#144: The Hidden Way You're Abandoning Yourself in Love

Have you ever felt like you lose yourself the moment you start caring about someone?

Maybe you overthink every text, ignore your intuition, stay quiet to keep the peace, or spend more time trying to understand someone else's behavior than listening to your own heart.

If so, this episode is for you.

Today we're talking about one of the biggest hidden patterns I see in women who feel exhausted by dating and relationships: self-abandonment.

Not the dramatic kind. The quiet, subtle ways we slowly disconnect from ourselves in hopes of being loved.

In this episode we'll explore:
- What self-abandonment actually looks like (and why most women don't recognize it)
- Why so many high-achieving, loving women fall into this pattern
- The small ways we betray our own intuition without realizing it
- What it really means to "come home" to yourself
- Why healing isn't about becoming someone new—it's about reconnecting with the woman you've always been

Because the journey into healthy love doesn't begin when someone finally chooses you. It begins the moment you stop walking away from yourself. If this episode resonates, I'd love to hear from you.
