Send us a text You didn"t become selfish. You became self-honouring. What if being called “selfish” isn’t an insult, but a sign you’re finally choosing yourself? In this episode, we explore the powerful shift from self-abandonment to self-honouring in relationships, through separation and during divorce. If you’ve been made to feel guilty for setting boundaries, prioritising your needs, or no longer being easily controlled, this is your reminder: You didn’t become selfish.  You became self-honouring. You became sovereign. Listen to hear:The difference between selfishness and self-responsibilityHow guilt and manipulation show up (louder, stronger) when you start honouring yourselfWhat self-honouring actually looks like in real life (especially in divorce and reorganising life afterwards) This is a reclamation. Of your needs. Your boundaries. Your peace. Because selfish? Maybe it’s sacred.
