Hey everyone!

Today's episode is a deep dive into a crucial topic – the unmistakable signs that signal it's time to prioritise your healing before embarking on a new relationship. You might be wondering, "How much healing is enough before I consider being with someone new?" While there's no exact formula, these clear indicators will tell you when you need to pause and focus on yourself.

1. Unresolved Emotional Baggage: If past traumas or emotional baggage still dominate your thoughts, taking time to achieve emotional neutrality is crucial before considering another relationship. Rebounds often hide rather than resolve these feelings.

2. Lack of Self-Love: Your relationship with yourself reflects in your choice of partner and how you let them treat you. Building self-love is foundational for a healthy connection with someone else.

3. Dependence on External Validation: Seeking validation from external sources like social media or appearance rather than building internal validation can lead to unhealthy relationships. Internal validation is the key to a more robust connection.

4. Feeling Incomplete Without a Relationship: If you've always been in a relationship and struggle with being single, it's time to embrace your own company and find fulfillment independently.

5. Fear of Being Alone: The idea of being alone terrifies you; addressing this fear is crucial to avoid co-dependency, unhealthy attachments, and difficulty setting boundaries in a relationship.

6. Unhealthy Relationship Patterns: Identifying and addressing patterns, whether attracting the wrong partner or fearing abandonment, is crucial for building a healthy relationship. Breaking these cycles prevents potential regrets down the line.

Remember, the goal here is not to rush or scare you into action but to emphasise the importance of investing time in healing.

Takeaways from today:

1. Unresolved emotional baggage
2. Lack of self-love
3. Dependence on external validation
4. Feeling incomplete without a relationship
5. Fear of being alone
6. Unhealthy relationship patterns

The Only 3 Things You Should Prioritize This Year for Your Best Life: Habits, Health, and Guidance

Hey, everyone! Today, let's explore how much control you truly have over your healing journey. Contrary to the popular belief that time is the ultimate healer, I'll share why focusing on specific areas of your life is far more impactful.

1. Habits: The Unsung Heroes of Healing

Our habits play a crucial role in our lives, yet we often underestimate their significance. Time alone won't heal wounds; it's what you do during that time that matters. Learn why building positive habits is key to supporting your healing process.

2. Health: Nurturing Your Mind and Body

Your physical well-being significantly influences your emotional state. Explore how factors like sleep, diet, exercise, sunlight, and hydration can amplify or alleviate the emotional turmoil of a breakup. Taking care of your health provides a healthier perspective and the energy to focus on positive aspects of moving on.

3. Guidance and Accountability: The Transformational Role of Mentors

Success often involves guidance and mentorship. Discover why seeking guidance from someone who has successfully navigated a similar journey is essential. Mentors offer emotional support and encouragement, crucial during the challenging times of heartbreak.

Thank You for Listening!

Thank you so much for joining me in this episode. If it resonated with you, consider listening again, as sometimes revisiting important points can deepen understanding. Your healing journey matters, and I appreciate you being here. Until next time!

In today's episode, we're delving into a topic that many of us grapple with—what to do when you've given your all but still can't move on from a breakup. Whether it's been a month or five years since the split, the expectations we place on ourselves can be overwhelming. I want to explore common strategies people try, why they may not have worked, and, most importantly, what you can do to shift your perspective and truly move forward.

1. The Myth of Instant Healing: If you're only a month post-breakup and expecting to be fully moved on, be gentle with yourself. Breakups are traumatic, and healing takes time.
2. Common Strategies: We'll discuss some common strategies people try, such as distracting themselves with work or hobbies, engaging in rebound relationships, and attempting no contact.
3. Why They Might Not Work: The key lies in the attitude and intention behind these strategies. Merely going through the motions without an internal transformation can lead to futile attempts at healing.
4. Changing Your Perspective: Moving on isn't about forgetting your ex or winning them back; it's an opportunity for personal growth, learning, and building a better version of yourself.

Remember, healing is an internal process, not an external one. It's not about quick fixes but about investing in yourself and facing the hard, confronting aspects of your journey.

You have a choice—to resort to short-term strategies or to view this as an opportunity for personal investment and growth. The path you choose shapes the person you become in the long run.

Hey there, it's Sylvia here and I'm so stoked about today's episode!

