On this week’s She Rises Podcast, Tijana shares her breakup story - what really happened and the lessons she learned the hard way. What began as an instant, deeply aligned connection slowly turned into a push–pull dynamic that left her feeling uncertain, unchosen, and disconnected from herself. In this episode, she opens up about the anxious–avoidant dance, ignoring her intuition, and staying longer than she should have while trying to believe words that didn’t match actions, reflecting on the hard truths heartbreak teaches: you can’t love someone into loving you, you can’t prove your worth, confusion is a red flag, and intuition never lies.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On this episode of She Rises, we’re unpacking the conditioning so many women grow up with, the pressure to be nice at the expense of being honest, expressed, and self-respecting. We explore how “nice girl” behaviour often shows up as people-pleasing, over-extending, avoiding conflict, and abandoning your own needs just to keep the peace or protect how others perceive you. We talk about why being nice isn’t the same as being kind, and how niceness can quietly suppress the parts of you that are opinionated, fiery, strong-willed, or deeply authentic. If you’ve ever felt exhausted from always being the “easy” one, this episode will help you see why and what actually changes when you stop abandoning yourself to be liked. tune in to get the full scope! See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode of She Rises we’re unpacking what it actually looks like to have a healthy relationship with social media without letting it impact your confidence, nervous system, or sense of self.
