Show Notes
In this episode we explore how early relational trauma shapes our sense of self - and what we can reclaim as we begin to heal.
We dive into how protective adaptations like people-pleasing, perfectionism, withdrawal, or over-achieving often feel like “who we are,” and how to start reconnecting with the authentic self beneath the layers of survival.
Alec also shares practical insights from therapy, including narrative and parts-based approaches, and a simple daily practice to help create space for your authentic self to emerge.
This episode is for anyone wanting to understand their patterns, reclaim their voice, and reconnect with joy, creativity, and self-worth.
