#35: 'If You Don't Like It, Leave': How Childhood Wounds Keep You Stuck With The Wrong Person

from Heal Out Loud with Nicole Polidano · host Nicole Polidano

Why do we stay when every cell in our body is screaming "leave"?In this episode, I open up about four relationships where my unhealed inner child kept me chained to people who weren't good for me, from the man who told me "if you don't like it, leave" to the one who disappeared for two days and called me crazy for worrying.But here's the uncomfortable truth: I was the toxic one too. Not because I was cruel, but because I kept choosing to stay in places that were destroying me. Because I believed I deserved it. Because being mistreated felt safer than being alone.I share the six things that finally broke the cycle, starting with the moment I sat down with little me and asked her what she actually needed.This breakdown can be your breakthrough if you use it properly.💌 Contact me for inner child healing coaching: [email protected]#innerchildhealing #toxicrelationships #healingattachmentwounds #overcominganxiousattachment #selfworth #healingjourney #relationshipadvice #attachmentstyles #breakuprecovery #selflove
