discern where your emotions end and another person’s emotions begin.

Emotional Cheating is a thing 

Emotional cheating is establishing a close emotional connection with someone other than your primary partner… The trigger for emotional cheating may be unconscious, where you develop an emotional dependency on someone else due to unmet emotional needs from your partner. It may also result in a conscious effort to fill in time, especially when there is a temporary physical or emotional gap between partners. #emotional #cheating #relationships

The Power of Consistency as an Element to Achieving Goals 

Our generation suffers from a very particular disease: immediacy. Immediacy limits our capacity to concentrate and to stay motivated to achieve our goals. In this digital world, information, social media and entertainment are always at our reach. Somehow, this has lead our brains to believe that everything is happening in this very moment and that the things that we can’t see or obtain immediately are not possible at all. Consistency is the only effective way to achieve our goals, and the best way to stay consistent in anything is to learn how to manage and maintain our motivation levels from the right reinforcements.

The Art Of Listening : Relationship 101

Listening is an art. It takes a lot of time and effort to become a good listener. Some people think listening is about waiting for your turn to speak. In reality, it’s not that simple. A good listener knows when it’s the right time to say something, and not just when it’s their turn to speak. When you listen well, your conversation partner will feel safe. They won’t judge you, because they know you truly care how they feel and what they have to say. This creates a deeper bond, which makes it easier to build trust

Toxic Leadership 

Working under destructive leadership is not just difficult for morale. It can also affect the performance of an entire team. Because toxic leaders tend to focus on their own interests, their behavior comes at the expense of their team’s wellness.
But it’s not always easy to spot toxic or destructive leaders, even if it seems obvious in hindsight.
Let’s take a look at what toxic leadership can look like and how you can deal with a toxic leader to thrive in your place of work.

Future Faking🙄🙄🙄 

Future faking is when a person lies or promises something about your possible future in order to get what they want in the present. ... Or even promising to marry you, carry you off into the sunset, and living happily ever after, all in order to make you complacent and to control you in the present. In the hands of a skilled manipulator, future faking preys on your dreams and goals in order to fabulate a possible future so that they can string you along in the now. These promises are destined to be broken, and can be seen as a form of overpromising and underdelivering. Essentially, the manipulator will take very little action, if any, towards keeping their promises. Instead, they will keep promising and using other forms of coercive control, passive and active abuse, until you find yourself in such a state that it is easier to go along with whatever the manipulator wants.
So future faking is, fundamentally, promising a future that the manipulator has no intention of acting towards, making promises that they wont keep. Instead, they distort reality to get what they want from you now. Future faking is one of the most prominent yet subtle tools used by people with strong narcissistic tendencies and other dark personality traits. Indeed, if youve had the misfortune to interact with a narcissist, you have certainly witnessed future faking in its most detrimental form. So what is future faking, how does it work, and what does it mean?

Found the one who Gets you 🥰

When you've found The One, the relationship just flows. Things are fairly easy.. You understand each other's viewpoints and perceptions, and either accept them or feel the same way. If a relationship is characterized by conflict, strife or butting heads on a regular basis, that likely tells you the compatibility is not there. You feel at home, totally comfortable, and are able to be yourself. Paying attention to how we feel when we're around someone is important. Do you feel calm, at peace, and genuinely happy? That is a great indicator. Thanks for Tuning in #lovewins #relationshiptalkshow #latenightswithjustdamie #podcast #applepodcast #spotify #stitcher

Playing Small is “Cancelled”

The term “playing small” refers to that part in each of us that’s focused on short-term, temporary comfort, security, relief, and validation.                            By contrast, playing big means we’re willing to experience short-term discomfort, risk, and uncertainty in the service of what we truly want — to feel alive, to experience greater love and connection with others, to feel a deep sense of peace, and to live with greater freedom.

Patience: Virtue or not? 

The act of waiting is passive; you’re being affected by everything around you instead of affecting everything around you. The thought of moving on is usually hard for us since we’re headed out into the unknown, hoping to find something better. Trying to find that line in the sand can be painful, confusing, and scary, but the decision to wait or take action is one that can really only be made by you. The circumstances of the situation are complex, and only you really know what is best for you.

Connection comes first 

Emotional connections can be formed in an instant, or they may take time to establish. Regardless of how quickly connections are formed, when they are established, communication becomes almost effortless. This means that if we want to communicate with our partners , we must be sure we are connecting with them. If we are connected, communication will be much easier and more effective. If we are disconnected, it doesn’t matter what we are communicating because the message isn’t getting through.

No Closure: Move On!!!

Closure can often be mean, regressive, and sometimes just plain hurtful. And although the past will always remain in the past, it’s so important to learn how to appreciate it for exactly what it was. The past has morphed you into who you are are today and the person you will be tomorrow. I think that we crave closure because it’s so hard to come to terms with the idea that unfortunately, we are never going to be able to figure out every little thing in life. Sometimes things just happen. People leave without an explanation. And it hurts like hell. It’s wildly confusing. But, the only thing you can really do is take everything you learned from the situation, grow from it, and leave the rest where it belongs, in the past.

YOU First

There’s a reason why the friendly voice on the plane always tells you, in case of an emergency, put your own oxygen mask on first.

If you try to put the mask on them first, you’re going to pass out — possibly before you even get the mask on them.
