Send this to someone as a reminder ⤵️

It’s true that individuals who are struggling with their own sense of self-worth or emotional pain may sometimes project their feelings onto others through hurtful behavior. Once you understand this, you’ll be able to to depersonalize the negative actions directed at you and recognize that they are often more about the other person’s internal struggles than about your own worth.

Just remember to set boundaries and take care of yourself. You deserve to be treated with kindness and respect regardless of another person’s struggles. It’s okay to distance yourself from toxic relationships or seek support when faced with hurtful behavior.

You have the right to prioritize your own mental and emotional health. If you find it difficult to navigate these challenges, seek guidance from a therapist or counselor.

It’s disheartening to see creators sharing menta

It’s disheartening to see creators sharing mental health content that isn’t reliable. Our mental well-being is too important to be misled or misinformed.

Whenever you encounter mental health content online or are considering creating and sharing mental health content yourself, ask these questions:

🤓Is it based on scientific evidence?
🤓Does the creator disclose their qualifications and limitations?
🤓Does the content avoid triggering or harmful language or imagery?
🤓Does the creator encourage seeking professional help when needed?
🤓Is the content free from promoting harmful practices or misinformation?

These help ensure that the information you’re consuming or sharing is reliable, ethical, and supportive of mental well-being.

Whether you’re scrolling through social media, watching a video, or reading an article, taking a moment to reflect on these questions can help you make more informed decisions and prioritize your mental health.

And, if you’re a content creator, considering these questions before posting can help uphold ethical standards and promote a safer online environment for mental health discussions ✨

Please ignore the sirens in the background 😆 Giving you a small snippet of my YouHabits Series with @wework.

For this session, I talked about how knowing your core value can help you make a habit of ranking the things that you want more in your life.

Let’s say one of your core values is socializing. You can prioritize going to events (obviously not everyday). If you have a thousand things going on, you wont even think about socializing in the middle of the week despite it being something you truly love doing.

YouHabits is exactly this. I teach you how to hack your habits so you make sustainable changes, allowing you to live a more fulfilling life. If this is something you’d also like to learn, DM me and I’ll add you to the YouHabits waiting list. I’ll be launching the course and book soon! Those in the waitlist will have exclusive access to both 🧠

Beauty fades and depreciates over time. Invest in yourself in ways that appreciates, increase in value, over time.

Save this for later ❤️‍🩹⤵️ TLDR; You

Save this for later ❤️‍🩹⤵️

TLDR; You cannot numb just "bad" emotions. When you do, you end up numbing the good emotions as well.

If there’s one thing I want you guys to know about dealing with rejection in dating, it’s this: you have to go through it. Go through those emotions, whatever they may be. Do not, and I repeat, do not supress any of them.

What’s interesting is when you’ve made a habit out of supressing what you may consider “bad” emotions when someone rejects you, you’re also teaching yourself to be numb. Numb from the “bad” emotions as well as the “good” ones.

So allow yourself to feel whatever comes up—whether it’s sadness, anger, or disappointment. Doing this makes you better equipped to move forward and grow from the experience.

Finally, know that rejection is not a reflection of your worth as a person. It’s simply a part of the journey to finding the right match.

About being vulnerable ⤵️🌸 A lot of us oft

About being vulnerable ⤵️🌸

A lot of us often associate vulnerability with feelings of exposure, uncertainty, and discomfort. But, I want to remind you today that it is a very natural and essential part of the human experience.

I came across these cherry blossoms a few weeks back and it made me think about how vulnerable and beautiful they are.

In a world that often tells us to hide our weaknesses and act like we have it all together, know that our vulnerabilities make us human, authentic, and capable of forming genuine connections with others.

These fleeting blossoms are a reminder of our humanity and the beauty that comes from being authentic and true to ourselves.
