Let’s be real — most people aren’t emotionally unavailable... they’re just emotionally unaware.
In this episode, we stop sugarcoating and start spotlighting the unconscious patterns running your life. If you’ve ever found yourself doom-scrolling at 2am, blowing up over “nothing,” or chasing the same dead-end relationship dynamic in a different body — it’s not bad luck. It’s unprocessed emotional programming.
We’re pulling back the curtain on:
Why your nervous system is quietly calling the shots (and how it’s screwing up your love life)
The black-out effect: how triggers hijack your brain and make you forget who TF you are
What to do when your trauma response is disguised as “just being chill”
Why ghosting hurts so much — and how to stop outsourcing your self-worth to strangers
The actual reason you keep dating the same person in a different outfit
This is your wake-up call: if you're not tracking your triggers, they're tracking you.
And the only way out... is in.
👉 If you’re tired of self-sabotage disguised as “just how I am,” hit play. Then grab a journal. You're gonna need it.
