The conversation no one wants to have but desperately needs to hear.

Are you carrying a shameful secret that makes you question your own sanity? Do you sometimes find yourself missing someone who hurt you deeply, and you can't understand why? You're not alone, and you're definitely not crazy.

In this raw, honest episode, Temi tackles one of the most taboo topics in divorce recovery: why some women miss their abusive ex-partners after leaving. If you've ever felt guilty for having conflicted feelings about someone who treated you badly, this episode will change everything.

You'll discover:

• What trauma bonding really is and how it hijacks your brain
• Why missing an abuser doesn't mean the abuse wasn't real
• The difference between missing someone and wanting them back
• How abusers engineer psychological dependence (it's not your fault)
• Practical tools for handling waves of longing without acting on them
• Why your complex feelings are actually evidence of your humanity, not your weakness

This episode is for you if:

• You feel ashamed of having any positive feelings toward your ex
• You're confused by missing someone who caused you pain
• You're worried that missing them means you're "not healed"
• You feel alone in having these complex, contradictory emotions
• You need permission to feel what you feel without judgment

Warning: This episode discusses emotional, psychological, and physical abuse. Please listen with care and reach out for support if needed.
