I spent far too many years of my life in toxic relationships with both men and women. I didn’t know my self worth or value and I allowed negative energy and poor treatment because I was unaware that I was worthy of more. When I began letting go of these people, the energy shifted in my life so that I could begin to call in an incredible partner and powerful, supportive women to my tribe. Below is a checklist for you. Consider these feelings and take a look at how your circle is filling you up or depleting you. If they don’t meet your requirements, then lovingly let go. Create a life so abundantly full of positive, supportive relationships that the others just fall to the side.

My tribe is:

• Loving

• Supportive

• Welcoming

• Not gossipy

• Thoughtful

• Engaging

• Interested in similar things

• Interested in different things

• Always challenging me to be better

• Shows up for important moments in my life

• Not jealous

• Regularly making an effort to spend quality time

• Positive

• Honest

• Hard working

• Emotionally available

• Willing to quietly hold space and listen to me

• Thoughtful about adding value to my life

• Consistently asking “How can I best support you?”

• Willing to accept me for who I am and honor my evolution
