Your exes are still living in your nervous system, even the ones you swear you're over.
You can change your hair, move apartments, and go full hot-girl-summer reinvention mode, but if you haven't actually processed a past relationship, your body doesn't know it's over. In part 2 of the High Self-Worth Summer series, I'm walking you through why healing has to happen somatically, not just mentally — and why "I got over him" and "I've released the pattern" are two very different things. This is the episode I wish someone had handed me a decade ago. It would've saved me so much pain, and I think it'll do the same for a lot of you.
Inside the Episode:
Why memory of past relationships isn't just mental, it's somatic, and your attachment style is your nervous system's best guess at how to stay connected based on what worked before
What repetition compulsion actually is, and how unprocessed heartbreak + unhealed attachment wounds team up to pull you toward the same painful dynamics, just with a new face
What it actually takes to let go for real: getting to the root of the trauma, feeling the emotions you never let yourself feel, naming your patterns, grieving, and choosing forgiveness, for them and for you
