Happy Thursday! Triggered by an eye-opening TikTok, I discuss the often overlooked self-neglect women experience, unpack how societal and cultural conditioning contribute to these behaviours, and explore the detrimental effects of over-functioning in relationships. We’ll also touch on the importance of self-advocacy, understanding attachment wounds, and discerning true love from a mere illusion. We're also on YouTube, link below and make sure to subscribe, xx!
