Emotional intimacy isn't something you're born with—it's something you practice.
Many high-functioning people mistake emotional intimacy for oversharing, people-pleasing, or simply having the "right personality." But genuine connection isn't built through performance. It's built through trust, discernment, and learning how to let people know the real you without abandoning yourself.
In this episode, I explain why emotional intimacy is a learnable skill, how childhood survival patterns interfere with healthy relationships, and seven practical ways to build deeper connections without losing yourself.
If you've ever thought, "I just don't trust people," this conversation may completely change how you understand trust.
