In this episode, we're peeling back the layers of how childhood trauma, emotional abandonment, and survival mode shaped the way we showed up in love.

We discuss what happens when the woman becomes the provider, the protector, and the emotional anchor until she doesn't recognize herself anymore.

This is a raw conversation about inner child wounds, mismatched roles, and the resentment that builds when softness doesn't feel safe. We unpack how our pasts played out in our partnership, and how we're unlearning those patterns in real time.

If you've ever felt like the strong one who's secretly breaking... this one's for you.

Everyone talks about healing like it’s a glow-up.

Like you wake up one day with perfect boundaries, green smoothies, and a healed nervous system.

But no one really talks about the nights you’re crying on the bathroom floor, questioning if you were the toxic one…

Or the mornings you’re staring at a text you could send, but don’t…

This episode is about the work no one saw. The version of us that broke apart. The time we spent in silence, questioning everything.

And the work… the slow, humiliating, beautiful, un-Instagrammable work… of figuring out who we actually are without each other.

And what happened when we finally met again, this time as different people.

In this episode, we're pulling back the curtain on the moment everything changed. We talk about the shift, emotionally, mentally, relationally, that led to science, separation, and the unraveling of what we thought we had.

It wasn't one fight. It wasn't just a bad season. It was a slow buildup of everything unspoken, finally demanding to be dealt with.

This is the part no one saw. The part that hurt the most.

And the part that, in hindsight, might've saved us.
