Breaking Up With Someone You Still Love

Why Smart, Strong Women Stay Too Long in the Wrong Relationship

If you've ever found yourself wondering why you stayed in a relationship longer than you should have, give this episode a listen. It's easy to judge from the outside when we can see our friends in our relationship that isn't serving them. And it's equally easy to judge ourselves, when we know our relationship isn't right for us, but sometimes we stay. But relationships are rarely that simple. In this episode, I explore why intelligent, self-aware, capable women often find themselves staying in relationships even when part of them knows something isn't right. We'll unpack some of the common myths around relationship decisions and explore how our beliefs, emotions, and even our neurology can influence the choices we make. In this episode, we discuss: • Why staying isn't a sign of weakness • The myths we tell ourselves about relationships and self-worth • How the brain becomes attached to familiarity and hope • Why grief often keeps us stuck longer than we'd like • The role subconscious beliefs play in our relationship choices • Why knowing better doesn't always mean doing better • How self-trust is built one decision at a time If this episode resonates with you, I'd love to hear your thoughts.

Is This the Right Person? How to Trust Yourself in Early Dating

At some point in almost every relationship, you’re going to ask yourself: is this the right person for me? And especially in the early stages of dating, that question can feel confusing. You might be weighing up attraction, overthinking your feelings, or wondering if there’s someone better out there. In this episode, I talk through how to actually navigate that question, without rushing, overthinking, or ignoring what your intuition is telling you. Because not all doubt means something is wrong… and not all attraction means something is right. We talk about: *  the difference between “maybe there’s someone better” and “something feels off” *  how dating apps can create the illusion of endless options  *  why we’re often drawn to what feels familiar (even when it’s not good for us)  *  attraction vs compatibility ... and why both matter  *  what to do if you don’t feel an instant spark, but you like the person  *  how anxious attachment can make calm, healthy connections feel unfamiliar  *  the signs to pay attention to early on You don’t have to rush this. People meet people every day, fall in love every day, and also walk away from relationships every day. There’s no shortage of opportunity. What matters is choosing something that actually feels right for you.

Situationships: Why They Hurt So Much and How to Stop Settling for Uncertainty

Situationships have become more prevalent in modern dating, sitting in a grey zone between casual dating and a committed relationship. You might spend time together, feel emotionally invested and hope for a future, but there’s no real clarity, consistency, or commitment. And often, the vagueness of it all can be deeply confusing and painful. In this episode of Living Truly, Truly Living, I explore why situationships happen, how to recognise if you're in one and how to protect your self-worth when relationships stay undefined. You’ll also learn how to break the cycle of settling for uncertainty and start choosing relationships built on clarity, intention and mutual effort. Because the right relationship will never require you to silence your needs or live in constant doubt or anxiety.

Breaking Up With Someone You Still Love

In this episode of Living Truly, Truly Living, we’re talking about why letting go can feel harder than staying in a relationship that’s confusing, dysregulating, or emotionally unsafe. We also talk through the reasons why love alone is often not enough to make a relationship work. For people with anxious or disorganised attachment, leaving goes against everything that's makes up the nervous system. Your wiring tells you to hold on, to keep trying, to keep fixing, even when the relationship is costing you your peace, your safety, or your sense of self. In this episode, I explore: * Why anxious attachment makes walking away feel so difficult * How your attachment blueprint links love to safety * Why emotions like love, longing, and anxiety can hijack your decisions * The difference between feelings and choices and why letting go isn’t a feeling * How grief fits into the process (even when you know leaving is the right decision) * Why loving someone doesn’t mean you should stay * How to hold boundaries when everything in your body wants to go back If you’re currently in a relationship that isn’t working, freshly broken up, or worried about leaving someone you still love. this episode is for you.  Letting go doesn’t mean you stop loving someone. It means you choose yourself over and over again, even when it’s hard. Follow bindytaylorcoach [https://www.instagram.com/bindytaylorcoach/] on Instagram.
