Emotional intelligence in relationships isn't about never getting triggered or staying calm through every disagreement. It's about what you do when your nervous system is activated and your partner's sitting across from you feeling the same way. The couples who make it aren't the ones who avoid conflict. They're the ones who can notice when they're slipping into defense mode, when they're about to make their partner wrong to make themselves right. They catch themselves mid-sentence and redirect.

🫵😔to anybody seeing this having grown up in this economy, you know that it’s more than about JUST having a job! It’s about years of watching your parents struggle with finances and feeling absolutely helpless in your circumstances. 😭please please please never give up on chasing the desires of your heart. You never know what’s truly possible when you put yourself out there! I’m rooting on all of you always! 🫶#jobhunting #youthunemployment #spendthedaywithme #teen
