Project Loving Myself

When a very public “perfect couple” falls apart, it quietly shakes something in all of us.If they couldn’t make it… what does that say about love? About soulmates? About us?And during the Christmas season — when everything feels louder — the love stories, the breakups, the questions we don’t usually say out loud — those doubts tend to surface even more.This episode is a gentle but honest conversation about why love doesn’t always last — and why that doesn’t mean love isn’t real. It explores what happens after the spark fades and real life begins, and how relationships unravel when growth is avoided, not when love is absent.Episode Resources✨ Join me in my free 3-hour Self-Love Roadmap workshop on January 10 — a guided space to reflect on the relationship patterns this year revealed and turn that awareness into a grounded, self-love–led plan for 2026 in the 6 key areas of your life.In this episode, you’ll learn how to:✨ Understand why love can end even when it was real✨ Reframe breakups and growing apart without self-blame or cynicism✨ See relationships as growth contracts, not fairy tales✨ Recognize how avoiding inner work quietly erodes connection✨ Recommit to yourself so love has space to evolve instead of fractureIf you’ve found yourself wondering, “Is love even real anymore?”This episode offers a steadier truth: love is real — but it isn’t static.

Love that for us.When things don’t show up the way you expected, it’s easy to think something’s gone wrong.But what if nothing’s wrong and life is just offering you a different lesson than the one you ordered?This week, I’m taking you with me to the African bush, where a simple phrase cracked me wide open:“What the bush gives, the bush gives.”Translation?
