About this episode

The episode explores the impact of past trauma on self-trust and decision-making in relationships.

I sit down with Josh to unpack the deep-rooted patterns driving his self-doubt and anxiety in a new relationship. What begins as uncertainty about love quickly reveals unresolved grief, childhood trauma, and a lingering sense of guilt around his mother’s passing. Together, we explore how past experiences shape our ability to trust ourselves and make decisions. This is a powerful look at what it takes to move from rumination and fear toward self-trust and emotional freedom.
