🌱 Safe People Series – Week 4 – Why We Choose Unsafe Relationships

👉 This Week’s Focus
If we know something isn’t good for us, why do we still choose it? We’ll explore the deeper patterns and “false solutions” that keep us stuck—and how to begin shifting them.

--------------------------------

Have you ever found yourself wondering:

• Why do I keep choosing people who hurt me?
• Why am I drawn to relationships that don’t feel good?
• How can I tell who is truly safe—before I get emotionally invested?

This 7-week series is designed to help you answer those questions—and begin creating more honest, supportive, and fulfilling relationships.

Based on Safe People by Cloud & Townsend, we’ll explore how to recognize unsafe patterns (in others and in ourselves), understand why we repeat them, and learn what it looks like to build relationships rooted in trust, respect, and emotional safety.

Each week includes short video segments, guided reflection, and optional group discussion in a supportive, non-judgmental space.

--------------------------------
