Over the past decade, I ended five long-term relationships.

And each time, I convinced myself I was better off alone.

But what I didn’t realize back then was this:

That my relationships didn’t work wasn’t about my partners.

It wasn’t even really about me.

It was unresolved childhood trauma, quietly hijacking my gut feelings, sabotaging my relationships, and shaping how I showed up in love.

In today’s video, I want to uncover how early emotional wounds act like a hidden puppet master in our relationships…

What’s truly behind your attachment style…

And how you can finally break the cycle of painful patterns and partners that never feel safe.

Ready for some real “aha” moments?
