My bread and butter are understanding human dynamics. Why? We all want to understand ourselves better and we want to connect with others in healthy ways. That's what my blog is dedicated to. And this post lays out my theory on what exactly a healthy relationship looks like compared to a toxic one. There are 4 themes that all relationships have and I list them on this post.

I caught this photo of two friends holding hands. Theyre that I work with and they are showing each other some love. I was just gushing all over. And I am so glad I got this photo when I did because that is exactly what this new post is about. Friendship...how important it is to have it and what it is like to lose it. I outline the grief that we often ignore from loss of friendships and some strategies on how to move on. If you've ever lost, broke up with, or got broken up with by a friend...this post is for you. Read and let me know what you think, if I missed anything, and if you would like to read more about friendships. I have more ideas and I think it's important to talk about. Cant wait to hear what yall have to say. :) #relate2shan #friendshipstatus #losingfriends #selfcare https://www.instagram.com/p/BvqQOYflOak/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1wo2x8q5zauwg

Rise and shine!!! It is Monday morning and I am proud to say that I finally finished my latest post from the Microaggressions series...The Analysis. It has been quite the cathartic journey, so long overdue (my bad) but well worth it. If you ever felt slighted or disrespected because of your race, gender, religion, sexual orientation, or just for being you (aka for no real reas ok n in general, this is the series for you. This series has my personal story with microaggressions, how I processed it, and what I did to deal with it. Writing these posts helped me so much and I hope they help you as well. Without further ado, check out the post here. https://www.relate2shan.com/what-did-i-just-experience-microaggressions-part-iii-the-analysis/ #relate2shan #microagressions #catharsis #selfcare #communitylove (at The Coffee Company) https://www.instagram.com/p/BvcPOkSFatV/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=9lhi7f3e8zdg

Coming out of a self care break, trying to practice what I preach. I took in nature right in the middle of the city and it was beautiful and much needed. Part II of the microagrressions will be posted tomorrow. This post will give you a little glance of my mind frame of the story I shared in Part I. Still personal but I hope that it is impactful and helps you on your journey called life. Blessings and I'll see you tomorrow. #relate2shan #blogginglife #selfcare #newpost #walkinpark (at Kenneth Hahn State Recreation Area) https://www.instagram.com/p/BtO-fWYlL4K/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=73db7albfhvb

So long #2021 . I wish I could say it was a blast but...well you know. It wasn't all bad though. You gave me a new lease on life and I for that, I will always appreciate you. Sure, it was nice cozying up at home for the last 2 years. But now, I think we need a break and see different people. I hope you understand. Because I'm moving on. So long 2020 and 2021. It's been real. I'll be living my best life fulfilling a promise to myself: build new and existing #relationships because #connectionsmatter. I'm already declaring that 2022 will be filled with a positive shift for us all. We just have to walk in step with this declaration. 2022 is the year of #shipsgoals, #community, and #comingtogether for #healing. #blessings #endscene ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ With that said, I am so happy to make #communitybuilding the vision for this year. And thank you for reading this post, it's part of my accountability check. I hope you join me and we walk this journey together...#stepbystep. #happynewyear2022 (at Los Angeles, California) https://www.instagram.com/relate2shan/p/CYH8-zhvO7b/?utm_medium=tumblr
