Dealing with emotionally unavailable people

from From my Counselling years to your listening ears. Hello and welcome. · host Heidi Lester

Have you ever tried to open up to someone, only to feel ignored, shut down, or completely unseen? In this episode, we explore the frustrating and painful dynamic of emotionally unavailable people — the ones who seem close enough to keep you hanging on, but never truly let you in. We unpack: • What emotional unavailability actually looks like • Why it hurts so much to be on the receiving end • Why we stay (even when we know we’re not getting what we need) • And most importantly — how to stop chasing emotional breadcrumbs and start protecting your boundaries Whether it’s a partner, a friend, or a parent, this episode is here to validate what you’ve been feeling — and help you take your power back. If you want more support and words of encouragement, follow me Heidi Lester, on TikTok, Instagram, YouTube and Facebook.
