A young woman recently contacted me to ask about a new love interest. They had been talking, on and off, for less than a month – and she was anxious to know if he was really attracted to her and if she should trust him. She was, she concluded, incredibly confused – whilst I was […]
Why are we so resistant to anything we don’t want to hear, where our love life is concerned? Why do we choose to be blind to obvious warning signs when it comes to matters of the heart, in a way that we wouldn’t be with other areas of our life? These are questions I have […]
I am not looking for love and I am not subjecting myself to the rigours of dating sites – but I know plenty of hopefuls who are. And I have been shown pictures of potentially suitable matches… and they all look the bloody same to me! Preened men with deliberately coiffed hair (that is supposed […]
If something is to empower us, or lead toward our empowerment, it has to be honest. And by honest I don’t mean passive-aggressive or downright nasty; if someone snarls at you, “do you know what your problem is? You can’t take the truth!” they don’t have your greater good at heart.

“I really believed that we had a connection – and he said that he felt it too. But now he’s blowing hot and cold and no longer seems so interested. What has changed his mind, and how do I reconnect with him?” This is something I have been asked more times than I can count, […]
I wrote this blog because I recognise just how much conflict and unnecessary pain and drama is created by emotional immaturity; it is entirely disempowering, and yet can so easily be addressed… leading to a much happier, healthier, more productive life. If you are at the mercy of someone who is emotionally immature, you will […]
What is it, with us women? We often struggle to cut our losses and quit, even when all the signs are pointing in the same miserable direction! There is something within us that causes us to ignore or dismiss the most obvious red flags whilst grabbing onto the smallest reason to keep hope alive. I […]
It is a phrase I have heard many, many times – and it is always a lie! Think about it: NOTHING good EVER happens to me. Nothing? Ever? The last time this miserable phrase assaulted my ears was around 2 months ago, courtesy of someone who was having the kind of uncomfortable problems we all […]
