You are who you meet, as well as what you eat!

Feel happier, more peaceful, more joy, and less anxious or depressed!

Happiness can be found when you consciously lose a few toxic people.

The people we surround ourselves with, not just socially, but in every sphere: work, leisure, and beyond are the architects of our daily realities and future trajectories. They have a huge influence on our personality, happiness, and health.

Ever found yourself in the presence of someone whose negativity feels like sludge? Conversely, have you basked in the glow of someone whose positivity is contagious, and you just laugh a lot? You feel like the best you!

The truth is, that our chosen companions wield immense influence, whether they're colleagues, friends, or acquaintances. Negative vibes can drag us into a downward spiral, while positive connections serve as catalysts for growth and joy in all areas of our lives. Negative attitudes trigger anxiety, stress, and sucky feelings for me.

I have changed as we do with the loss of a parent, I practice choosing from self-respect. and love:

As in, I have so little need to drink alcohol at home, it had become a habit because those around me did it.

I also have a different, higher value of my time, energy, and giving, So I'm editing my life. I take charge of who I'm around, and when I drink alcohol wherever I can, I give deeply to the ones who are there for me too.

I no longer take on any client or job, and every invite to donate my services unless it feels light.

I no longer chase, I may message a couple of times if I truly care, but then I let go.

I see so many great, loving people falling into the people pleasing, giving too many 'F's, feeling obligated, or responsible for so many things that aren't theirs to take on. 

It's time to take charge of our interpersonal landscape. Setting boundaries and pruning toxic ties isn't selfish—it's a radical act of self-love. By prioritising uplifting connections, we affirm our inherent worth and safeguard our mental and emotional sanctity, both in and out of the workplace.

Embracing positivity isn't about ignoring life's rough patches; it's about forging alliances with those who offer solace, encouragement, and unwavering support in every facet of our lives.

When we engage with uplifting and supportive people, we experience a profound improvement in our overall well-being.

Positive connections provide emotional support, encouragement, and a sense of belonging, all of which are vital for maintaining good mental and emotional health. They can help reduce stress, anxiety, and feelings of loneliness, while also boosting self-esteem and resilience in the face of life's challenges.

Moreover, positive relationships can have tangible effects on our physical health. Research shows that strong social connections are linked to lower rates of chronic diseases, improved immune function, and even increased longevity.

In essence, prioritising positive connections in our lives doesn't just contribute to our happiness—it actively promotes our holistic wellness, nurturing both our mind and body for a healthier, more fulfilling life.

I laugh at myself for the lack of wine bottles in the recycle bin, how could I have slipped into regular home drinking, knowing the after-effects for me which are anxiety? I love having a glass of wine when I'm out, it feels like such a treat.

• I love working with beautiful humans where the session flows by so quickly, that I don't check the time. I can't wait to see them.

• I relax choosing when to fly to Wellington to see my boys when to go out with the girls, and when to have cosy nights in with Craig.

• I laugh taking my soup to Craig's dads once a week to sit with him and watch The Chase, just as I did with my own mum.

• I have deep, quality time with friends, I take time off to support them as they do me.

It took a lot of life, losses, and lessons, but I love having autonomy, and agency over my life. Well, living in the practice of that.

So, pause babe. Are the ones you show up for igniting your passions or extinguishing your flame? Remember, you possess the power to curate your tribe. Choose consciously, and embark on a journey of transformation. Your happiness and fulfilment await in every sphere of your existence.

Is it time for you too? Time to take charge of your interpersonal landscape?

The first step is accepting that most of the people you spend time with is your choice, it's up to you.

Become brave, babe, become yourself.

Love, love Caron xx
