Find the courage to heal your wounds before you do what has been done many times before: continue to transmit your hurt and your trauma to your children or partner.

‘Not everyone is worthy of our trust, and that is honestly why it is so much better to start any new relationship slowly.’

A healthy relationship is about an equal partnership of mutual respect.

Vulnerability can often be mistaken for weakness, but I assure you there is nothing weak about a man who has the courage to own his own baggage, and begin to address a way of living that currently is not only hurting those around him but is destroying him from the inside out too.

As long as you hate yourself, it will never be possible to be patient and kind to any child who reminds you of you.

SHAME magnifies in secrecy. It ruled my life until I was met with understanding and empathy. Choose wisely who you share your SHAME with, they have the power to heal or hurt.

I know with absolute certainty that for you to inflict or project pain onto her, you must be in immense pain yourself.

‘Through my own journey I’ve learnt that my pain has actually been the biggest invitation to heal.’

Cycles repeat until one person has the courage to say: ‘This shit stops with me’.

Trust should be built in increments. People should not be dismissed before they are given an opportunity to show who they are. But nor should anyone be trusted in all things immediately.

All I ever wanted was for Mum to be safe from Dad. If she was safe, so were we. Our story went on too long because Mum didn’t know she could leave. She tried so hard for years to save my Dad from his pain. All that happened was his pain became her pain, and that became our pain.

Trauma-informed is not domestic violence-informed. We need both. @safeandtogether #coercivecontrol #FixSystemsNotSurvivors

There's a major problem when you expect your partner to fulfil every role in your life, instead of stepping into that role yourself. I've learnt for myself that no one soul can ever be everything to us.
