Dying to live--Suicide is a very sensitive topic. It is never to be taken lightly. Hear what goes to a person's mind and the effects it has on the friends and families left behind.
Getting yourself together is the hardest yet best thing you can do for yourself. People will always think they are entitled in the relationships and that is where conflict arises. There are people who are willing to work on their shit, and then they are people always playing the victim because they don't want to work on their sht. If you are the "needy" insecure one in the relationship, the liar and cheater, the spy, the micromanager, the clam, the controller, the people pleaser.. you need to work on your stuff. No, it's not criticizing, it's guidance. It's a means for you to grow and live happily with yourself and with others.
Moving forward in addressing our issues, we want to learn from the things of our past and not allow them to hinder our future.
We become emotionally unavailable people when we stay connected to a person that doesn't want to heal from their past traumas or childhood. We will continue to carry the burden of those who are unwilling to change and will continue to stay stuck in an unhealthy relationship.
Tune in to find out more as I address some shady shit that people are willing to live by.
Being in a relationship with an emotionally unavailable person is difficult to say the least, because they do not know how to be in a healthy relationship with anyone because they are disconnected from themselves.

Take a dive and listen. If you can relate, then we have something to work with.

As we reflect on identifying our insecurities and where they came from. Part 2 is allowing you to process them and knowing that it is ok, and that we ALL have insecurities. Both men and women have them in different areas, and until we heal those parts of us, we will never be fulfilled in the ways that we need be.
You may use this for segment for anything that you feel you need to process. This is part of the therapy work that we do to identify, address, process, and heal from painful memories.
Insecurities can affect our lives in every relationship. If we continue to be insecure in ourselves, we will inevitably look for someone to fulfill the emotional wounds within us. Actually, the reality is that an insecure person will normally end up with the same type of person as them, so therefore creates a relationship built on uncertainty, anxiety, anger, disappointment, and instability. When someone tells you "they understand you because they lived the same kind of life" be careful. Your unhealed parts of you mirror each other.
Do you have anxiety? How do I know if I have anxiety?? Today we will take a look at the emotions that are felt when we are experiencing anxiety, stressed or panicky about something.

Growing up in a family lifestyle where there was chaos, fear, crying, hiding, scolding, bullying, violence, verbal abuse, emotional abuse, and a parent or parent(s) who were emotionally unavailable, we often wondered how in the world did we survive. We look at ourselves as champions today thinking we endured and are progressing in life with careers and a family. I want you to ask yourself BEFORE AND AFTER this episode this question: Who am I ???

Realizing our role in the dynamic of a dysfunctional family is an eye opener. We are exactly the people that we didn't want to be. Maybe you hated your manipulative parent, but now you ARE the manipulative parent AND spouse. We didn't want to to be the weak link in the family, but now I am the enabler of a Narcissistic spouse and allowing them to control my kids and their families. It bleeds into the next generation unless we make a conscious decision to change things for the future. Let's take a look to see where we are at and what role to we play.
We can now see everyone’s part in the dysfunctional family dynamic. We can get a better picture of what happens, how and where we will end up. These are interesting facts and although mind blowing , we want to break this cycle.

We all know that the teenage years are one of the most difficult seasons in life. It is a turning point where we have become physically, psychologically, and sexually aware of ourselves. It is time where most of us encounter life changing moments, and set the tone to our future in schooling, careers, and family life.

Stepping out of your comfort zone is hard, and it's painful. But as we take steps into healing, you will finally find freedom from the stongholds that were holding you back in life.
Taking the first step into healing is hard. We are afraid of releasing the things that held us together our whole life. In the midst of COVID-19, I feel that God has lead us to an area He wants us. To be in lock down, in desperate measures, knowing that He really is all that we can rely on. Join me in a walk where you can find freedom, and you will have support. We are in this crisis together!

Generational curses are patterns that carry from generation to generation . Although we may not be aware of them, we can now look to identify them and pray over our families and all parties who are involved.
