How do I know if this relationship is GOOD for me… or if it's quietly draining me?
How do I know if this relationship is GOOD for me… or if it's quietly draining me?

Lately, I’ve been having a lot of conversations with people about relationships — romantic ones, friendships, family bonds — and one question keeps coming up:


“How do I know if this relationship is GOOD for me… or if it's quietly draining me?”


In my book, The Intimacy Tree, I talk about something I call a De-flationship — that slow leak in a connection that leaves you repeating the same arguments, feeling emotionally disconnected, or trying to “fix” it without understanding what’s broken. It’s like a relationship virus that weakens intimacy over time, even when two people genuinely care about each other.


I wrote this book because I’ve seen how often we feel something is off, but don’t have the language, the tools, or the framework to understand it — let alone heal it. And trust me, you are not alone in that.


The Intimacy Tree breaks intimacy down into five clear principles and gives you a powerful level-setting guide to help you identify where things are strong… and where the connection needs support. It’s real, it’s practical, and it’s designed to help you deepen your relationship with yourself first — and then with the people you love.


If you’re curious, struggling, healing, or simply wanting to grow in your relationships, I truly believe this book will speak to you.


If you’re ready to deepen your overstanding of intimacy, strengthen your connections, or level-set relationships in a completely new way…
