"By identifying the different events and personal triggers that disrupt your relationship, I will facilitate a relationship "redesign" that will help you gain the connection and tools to go on the emotional journey from volatility to versatility."

Transitions are part of every relationship.
A child becomes an adult.
A couple become parents.
A marriage ends.
A parent begins needing care.
A friendship changes after a major life event.
Every transition asks us to adjust.
The people who navigate these moments well aren't avoiding change. They're learning how to move through it with intention.

Instead of focusing on who's right or wrong, pause and ask yourself what is actually true today that wasn't true before....

Instead of focusing on who's right or wrong, pause and ask yourself what is actually true today that wasn't true before.

Maybe your children are older.
Maybe you've gone through a divorce.
Maybe illness, loss, retirement, or simply time has changed both of you.

When we stop resisting reality, we create space to build relationships that fit the lives we're living now.

"How do we rebuild trust?"

Redesign asks:

"Given everything that's changed, what kind of relationship do we need now?"

Sometimes trust has been damaged and needs repair.

Other times, the relationship itself has outgrown its old structure.

Knowing the difference can completely change the direction of your healing.

No relationship stays exactly the same.

Careers evolve. Children grow up. Priorities shift. Life asks us to adjust over and over again.

The strongest relationships aren't the ones that never change. They're the ones who learn how to change together.

How has one of your relationships evolved over the years?

Family patterns have a way of quietly following us.
The way conflict was handled.
The way affection was expressed.
The roles everyone played.
Until we understand those patterns, we often repeat them without realizing it.
Awareness isn't about blaming our families. It's about allowing ourselves to make different choices moving forward.

More young adults are living with their parents than at any point in recent history, and the reasons are far more complex than outdated stereotypes suggest.

From rising housing costs and student debt to changing family dynamics, today's economic reality is reshaping what adulthood looks like. While multigenerational living can offer financial relief and emotional support, it can also create challenges around independence, boundaries, and relationships.

I recently joined LAist alongside Business Insider real estate correspondent James Rodriguez to discuss why this trend is growing, how families can make it work, and what healthy communication looks like when multiple generations share a home.

Thank you to LAist for including me in this important conversation.

Have you noticed this shift among your own family or friends? I'd love to hear your thoughts.

Healing doesn't always mean returning to an earlier version of your relationship.

Life changes us. Experiences change us. Sometimes the healthiest path forward isn't trying to recreate what existed before, but accepting that the relationship now needs something different.

Repair helps us heal what happened.

Redesign helps us create what comes next.

That's often where lasting growth begins.

Many people spend years trying to repair a relationship that no longer works the way it once did. But sometimes the healthiest path isn't about returning to the past. It's about redesigning the relationship to better reflect who both people are today.

That doesn't always mean ending the relationship. It can mean creating new boundaries, improving communication, shifting expectations, or finding healthier ways to connect. Relationships evolve, and the way we care for them often needs to evolve too.

In my latest blog, I explore the difference between endlessly trying to "fix" a relationship and thoughtfully redesigning it so it can grow in a healthier direction.
