Episode 2: Unpacking the Root: How Childhood Abandonment and Neglect Wrote My Toxic Relationship Story

If you've ever felt stuck, constantly running on a broken blueprint, this episode of The Raw & Rooted Life Podcast is for you. We’re having the hardest, but most essential, conversation: tracing decades of pain back to the original wound. I share the profound impact of childhood abandonment and neglect—the vulnerable space where my foundation of low self-worth was built. That broken base made me a magnet for toxic relationships and destructive patterns, which ultimately drove me toward substances. Join me as I explain how finding that rock bottom was the radical shift that forced me to finally stop running and start healing trauma. Your childhood narratives don't have to be your destiny; it’s time to stop the vicious cycle and reclaim your power and voice.
