We don’t talk about this enough — how trauma doesn’t just affect our romantic relationships, but our friendships too.

In this episode, I’m getting real and personal about how unresolved pain, fear of abandonment, trust issues, and emotional walls can quietly affect the way we connect with the people who love us. I share some of my own experiences, the patterns I’ve had to unlearn, and what healing in friendship can look like.

If you’ve ever struggled to let people in, if you’ve pushed good friends away, or if you’re trying to love someone who’s healing — this conversation is for you.

It’s honest, vulnerable, and full of hope.

Because healing is possible.

And real, safe friendships do exist.
