Finding Connection with Counseling

Finding Connection with Counseling

Seeking counseling both as a couple and as an individual can be life changing. They don’t teach us in school how to regulate our emotions, handle conflict, address awkward family dynamics, process grief, acknowledge the impact of past traumas, know your values, and take care of yourself. I don’t believe that everyone needs to be in counseling for their entire lives, but I definitely believe that every human being can benefit from counseling for a season!

Purpose &gt; Comparison

"We won't be distracted by comparison if we're captivated with purpose" - Bob Goff 

Comparison is something that I think everyone struggles with at some point or another. I think as women, it can be so easy to compare ourselves whether it’s through our personalities, our bodies, or even our wedding days. There seems to be a huge pressure to look perfect or have everything together and that's what we usually come face to face with while we mindlessly scroll through our instagram feeds.

What People Don't Tell You About Moving in Together

Moving into a place with your partner is a big deal. It’s exciting for many reasons, but there are several things that people don’t talk about before committing to a shared space.

The wedding day is right around the corner and there are countless tools and checklists to guide you on what to do to be prepared for the celebration.
