Healing Self-Abandonment in Relationships & Learning to Trust Yourself Again
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Have you ever found yourself shrinking, overgiving, or saying yes when every part of you wanted to say no, then wondering why you feel disconnected or resentful in your relationships? In this episode, Britt Piper explores the roots of self-abandonment through a nervous system and attachment lens, offering a compassionate reframe for patterns that are often met with shame. She unpacks how these responses once served as protection, why awareness alone doesn’t change them, and how healing begins by learning to stay with yourself in moments of discomfort rather than overriding your truth. This conversation is a gentle reminder that your patterns make sense, your body is wise, and with patience and support, it is possible to build relationships that don’t require you to leave yourself behind.
