Why No Contact Didn't Unhook You

from The Family Dropouts · host Dorcy Pruter

You did the hardest thing. You went no contact. You changed your number. You said what needed to be said. And then you waited to feel free.It didn't come.Or maybe it came for a week. Two weeks. And then your phone buzzed on a regular afternoon—not even her, just a notification with the same ringtone and your stomach dropped before your brain caught up.This episode is for the woman who's done years of therapy, read every book, gone no contact, and still feels the hook. Because the relationship was never the hook. The hook is the nervous system wiring that got installed in your body when you were young. Distance gets rid of the person. It doesn't get rid of the wiring.In this episode, Dorcy breaks down what the hook actually is, why it stays even after no contact, and the one question that puts a space between you and the pattern.The pattern ends with you.Subscribe on YouTube Listen on Apple PodcastsListen on SpotifyFollow Dorcy on InstagramJoin our free class and UNHOOK today Get full access to You Take You Wherever You Go at dorcypruter.substack.com/subscribe
