How Neglect Teaches the Wrong Version of Love

In this episode, we explore how childhood emotional neglect shapes the way we understand and experience love as adults.When emotional needs are not consistently met growing up, children still form beliefs about love—but those beliefs are often rooted in absence rather than connection. Instead of learning that love is safe, supportive, and freely given, many learn that love must be earned, maintained, and proven.
