Cutting people off isn’t strength—It is a trauma response

Your ability to cut people off and self-isolate is not a skill you should be proud of—It is a trauma response Cutting people off and self-isolating may feel like a protective shield, but it is often rooted in unresolved or unhealed trauma and an inability to depend on others. While these behaviors seem like self-preservation, they end up reinforcing isolation and blocking meaningful connections. Confronting these patterns, seeking therapy, and nurturing supportive relationships can help break this unhealthy cycle. Plus, a simple act like planting a jasmine plant can symbolise the start of your journey towards emotional healing. Why do we cut people off and isolate?

When space speaks: What your workspace reveals about your value I’ve watched rooms betray talented people. Your workspace energy — how light moves, what sits on your desk, whether the door feels like an invitation — speaks about your value long before you say a word. This piece shows the small, fierce changes that reclaim authority and make the space echo what you already are. When you walk into your room, what does the workspace energy tell you about yourself — a throne or an afterthought? Are work spaces energies, not just desks? When I first started helping people rearrange rooms — not as an interior decorator but as a listener who watches how people live in places — I noticed a pattern. Rooms are not neutral. A desk that looks tired, a lamp that’s always off, a chair pushed under the table signal tiny, repeated refusals: “You don’t belong here,” they say in a different register. That’s not superstition; it’s a practice of attention. We orient oursel...
