The Quiet Killer of Connection

Contempt in relationships - let’s not dance around it.

It creeps in through sarcasm, name-calling, the quiet little digs you tell yourself don't matter.

It’s not always loud, but it’s corrosive. It eats trust. It drains connection. Slowly, but surely.

None of us are immune.

The real question is - do you stay there, or do you shift?

The antidote is simple, but not always easy:

Gratitude.

Appreciation.

Choosing to see what’s good.

Choosing respect even when anger is burning through you.

There’s strength, not shame, in recognising when we’re off-track - and choosing to realign with what builds love rather than erodes it.

Relationships are for sure your greatest vehicle of growth.
