Thanks to everyone for visiting during Eric Maisel’s recent visit. We loved hearing both the public and private comments.

By now, hopefully you’re starting to realize how much your own internal thoughts influence your external actions and contribute to however things seem to be going with “the other woman”.  Here’s so more food for thought….

Something that gets in the way of improving your relationship with the other woman is judgment.  We all want to look like we have our act together.  We all want to be liked.  No matter where you are on the spectrum of partnership with the mother or stepmother in your life, judgment is bound to raise it’s ugly head.

One of the keys to improving your relationship with each other is owning your own shit.  You know, admitting to the parts of you that help keep things cantankerous and conflict-ridden.  Surely this current state of affairs is ALL HER FAULT!

But maybe not.

We invite you to take a close-up look at the hamster churning out thoughts on the hamster wheel of your brain by taking our Own Your Own Shit Sample Quiz.
