From a Girl's Girl

Don't Let Your Ex Choose Your Next Partner 29.06.2026 15Min.

Have you ever met someone who felt amazing simply because they did everything your ex didn’t?Maybe they communicate better. Maybe they’re more affectionate. Maybe they’re emotionally available. Suddenly, it feels like you’ve finally found “the one.”But what if what you’re feeling isn’t compatibility… it’s relief?In this episode, I talk about how the pain from our previous relationships can quietly influence who we choose next. Sometimes the qualities we were deprived of become the only things we evaluate, causing us to overlook compatibility, values, boundaries, and the bigger picture.I explore how deprivation can cloud our judgment.

Be a Shameless Lover Girl! 08.06.2026 13Min.

Society makes many women feel as though being a lover girl is something to be ashamed of. We're told wanting love is a distraction. That yearning for connection makes us naive. And after heartbreak, we're often encouraged to become detached, nonchalant, and emotionally unavailable in the name of self-preservation. In this episode I talk about embracing your quality of being a lover girl and not seeing it as a curse that always leads to heartbreak. If you're a lover who has been embarrassed for wanting love, judged for loving wholeheartedly or pressured to become something you're not in order to avoid getting hurt...this episode is for you, Lover Girl.

Healing Doesn't Make You Unrejectable 25.05.2026 13Min.

In this episode, I talk about how healing culture can sometimes make us feel like we need to become “better” before we deserve love.Many of us start healing after heartbreak, disappointment, or unhealthy relationships, but somewhere along the way, healing can quietly become tied to the hope of finally being chosen correctly.We begin believing that if we heal enough, love will finally stay. If we become emotionally intelligent enough, self-aware enough, feminine enough, disciplined enough, then maybe we’ll finally experience the relationship we’ve been waiting for.But what happens when healing becomes less about peace and more about preparing for a future reward?Maybe healing was never meant to make us perfect. Maybe it was meant to help us abandon ourselves less while experiencing life as human beings

Is Space in a Relationship a Bad Thing? 11.05.2026 13Min.

In today’s episode of From a Girl’s Girl, I talk about space in relationships and why hearing the words “I need space” can feel so triggering and anxiety-inducing for so many people. I explore the difference between healthy and unhealthy space, how people process conflict differently, and why understanding your conflict language is just as important as understanding your love language. This episode unpacks emotional regulation during conflict, the importance of communication and reassurance, and how space can sometimes create clarity instead of confusion. I also discuss how to respond when someone asks for space without abandoning yourself emotionally, while learning how to ground yourself instead of reacting from fear, panic, or overwhelm. Because sometimes space is not rejection... sometimes it is reflection, regulation, and an attempt to return to the relationship calmer, clearer, and more intentional.

Entitlement vs Knowing Your Worth & Having Standards 13.04.2026 12Min.

There is a thin line between knowing your worth and having standards, and a lot of us blur that line without even realising it. In this episode, I unpack the difference between standards, expectations, and entitlement, especially in the talking stage. We explore how the way we communicate our desires can completely change how they are received, and why some standards are rooted in self-worth...while others come from ego or past experiences.This episode is an invitation to reflect, not judge because sometimes, what we think is self-worth might actually be something else.

Maybe That's Not Your Type...It's Your Pattern 23.03.2026 15Min.

We always hear people talk about a "type"...but what if what you've been calling your type isn't actually your type at all? In this episode, I unpack the difference between attraction and alignment, and how your dating patterns might be rooted in familiarity rather than intention. I talk about why physical attraction alone isn't enough, how self-awareness shapes your standards, and why discernment is one of the most important skills you can have in dating. If you've ever found yourself attracted to the same kind of person, even when it doesn't work out...this episode is for you.Because the goal isn't just to have a type, it's to choose people who actually align.

Are Your Beliefs Sabotaging Your Relationships? 10.03.2026 17Min.

In this episode, I explore the concept of self-fulfilling prophecies in relationships and how the stories we carry about ourselves in love can shape our dating experiences. Long before we meet someone, many of us already have an internal narrative about who we are in relationships. Some people believe they’re never the one who gets chosen, others fear that commitment will cost them their independence, and some expect relationships to end in disappointment. These beliefs often operate quietly in the background, but they can influence how we behave, what we tolerate, and how we interpret our partner’s actions.In this episode I discuss how self-concept influences relationship patterns, why two people can date the same type of partner but have very different experiences, and how self-fulfilling prophecies can keep us stuck in cycles we don’t fully understand.This episode invites you to reflect on the beliefs you may be carrying into your relationships and how they might be shaping the outcomes you experience.

You're Not in Love. You're Attached 20.02.2026 15Min.

Have you ever looked at another woman’s relationship and instantly thought, “She’s settling,” yet struggled to see the same patterns in your own life?In this episode I explore the uncomfortable gap between what we know and what we actually do in love. I talk attachment, hope, romantic delusion, the “future version” of him you’re dating, and why chaos can feel like chemistry. If you’ve ever convinced yourself that bare minimum is love... this episode is for you.IG: fromagirlsgirl

You're Allowed to Ask "Why Me" 02.02.2026 13Min.

We’re often told that when something painful happens, we must immediately find meaning. To stay positive. To believe everything happens for a reason. But what if asking “why me?” isn’t a lack of faith...what if it’s honesty?In this episode, I open up about my recent painful health journey and the emotional toll of uncertainty. I talk about illness, unanswered questions, and the quiet pressure to be strong, grateful, and hopeful when your body and mind are overwhelmed.I explore how toxic positivity can make pain heavier, why constantly searching for meaning can feel invalidating, and how acceptance is not the same as giving up. This conversation isn’t about turning suffering into a lesson; it’s about allowing yourself to be human.If you’ve ever felt guilty for struggling, tired of being told to “just stay positive,” or stuck in a season that doesn’t make sense yet, this episode is for you. You don’t need answers right now. You don’t need to find the lesson. You’re allowed to sit with the questions.IG: fromagirlsgirl

Dating the Same Person in a Different Body & Different Name 14.01.2026 12Min.

