What happens when love doesn’t feel safe… or familiar? In this episode, I get real about the struggles of receiving love when your upbringing lacked affection, validation, or emotional safety. We’re unpacking the quiet discomfort, the triggers, the walls—and learning how to heal, soften, and accept the kind of love we’ve always deserved. Whether you're navigating this in friendships, marriage, or with yourself, this one’s for you. Let’s grow through it, together.
