Hi fam! A lot of this episode is about my Mom’s abrupt recent passing and how I’m coping with that/how I’m getting back on track with healing in the wake of tragedy/grief. Sometimes things happen in life that can throw us off track with focusing on bettering ourselves. I also touch on the Holistic Psychologists new book, and the power of the mind/the placebo effect in regards to healing. Love you guys ❤️ --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/ashleyrakes/support

Don’t Mistake Chemistry for Compatibility

On this episode I’m going into the power of conscious inner dialogue and combatting opposing views/opinions a instead of making them mean so much to us. As individuals with codependent habits, we often will take on other people’s opinions and make it mean SO MUCH more than necessary. Thus creating internal misery, and even holding us back from our dreams and true desires. CUT THAT SH*T OUT! I love you guys ❤️❤️❤️ Do you like the show? Please be sure to leave a review/rating. ??

Is it Love or A Trauma Bond? And Emotional Abuse

I’M BACK! ❤️ In this episode I just wanted to recap some stuff going on, talk about the impending apocalypse, etc. ? but most importantly, address “addiction to relationships”. Why we shouldn’t shame ourselves once we find ourselves realizing we may be doing this, and why it throws our lives off balance. I also touch a bit on personal dating situations for me, and why I’m still finding myself drawn to a not so great dynamic because it’s FAMILIAR. Familiarity = comfort.
