You’ve been praised for being strong.
Independent.
The one who always figures it out.
But what if your self-reliance isn’t a personality trait—
what if it’s a trauma response?
In this episode of The Last Generation, we dig into the truth behind hyper-independence—how childhood trauma, emotional neglect, and attachment wounds can wire us to believe we’re safer alone. You’ll hear real-life reflections from Ashes to Flame, and learn why the very behaviors that once kept you safe may now be keeping you stuck.
If you've ever said, “I’m fine,” when you're falling apart…
If asking for help feels dangerous or foreign…
This episode is for you.
This isn’t about judgment—it’s about healing.
Let’s unpack the armor.
