In this powerful episode of More Than Sex and Secrets, Dr. Lisha Antiqua unpacks the deep emotional imprint left by abandonment wounds — especially when you don’t understand why they left, or were taught to "just be strong" and never show your pain.
If you've ever been told not to cry, to suck it up, or felt shame for still hurting — this conversation will validate everything you've carried in silence.
We explore:
The trauma of emotional neglect and sudden abandonment
How childhood conditioning ("don’t be weak") rewires adult relationships
Why holding it all together can actually cause breakdowns in intimacy and health
What it means to finally feel safe showing your pain and reclaiming your worth
This is your reminder: you don’t have to pretend you're fine anymore. Healing begins with honoring your hurt.
Ready to break the cycle of self-abandonment and manifest the love you truly desire?
