Victorious CoachThe Relationship Triangle: Why Healthy Love Needs Two Whole PeopleMost people were taught that relationships work when two people merge.Ahhh, when two become one. That idea creates burnout, resentment, and quiet disconnection. Let’s be real! In this video, I break down the relationship triangle, a capacity-based model that reframes intimacy in a healthier, more sustainable way, especially for neurodivergent and ADHD couples.Instead of two people trying to meet all of each other’s needs, the triangle recognizes:• two individuals with their own nervous systems• a third, separate entity called the relationship• surplus energy, not obligation, as what sustains connectionI get into why expecting your partner to be your...

When we learn to engage in hard conversations with emotional intelligence and care, we do more than resolve conflict. We interrupt patterns that were never ours to carry.Drawing from two frameworks, this episode offers grounded, trauma-informed tools for navigating difficult conversations with integrity. We move beyond scripts and into nervous system awareness, emotional boundaries, and conscious leadership.You will hear real-life examples of how to approach hard co...

2023-10-0141 minVictorious CoachUnpopular Opinion: You Can’t Outsource SafetyI used to think safety was something someone else could give me :: a partner, a therapist, a coach, a “safe space.” But as I’ve deepened into somatic and breathwork facilitation, I’ve learned that real safety can’t be outsourced. It has to be felt and built from within.In this episode, I’m talking about what safety actually means, not just psychologically, but physiologically.
