#014. [Monthly Intake] Why Frustration Builds
|
Hello Reader, (reading time : 5 minutes) Imagine this: you’re coming home after a long day at work. It’s nearly 9 p.m., and you’re just hoping there’s something ready to eat or that your partner has taken care of dinner. All you want to do is relax… But as you step inside, you find the kitchen dark and empty. The only light in the house is from the TV, where your partner is either watching a show or playing a game. Frustration starts to bubble up—sound familiar? You’re not alone; this scenario drives many people crazy. You know this can’t keep happening. You try bringing it up, but your partner just doesn’t "get it." For them, it’s downtime, while for you, living together means sharing responsibilities, like meal prep and household tasks. Resentment is building, and you know it’s a red flag—but what can you do? I’ll dive into this issue and more in today’s newsletter. " NON REACTION IS NOT WEAKNESS BUT STRENGTH. ANOTHER WORD FOR NON REACTION IS FORGIVENESS. " A New Earth, Eckhart Tolle Living with a partner naturally comes with moments of frustration. Daily challenges like tiredness, overwhelming times, and a long list of tasks make it easy for irritation to slip in. If ignored, frustration can build up and turn into resentment, but it doesn’t have to. This month, I want you to get practical, actionable value from this issue of the newsletter. Below are some simple, effective tips you can apply whenever frustration toward your partner arises. Write these down, hang them on the fridge, and make them part of your routine. 💡 Do you need help navigating this kind of conversation? If your partner struggles to listen or if you feel unheard, consider scheduling a Clarity Call for personalized support. Sometimes, having a third party can make all the difference in helping each partner feel truly understood.

Ps2: C. participated in the previous version of the program Self-Mastery, because she struggled with managing her anger on a daily basis. No matter what she tried, her emotions were taking over, beginning to damage her relationships with her partner and family. What about you? Are you ready to take the first step toward creating the relationship you truly deserve? Last Note: I reached out to Stephanie from Firefly Scout a couple of weeks ago after reading one of her articles that truly moved me. As you may know, my first big insight came in 2016 during a retreat in Italy. Stephanie’s writing took me back through my journey of discovering my own light, and I can’t express enough how this has positively transformed all of my relationships. I highly recommend this article "The Power of Time Autonomy: Why Pushing Drains You and Pulling Expands You." It’s a powerful read on how shifting from a “push” mentality to one of alignment can make a huge difference in how we feel and accomplish our goals. Read the article here. |

Hello Reader, There was a time when I believed that the more I performed and perfected every detail, the better my life would be. But somewhere along the way, I realized that this constant drive was eating me up from the inside. (I'll share more about this later if you want...).
