Wellness & Co.

This week I shared a story I’ve never fully shared before. It’s out now to read.

If you’ve ever found yourself wondering, “Why do I feel so disconnected from myself?” or “How did I get here?” this story might resonate… and you may end up with lipstick on your mirror too.

Check it out on our blog.

With love,

Sometimes the relationship isn’t the only thing asking to heal 💛

Sometimes the individual underneath it needs support too.

That realization has been shaping what we’ve been building behind the scenes at Wellness & Co.

That last part can hit your right in the feels, but it’s so true. 💔 Relationships hold a lot of power in our lives.

And this is precisely why, at Wellness & Co., we care so deeply about relationships.

So much of the way we move through the world begins in relationship.

The way we communicate.
The way we handle conflict.
The way we trust ourselves.
The way we love.
The way we stay.
The way we leave.

For over a decade, our work has centered around helping couples repair connection and heal painful relational patterns.

And lately, we’ve felt called toward another layer of this work too.

A deeper conversation around relational trauma, emotional harm, attachment wounds, self-trust, and the relationship patterns that quietly shape people long before they ever walk into couples therapy.

We’ve been building something behind the scenes that reflects that expansion and we are really excited to share more on June 1st.

Validating someone you disagree with can feel like letting them pick the music for the car ride when it’s a genre you’re reeeally not into. You might worry that by turning up the volume on their feelings, you’re somehow endorsing every lyric. But here’s the truth - validation isn’t actually about agreeing.

Here's what it IS about...and why it's important: https://wellnessandco.org/2025/01/24/how-to-validate-when-you-disagree/

As the trees shed their leaves, the days get shorter, and everyone in Maryland collectively forgets how to drive a car in the face of a smattering of flurries, many people notice shifts in their mood and energy levels.
