Stop saying something is wrong with your “picker” because you keep ending up with the wrong person. Focus on your “Thrower”!
Don’t ever let your ability to pick the wrong person be stronger then your ability to throw them back 💪🏾!

When I talk to clients about setting boundaries I like to use the following analogy: I tell them to imagine if you were not a person but a big beautiful fabulous mansion sitting on hundreds of acres. To look at you (as a mansion) people would assume you are very valuable...
However, when you don’t have boundaries, you are like a mansion that is beautiful and grand but do not have windows, doors, security or a gate. So anybody can get in and take advantage of you. People that you interact with will walk up to you (the mansion)...
Don’t knock on the door, walk in, come and go as they please, take what they want and then leave. They don’t have to respect any boundaries or rules because there are one. Setting and enforcing healthy boundaries and rules for yourself is the equivalent to adding a privacy...
