#508: Saving Them Won't Save You

from The Mark Groves Podcast

Here's what nobody wants to hear: the relationship you keep ending up in isn't bad luck - it's a pattern, and patterns have origins. In this episode, I'm unpacking the "problem and fixer" dynamic, how your childhood attachment wounds quietly write the script for who you're attracted to, and why being needed can feel so much like being loved when really, it's a wound in disguise. We get into how deception and narcissistic patterns hook the part of you that learned to earn love through overgiving and why real healing doesn't start with fixing yourself, it starts with stopping the story that you're broken. This is a call to take radical responsibility for the places you've abandoned yourself, grieve the original pain that keeps you chasing what you never received, and finally build the discernment and boundaries that don't just change your relationships, they change you.
