While we often hear that hardships refine us and trauma strengthens us, this conversation takes a more honest look at what really happens when people go through hard things and don’t come out better on the other side.
Vanessa and I discuss how to discern when someone is still emotionally unavailable or unsafe, and how to determine whether the cost of staying connected is simply too high. We also discuss attachment styles, the internal pressure to be healed before partnership, and the reality that some people want unconditional love more than they want to be accountable for how they show up.
