31 Episode - Emotionally Unavailable—Why It Hurts (and How to Heal)

You crave real connection—the kind where you feel seen, safe, and chosen. Yet somehow love keeps feeling like hard work. You give more, try harder, chase closeness… and end up lonely next to people you care about. This episode unpacks the hidden programs underneath it all:

Lonely & Craving Connection: Why you can feel isolated in a crowded room—and how that feeling is produced from the inside out.

Why You Work for Love: The childhood imprint that turns affection into a performance, and how to stop earning love and start receiving it.

Yearning to Belonging: The exact shift that turns chasing into being chosen—without playing games or building more “boundaries.”

When Love Feels Like Hard Work: How repeated cycles (emotionally unavailable partners, push–pull dynamics, self-sabotage) are learned patterns you can update.
