S18 Ep 7S18E7: When Your Reality Isn’t Matching Up With Your Dreams
EHey lady! When you look at your life does it reflect where you thought you’d be twenty years ago, or is it completely different than how you imagined? If it’s radically different than what you imagined don’t fret. In fact, rejoice because that can be a sign that you’ve been following your unique path. This week, Terri and Dr. Dom sit down and reflect on their lives and process the ups and downs of their respective paths. In some areas, they still have goals they are aspiring to reach and in other aspects, the lives they’re currently leading are far better than what they imagined at 17. Does that resonate with you? Let this episode be an inspiration to keep moving forward in the direction of your dreams. And, also let it be a moment to stop and take stock of the beautiful life you’ve built. If there are things you want to change you have time to make it happen, and if there are things you want to amplify, there is time to make those happen too. So, take a deep breath and tap in!

S17 Ep 3S17E3: What Gaslighting, Red Flags, and Manipulation Sound Like
ELady, healing isn’t linear, and it doesn’t always feel good, but with tools and strategies, you can navigate life with grace, clarity, and lightness. Dr. Dom and Terri have a deep conversation about the truth of gaslighting, red flags, and manipulation. Maybe you’ve heard these terms recently, but do you really know what they mean? Accessing the language around these pieces of the cycles of abuse can help you create a toolkit that can help you identify them earlier in your relationships. Knowing these terms can also help you identify when you have been the initiator of potentially harmful behavior. Lady, listen to this episode with your journal and a ton of grace and self-compassion. Terri and Dr. Dom clearly lay out the signs so that you can see them early and make decisions from a centered place.
