About this listen

 Welcome to the podcast where we unpack what really happens after the heartbreak, behind the mask, and beneath the surface. Whether you’re navigating trauma bonds, unpacking toxic cycles, rebuilding trust, or searching for clarity in your mental health journey — you’re not alone.
Each episode, we explore real conversations about:
  • Healing from past relationships
  • DBT therapy, EMDR, ADHD, PTSD, and depression
  • Narcissistic abuse, intimacy disorders, and emotional regulation
  • Family dynamics, suicidal ideation, and how to pick the right therapist
  • And the unspoken question: “Who do I even tell?”


We blend clinical insights with lived experience, bring on mental health experts and special guests, and hold space for the truth you’ve been carrying too long.
If you’re ready to turn pain into purpose — and conversation into connection — this is your home.

    Episode 10: The Cost of Not Healing
    Nov 19 2025

    Avoiding healing doesn’t mean we’re not hurting — it just means we’re still carrying it.
    In this season finale, we zoom out to look at how unresolved pain shapes every part of our life. From the relationships we choose to the way we communicate, protect, or lash out — what we don’t heal shows up anyway. But healing doesn’t have to be perfect. It just has to begin.

    Episode 9: When You’re the Avoidant One
    Nov 19 2025

    Let’s talk about the other side of emotional disconnection.
    In this episode, we explore what avoidant attachment really feels like — not just cold or distant, but overwhelmed, overstimulated, and scared to lose control. If you’ve ever pulled away when things got serious, struggled to be vulnerable, or found yourself shutting down instead of opening up — this one’s for you.

    Episode 8: The Fear of Being Too Much
    Nov 19 2025

    Overexplaining. Oversharing. Feeling like you’re ‘too intense’ to be loved.
    In this episode, we unpack the emotional shame so many of us carry — and how that fear of being “too much” can sabotage connection. We talk through what overexpression looks like, why it shows up in relationships, and how healing begins when we feel safe to be seen and heard.
