Choosing Yourself First: Releasing Relationships That Hold You Back
It’s easy to get stuck in relationships that drain us, believing chaos or mediocrity is the norm. But choosing yourself first is a powerful shift. Start by acknowledging your worth and recognizing the impact of unhealthy relationships. Set boundaries, invest in activities that empower you, and celebrate your independence. Let go of what no longer serves your growth. It’s not selfish—it’s essential. Embrace the life you deserve, and trust that shedding what holds you back will create space for something better.
Finding My Light: A Journey to Peace and Purpose in Croatia
Sitting seaside with the Adriatic glistening before me, I sip my coffee and take in the peaceful November warmth. It feels surreal that this is my life now—a life I’ve longed for, surrounded by the timeless beauty of Solta, Old Town Split, and the Biokovo mountains. Little by little, I’ve shed what no longer serves me, learning to trust myself and embrace the present. My therapist recently remarked on my happiness, a stark contrast to when I first arrived, burdened by sadness. Today, I know that surviving my past has made me resilient; starting over is not from scratch, but a new beginning enriched by all my experiences.
