The Truth Is, No One Needs You to Be Problemless and Always Happy

by NATALIE | Aug 8, 2022 | Happiness & Self-Esteem

On the surface, striving to please others and acting happier than you feel, doesn’t seem problematic. They feel like noble acts that prioritise making others feel good. It feels like you’re always ‘on’ and ready to please. By centering everyone else’s needs,...

Disappointment From Unmet Expectations is a Much-Needed Wake-Up Call

by NATALIE | Jul 25, 2022 | Happiness & Self-Esteem

Each time you base your self-image, self-esteem and every thought, feeling, need, desire or expectation on the premise that you’re responsible for other people’s feelings and behaviour, you give away your power. How much room you have in your life for...

Feeling Our Feelings Is the Path to Increasing Emotional Intelligence

by NATALIE | Jul 18, 2022 | Happiness & Self-Esteem

I’m often asked about how one goes about increasing their emotional intelligence. In short, it’s by allowing ourselves to feel our feelings and cultivate healthier boundaries that allow us to understand what our feelings are telling us. From there, we can...

The Relationship or Situation Not Working Might Hurt, but It Isn’t a ‘Waste’

The Relationship or Situation Not Working Might Hurt, but It Isn’t a ‘Waste’

by NATALIE | Jul 11, 2022 | Letting Go

When you feel hurt and disappointed, a deep sense of loss can kick in. Like when you’re in the aftermath of a breakup. You might believe that your efforts were a waste because you may have invested months or years. Or maybe you compromised yourself by doing...

When is it ‘okay’ to have sex? You decide, not the fake rules and shoulds

by NATALIE | Jul 4, 2022 | Dating

When is it okay to have sex? What’s the ideal number of dates (or months of a relationship) to have sex? Should I have sex on the third date? Does having sex on the first date write off any prospects of a relationship [with that person]? If they’re willing to wait to...

Podcast Ep. 268: Get Out of the Field of Shoulds by Choosing Desire Over Obligation

by NATALIE | Jul 1, 2022 | Podcast: The Baggage Reclaim Sessions

A big part of being more boundaried is knowing the difference between doing things from a place of desire versus doing them from a place of obligation. In this week’s episode of The Baggage Reclaim Sessions, I share lessons I’ve learned from making a...

Trying to Make Someone Change Won’t Fix the Problem of Poor Boundaries

by NATALIE | Jun 27, 2022 | Boundaries

A huge source of frustration is knowing that something doesn’t feel good or right for us but waiting for something or someone else to change. This is a boundary issue that leads to us making choices, even passive ones, and then feeling wounded by them. This renders us...

Podcast Ep. 267: About Riding the Rollercoaster of Worst-Case-Scenario Anxiety

by NATALIE | Jun 24, 2022 | Podcast: The Baggage Reclaim Sessions

In this week’s episode of The Baggage Reclaim Sessions, I talk about how potentially scary news about a relative’s health ended up teaching me some powerful lessons about managing anxiety and worry. Are you a best/better-case scenario or worst-case...

It’s Most Definitely Not Your Job to Make a Romantic Partner Commit

by NATALIE | Jun 20, 2022 | Emotional Unavailability

Something plenty of us are or have been guilty of is taking it personally when someone lacks the ability or desire to commit. Hell, we have a pesky habit of internalising other people’s feelings and behaviour in general! As a result, when people disappoint or...

Podcast Ep. 266: Do More ‘Reps’ of Being Yourself

by NATALIE | Jun 17, 2022 | Podcast: The Baggage Reclaim Sessions

In this week’s episode of The Baggage Reclaim Sessions, I talk about the importance of representing yourself—showing up, speaking up and stepping up for who you really are. If we’re not authentically representing ourselves, people don’t have a...

Jaysus, I’m officially forty-five! It feels like such a big age. 🤣👏🏾Much as I’ve enjoyed my forties so far and feel more me than I’ve ever been, it’s also been a mixed bag of emotions due to internalised messaging about ageing and so this sense that I’m ‘past it’. Like it’s only downhill from here when it really isn’t. Noticing these feelings and thoughts has been and still is an invitation to get grounded and connect to my truth, to notice the bias and bullshit. And do you know what? I’m grand. I’m learning to let things be and saying no to pressuring myself to be and do ‘more’. That includes remembering that much as I might still feel like a teen in my head, that I don’t need to try to pressure myself to have the body, the energy levels or ambitions of my twenties and thirties! Cheers to forty-five and whatever it has in store for me.

No matter how old I get, I’ll always be a 90’s raver at heart, so initially I wasn’t feeling Beyoncé’s new tune that much. And yet here I am a few days later raving it UP 🤣🤣

Until you know what you’re closed to, so what doesn’t work for you, what’s not in alignment with your values, boundaries, needs, desires and expectations, you can’t know and enjoy what you’re open to. You’re not a free-for-all. Express your boundaries by expressing more of who you really are. #baggagereclaim #healthyboundaries #boundariesarebeautiful #recoveringpeoplepleaser #peoplepleaser #selfcare #healthyrelationships #codependentnomore

View

Trying to live up to everyone’s expectations is like trying to cup the ocean in your hands. And yet so many of us do this to ourselves and then wonder why we feel so lost, anxious, low and resentful. Making ourselves jump through hoops for other people’s shoulds takes a toll on our emotional, mental, physical and spiritual well-being as well as the health and of our intimate relationships. When we allow ourselves to create healthy boundaries, to be more honest versions of ourselves, we accept that disappointing others by not always being able to meet their shoulds is a natural and healthy part of life. #baggagereclaim #healthyboundaries #selfcaretips #listentoyourself #recoveringpeoplepleaser #peoplepleaser #recoveringperfectionist
