Let’s be real — most people aren’t emotionally unavailable... they’re just emotionally unaware.

In this episode, we stop sugarcoating and start spotlighting the unconscious patterns running your life. If you’ve ever found yourself doom-scrolling at 2am, blowing up over “nothing,” or chasing the same dead-end relationship dynamic in a different body — it’s not bad luck. It’s unprocessed emotional programming.

We’re pulling back the curtain on:

• Why your nervous system is quietly calling the shots (and how it’s screwing up your love life)

• The black-out effect: how triggers hijack your brain and make you forget who TF you are

• What to do when your trauma response is disguised as “just being chill”

• Why ghosting hurts so much — and how to stop outsourcing your self-worth to strangers

• The actual reason you keep dating the same person in a different outfit

This is your wake-up call: if you're not tracking your triggers, they're tracking you.
And the only way out... is in.

👉 If you’re tired of self-sabotage disguised as “just how I am,” hit play. Then grab a journal. You're gonna need it.
