Episode description

This episode explores why people stay stuck in harmful patterns, even when they know these behaviours hurt them. It shows how early experiences, like conditional love or unmet emotional needs, shape the stories we tell ourselves that can lead to shame, self-doubt, and unhealthy habits as adults. Using the example of a woman longing for a toxic relationship, it explains how these patterns often come from a deep need for love and validation. Healing involves changing these old stories, addressing emotional wounds, and learning self-compassion. By focusing on self-care instead of seeking approval from others, we can break free from these cycles and find true peace and self-worth.
