Character Vibes

Integrity Over Impressions When I was younger, I’ll admit — I used to be impressed by status. Titles, accomplishments, and appearances seemed to carry so much weight. If someone had the right job, drove the right car, or moved in the right circles, it felt like proof of their worth. But as I matured, IContinue reading “Character Vibes”

Sorry Vibes

The Anatomy of an Apology An apology is more than words—it’s accountability paired with changed behavior. Anyone can say “I’m sorry” or “I love you,” but if they continue the same actions that cause harm, the words lose their meaning. True accountability means recognizing the hurt, taking responsibility without excuses, and actively working to doContinue reading “Sorry Vibes”

Wish Vibes

11:11 Make a Wish ✨ — What Are Angel Numbers and What Do They Mean? It happens all the time. You glance at your phone or the clock on the wall and there it is again: 11:11. Without even thinking, you close your eyes and make a wish. Maybe it’s something small and secret. MaybeContinue reading “Wish Vibes”

Samsara Vibes

Karma, Reincarnation, and Balancing the Cosmic Scale There’s a reason the Golden Rule exists: Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. It’s not just some quaint moral guideline passed down through generations—it’s a truth embedded in the way the universe seems to work. Every action has a reaction. Every seed you plant eventuallyContinue reading “Samsara Vibes”

Dance Vibes

“That’s Just How I Am” – Honest, But Is It Healthy? You’ve probably said it before, or at least thought it: “That’s just how I am.” Maybe it felt like an honest declaration, a way of owning your quirks or habits. But here’s the hard truth: while honesty matters, using that phrase as a shieldContinue reading “Dance Vibes”

Safe to Love Vibes

Love, Safety, and How We’re Wired As a therapist, I often talk with clients about relationships—romantic, familial, and platonic. One truth I return to again and again is this: people don’t always love us in the ways we want them to, but in the ways they know how. Love is filtered through the nervous system,Continue reading “Safe to Love Vibes”

Kevin Parker Vibes

I don’t know how people do life without a soundtrack. Music is my anchor, my hype, my therapy—except for country (though, full disclosure, I will belt “Friends in Low Places” at karaoke). My default? Britney’s “Oops I Did It Again,” always. Today, Tame Impala (aka Kevin Parker) dropped a new track, Loser, and I was elated! HeContinue reading “Kevin Parker Vibes”

Deep Vibes

Depth Can Be Disruptive “People can only meet you at the depth of which they have met themselves.” Shallow people often get uncomfortable around deep people—not because the deep are doing anything wrong, but because depth demands presence. It challenges surface-level conversation, empty validation, and performative connection. The Therapist’s Perspective In therapy, we often returnContinue reading “Deep Vibes”

Avoidant Vibes

Stop Running From Love — You’re Worthy of It When you put up walls and keep your feelings bottled up, those emotions don’t disappear — they come back, usually louder and messier than before. And when you push people away, even the ones who genuinely care, eventually they’ll walk. Not because they didn’t love you,Continue reading “Avoidant Vibes”

Break the Spell Vibes

When You Stop Trading Physical Intimacy for the Illusion of Love So many women—myself included, at times—have mistaken flattery, charm, and love bombing for real love. It feels intoxicating when a man showers you with attention, tells you everything you’ve been longing to hear, and makes you feel chosen. But often, the harsh truth isContinue reading “Break the Spell Vibes”
