400. How High-Functioning Women Often Self-Abandon in Relationships with Megan Sherer

You can be successful, self-aware, and high-functioning—and still completely lose yourself in a relationship.   In this episode of The Divorce Revolution Podcast, I'm joined by integrative therapist and somatic practitioner Megan Sherer for a deeply honest conversation about how even the most self-sufficient women can unconsciously self-abandon when love is on the line. We unpack how nervous system conditioning, attachment styles, and childhood trauma shape our romantic patterns and why it's so hard to walk away from someone who feels like home, even when they aren't safe for your healing.   If you've been losing yourself in relationships that require you to shrink, fix, or prove your worth, this episode is for you.   Resources Mentioned: Megan's book: www.megansherer.com/book Sign up for ReNewU waitlist to get early access: https://products.ambershaw.com/signature-waitlist Nail Your Niche: https://ambershaw.samcart.com/products/nail-your-niche Cured Nutrition use code AMBER for 15% off: https://www.curednutrition.com/   What We Discuss: What self-abandonment actually looks like in high-functioning women Why emotionally unavailable partners can feel so familiar How nervous system dysregulation ties into who we choose and why The role of "somatic safety" in building real trust with yourself Why clarity is found in the body—not just the mind How to stop abandoning yourself and finally choose aligned love   Find more from Megan Sherer: Instagram: www.instagram.com/megansherer   Find more from Amber Shaw: Instagram: @msambershaw Website: ambershaw.com
