rule your kingdom

Welcome to the start of a new feel-good focus… relationships 🎉 .

Romantic, family, work, the self. What you'll read applies to it all.

Because underneath every relationship lies this truth: how we interact with others comes down to how we feel about ourselves.

And the beliefs and constructs we see the world through.

Most resources out there are masculine driven: Action, strategy, not-enoughness.

Not here.

We're focusing on the inner world and leaning into the feminine first then encouraging action from there.

I hope any action you feel inspired to take is based on what you feels best for you.

Not what the world says you should do.

As always, change takes time.

Marianne Williamson says in A Return to Love:

“When you meet anyone, remember it is a holy encounter. As you see him, he will see yourself. As you treat him, you will treat yourself. As you think of him, he will think of yourself…”

TLDR: We can only receive that which we’re able to see.

Makes sense.

Someone who's defensive and judgmental would struggle to feel safe in love and openness.

Otherwise they'd be loving and open to begin with. 😬

This beckons to the "Love thy neighbor" sentiment.

When we act with kindness and openness most people return that in kind.

They feel safe to do so.

You rule your own kingdom.

That doesn't mean we have to allow anyone and everyone into our lives.

Think of your inner world as a kingdom.

As ruler of your kingdom you set the requirements for who can cross the drawbridge.

And if someone can't rise to the standards you set?

You can choose to not let them in.

Setting boundaries for ourselves when it comes to relationships helps us cultivate that good energy.

When we feel safe, we can show up how we want to.

When we show up a certain way we subconsciously invite people to show up the same way.

How we act is in our control.

What we allow or don’t allow into our world is in our control.

How others act and react isn’t in our control.
