When relationships end badly, our first instinct is often to focus on the other person. We replay the lies, the betrayal, the red flags we missed, and the emotional scars left behind. We tell stories about the toxic partners we dated and the heartbreak they caused. But today, we're turning the spotlight inward. What if the most important question isn't "Why did they hurt me?" but rather "What was happening within me that made me stay, ignore the warning signs, or accept less than I deserved?" In this conversation, we explore the unhealed wounds, childhood experiences, insecurities, and emotional patterns that can influence the partners we choose. This is not about blaming ourselves
for what happened, but about understanding ourselves more deeply so that we can break unhealthy cycles, heal old wounds, and build relationships rooted in self-worth, emotional maturity, and genuine love.
