Listen Later

In this raw and vulnerable episode, Lisa opens up about the confusing reality of trauma bonds - why they feel so much like love when they're actually destroying us from the inside out.

What You'll Learn:

• The brain chemistry behind trauma bonds and why they're so addictive

• How trauma bonds mimic the feeling of "true love"

• Personal stories that reveal the desperation and confusion trauma bonds create

• Why your body craves what's hurting you

• The difference between genuine love and trauma bonding

Key Takeaways:

Trauma bonds hijack your brain's reward system

The push-pull dynamic creates an addiction-like response

Understanding the science helps you break free from self-blame

Your feelings are valid, but they're not telling you the truth about love

This episode gets real about the internal battle so many face: "But it feels like love, so how can it be bad for me?" If you've ever felt confused about why you can't let go of someone who hurts you, this episode is for you.