Ever wondered why some people seem to move on effortlessly while others get stuck in the heartbreak loop? Well, that's what we're dissecting today. There's a lot at play, and I'm passionate about shedding light on actions that either propel us forward or hold us back during the healing process.

Key Insights:

• The Thought-Feeling-Behavior Connection: In psychology, there's this model called Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). It's all about how our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are so intertwined they practically dance together. Think of those more than 60,000 thoughts buzzing in your head each day – automatic thoughts. While we can't control their entrance, we sure can dictate their stay. Imagine a thought like "I'm just not good enough." It brings a feeling of sadness or hopelessness, shaping your subsequent behaviour. Change the thought, and you're altering the entire dance.
• Distorted Perspectives: One key difference between swift healers and perpetual heartbreakers? Their perspectives. Overgeneralising, catastrophising, or wearing negativity goggles create a distorted view, making it tough to break those thought patterns. Change starts with challenging these perspectives.

A Personal Journey:

Let me take you back to my airport days during a challenging divorce. Surrounded by negativity, I was inadvertently soaking it in until I discovered the power to change thought patterns. It wasn't an instant fix – breaking old habits never is – but this shift sparked a ripple effect. Changing thoughts led to new beliefs, influencing my decisions, actions, and ultimately, the trajectory of my life.

Masterclass Reminder:

Myth 1: Time Heals All Wounds: "Have you ever heard the saying 'time heals all wounds'? Well, in the context of heartbreak, it's not that simple. Join me as I explore why relying solely on time might not be the most effective strategy for healing and what you can do instead to actively move forward."

Myth 2: Closure Solves Everything: "Seeking closure is a natural instinct after a breakup, but is it the magic solution we hope for? In this segment, I dissect the myth that closure is the key to moving on and share practical ways to find the understanding and acceptance you need, even without external validation."

Myth 3: Rebound Relationships: "Is jumping into a new relationship the shortcut to healing? Let's talk about why rebound relationships might not be the answer and how giving yourself the time and space to process the breakup is crucial for genuine healing."

Myth 4: Moving On Quickly Signifies a Lack of Love: "It's a common misconception that moving on quickly means the love wasn't genuine. I unpack this myth and shed light on the different ways people process emotions post-breakup, challenging the idea that swift movement indicates a lack of love."

Myth 5: Moving On Means Forgetting: "Have you ever felt hesitant to move on because it felt like letting go of the memories? Let's discuss the misconception that moving on equates to forgetting and explore why embracing the next chapter of your life is a crucial step toward healing."

As we wrap up today's episode, I want to leave you with the reminder that moving on is not about erasing the past but embracing the possibilities of the future. Don't forget to check out the details for my upcoming live masterclass. Thank you for tuning in, and I'll catch you on the next episode

1: Exploring the Freedom of Singleness Now, let's talk about something that's been on a lot of people’s mind—how to be single on purpose. For those of you in a transitional phase, maybe healing from a past relationship, this episode is for you. It's about embracing the freedom that comes with being unapologetically single. It's your time to be a little selfish and focus on your goals and passions. So, let's make the most of this opportunity together.

2: Addressing the Stigma of Singleness I know, I know—society can be judgmental. But let's challenge that stigma surrounding singlehood. Being single on purpose is a sign of strength. It's about choosing happiness over societal expectations.

In this episode, I share my excitement about the possibilities that 2024 holds for each of you. While my New Year's Eve might not have been filled with grand celebrations (thanks to the challenges of parenting young kids), I believe that starting the year feeling refreshed sets the tone for a remarkable journey ahead.

   • Example: Imagine going on a date without your ex occupying your thoughts, achieving a neutral stance.

2. Breaking Unhealthy Relationship Patterns:

   • Explore patterns of choices in relationships and recognize potential unhealthy behaviors.
   • Understand the danger of labeling others as "toxic" without self-awareness of our own behaviors.
   • Uncover the impact of unhealed wounds and traumas on relationship choices.

3. Curiosity and Self-Reflection:

   • Shift from asking, "What's wrong with me?" to "What part of me needs healing?"
   • Explore repeated patterns and consider the origin of your preferences in partners.

4. Journaling and Self-Exploration:

   • Begin the journey of self-discovery through journaling and dedicated time for reflection.
   • Embrace discomfort as you ask challenging questions and seek insights into your motivations.
