This episode explores the ways childhood trauma survivors often feel left out in friendships and social situations, and how those early family patterns show up in adult connections.

Topics include:

• Struggling to “jump in” during conversations
• Starting friendships but pulling away quickly
• Feeling “too much” or too intense for others
• How family modeling shapes social shame
• Inner child work and dialoguing prompts for healing

Join us for an honest, compassionate conversation on finding belonging and becoming more comfortable in your own skin.