Happy New Year, guys! In this episode I talk about old patterns, why they resurface, why you keep dating the same person, just different body and name, how these moments test our growth, and what healing really looks like in real life. I share my personal experiences with emotionally unavailable men, anxious attachment, and the moment I finally understood that attraction does not equal alignment.This year isn't just about new goals and vision boards; it's also about new responses. Because if the year changes but the patterns don't, nothing really changesJust because something or someone familiar shows up again doesn't mean you're meant to go back. Sometimes it's simply life asking you, "Do you still see yourself the same way?"IG: fromagirlsgirl

December Romance: Do's, Don'ts, Flings and festive Feelings 19.12.2025 17Min.

December romance is often romanticised as fun and flirtatious, but for many, the festive season comes with anxiety, disappointment, ghosting, and hard relationship truths. In this episode I unpack the realities of December romance: the unspoken rules, the festive personas we adopt, and why so many connections formed in December struggle to survive January. From premediated flings driven by fear of loneliness, to being the partner who doesn't get chosen for the holiday, this episode explores how scarcity mindset, alcohol, expectations, and festive pressure shape our dating decisions.

December is a Lifestyle, but your Goals Still Matter 01.12.2025 12Min.

It's December! A whole lifestyle in South Africa, but before the vibes sweep us away, let's talk about why your 2026 goals should be set before January. In this episode, I talk about why the best time to set your goals isn't January, it's right now. December comes with vibes, chaos, bonuses, and a whole lifestyle of its own, but it's also the month where we lose momentum without even realising it. I share how planning my year before January completely shifted my 2025, how my vision board came to life, and why strategy matters more than aesthetics. Whether you had an amazing year or a painful one, this episode reminds you that your timeline is scared, your pace is valid, and you are not behind.

Build Yourself Before You Build with Him 18.11.2025 15Min.

Too many women give up their dreams, lower their standards, or lose themselves trying to be chosen by men. In this episode, I talk about the importance of building your identity, your dreams, and your foundation before you build with a man. From societal pressure to timelines, to women abandoning their goals for relationships, I explore why prioritising yourself isn't selfish, but necessary. I dive into self-worth, standards, financial independence, emotional grounding, and why being single is no longer seen as a "tragedy". It's a reminder that men are additions, not definitions, and that the life you build for yourself will always be your greatest power.

Choosing Yourself in Friendships Too 27.10.2025 14Min.

We often talk about knowing our worth in romantic relationships, setting boundaries, walking away from mistreatment, and refusing to shrink ourselves just to be loved. But what happens when we forget to carry the same self-worth into our friendships?In this episode, I explore 'selective people pleasing' - when you've healed enough to have boundaries in relationships but still struggle to choose yourself in friendships. If you're tired of performing, overextending, or being the only one trying..this episode is for you. IG: fromagirlsgirl

Being Wanted 07.10.2025 14Min.

Have you ever entertained someone you knew you weren't compatible with, just because it felt good to be wanted? Especially after a dry season where no one was pursuing or chasing you?In this episode, I unpack the intoxicating feeling of being desired and how the need for attention can lead us into place holder relationships. I talk about why attention feels like validation, how it can blur our judgment, and the emotional labour that comes from settling for someone who simply filled a dry season,IG: fromagirlsgirl

Chasing The Woman of Your Dreams 17.09.2025 11Min.

Remember when you were a little girl, and there was a woman you admired, maybe she lived in your neighbourhood, or maybe you saw her on TV. You admired her style, her career, the way she carried herself, and the life she created for herself. Looking at her, you saw a glimpse of your own future. Do you remember her, the woman of your dreams?Society often tells us a woman's true success is measured by whether she gets married or has children. So, many of us grow up chasing 'the man of our dreams' adjusting our behavior to fit what we think he would want or approve of. Along the way, we lose sight of the WOMAN OF OUR DREAMS; the version of ourselves we once imagined becoming. In this episode, I talk about how to reconnect with the vision of the woman of your dreams, and why it's time to chase her, instead of the man of your dreams IG: fromagirlsgirl

It's Not Your Loss: Not Being Fought for Doesn't Mean You're Not Enough 28.08.2025 14Min.

When someone ghosts you, walks away, or doesn't fight to keep you in their life, it's easy to feel like you've taken a loss. You start questioning your worth, wondering what's wrong with you, and comparing yourself to people whose partners "fought for them". But the here's the truth: their lack of effort is not a reflection of your value. In this episode, I break down why not being fought for doesn't mean you're not enough, how social media fuels this false narrative, and how to reclaim you power when someone doesn't show up. It's not your loss...it's their loss.

Is Emotional Safety a Real Thing? 12.08.2025 14Min.

Are emotional needs important in a relationship? In this episode I explore what emotional safety means, how it impacts intimacy, femininity, and self-worth. If you've ever felt unseen, unheard, or like you're walking on eggshells with your partner, this episode will help you understand why.

When Choosing Yourself Isn't a Choice 28.07.2025 13Min.

Hi guys! I know I have been MIA for a while. Life got hectic with a new job and a big move, but I'm back. In this episode I talk about how many of us were forced to choose ourselves, not out of self-love, but because the people we chose or wanted didn't choose us back. When you are discarded or replaced, choosing yourself can feel more like survival than self-worth, and that can keep you stuck in victim mode, chasing validation anywhere it shows up.
