Is Porn An Acceptable Outlet For Fun And Fantasy?
Morning friends, So glad you enjoyed Allison Cook’s guest post last week. I’m going to be inviting some of my other colleagues to share with you what they are learning about having good boundaries, healthy self-respect, good self-care, and how to recognize controlling relationships.

My Adult Children Blame Me Because I Refuse To Apologize

Navigating A Separation Wisely
Morning friends, Summer is well underway but it feels different this year doesn’t it? We’re in the midst of history-changing moments and my hope is that it’s creating change for the better.

Using Words Not Anger To Have Good Boundaries
Morning friends, I’m in a hotel room in California this week, working hard to put my book The Emotionally Destructive Relationship in audiobooks. I’d appreciate your prayers.

Morning friends, Can you believe we are almost done with January? How are you doing in this new decade? I’ve begun implementing some small habit changes that have started to show some real results.

How Do I Get My Husband To Take Responsibility For His Anger?

Is Numbed Out Better Than Feeling Sad?
Morning friends, I’ve recently started taking my 3 granddaughters, ages 9, 8, and 7 hiking over Christmas vacation. Our first hike was short, about 1 and a half miles and easy.
