Episode description
Despite a horrible childhood, Alena is remarkably happy. With a career she loves, a healthy son, and a brilliant co-parenting relationship, she feels like she has it all. Some of her friends and family, however, think differently; they tell Alena she needs a romantic partner. This is where Renee comes in. Alena comes to the podcast to ask if she is missing something. Is it possible that her unresolved trauma is being repressed and denied? Is she avoiding intimate relationships because of the trauma? Are her friends and family right? Renee helps her answer these questions and more in an upbeat episode that answers the question, "Is a romantic partner necessary for a truly happy life?"
