Hello Everyone & Welcome Back to the RealPositiveGirl Podcast!
Thank you so much for joining me again!
Happy Wednesday!
This week's theme for the podcast is: Relationship Struggles
Relationships can be super tough, but it's important to remember that in the end, it's totally worth it because the hard stuff is what creates a stronger & deeper bond with your partner.
I want to talk about some of the hard things that come with being in relationships & how to get through those things & have amazing bonds.
Join me in learning more about relationship struggles this week!
Here are some notes from today's episode:
- Take whatever time you need to grieve. No matter how the trust was broken, you will need time to heal. The time frame on that will differ depending on how you process things & honestly what caused the trust issues.
- Get in touch with your inner self. This could be prayer, meditation or just sitting quietly in a serene environment. The reason this is important is because usually when trust issues happen, you also end up not trusting yourself anymore because you think you aren’t able to make sound judgements, see red flags of someone breaking your trust or feel like you can make decisions that won’t cause you hurt in the end. Work on trusting yourself again & listening to your inner voice & intuition. This will help you to make the decisions you need to in the future & maybe be more aware of possible red flags.
- Make communication a top priority. Building trust with someone requires really good communication. You need to be open & honest with your partner & encourage them to do so, as well. If you are feeling uncomfortable about something, speak up & let them know. And make sure you define how important communication is to you from the start of the relationship.
- Forgiveness is hard, but necessary. If you keep all those negative feelings from your trust being abused, you’re only hurting yourself. And forgive yourself, if you are blaming anything that happened on yourself. By giving forgiveness, you are empowering yourself to come face to face with what happened, let it go & move on without it lingering or haunting you.
- Do not dwell on the past. When your trust is compromised, you might want to hold onto that hurt because you are afraid of it happening again or as an excuse to not try again. I’m here to tell you that part of your healing includes not dwelling on what happened. It will not help you prevent it from happening again & only hold you back from opening your heart again.
- You’re responsible for your own happiness. You get to decide when you want to move on & move forward. You get to decide when you want to try getting into a new relationship again & you get to decide when this hurt is no longer holding you back from being happy again. If what you need to do is be alone for a bit before jumping into something new, do it. But do not use the excuse of what happened to you as your reason you cannot be happy. It will not hold up for long.
- Taking it slow when entering new relationships. Let yourself get comfortable before moving to any other steps in the relationship & don’t rush it.
