In this episode, Sarah shares her personal story and breaks down why some breakups feel disproportionately devastating, leaving you panicked, frozen, or questioning your worth. You’ll learn how abandonment wounds form, why insight alone isn’t enough to heal them, and what it actually takes to rebuild self-trust so you stop abandoning yourself when someone else leaves.Join my free masterclass to learn how to understand why you've struggle to get over your ex and finally get clear on what to do to move forward.
