Is your relationship built on real love or is your nervous system mistaking trauma for passion? In this Valentine’s Day Special, I’m joined by Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist (LMFT) Mat Jeanius, and we’re breaking down the neuroscience of love, lust, and trauma bonds. If you’ve ever wondered why you keep chasing toxic relationships, why passion can feel like an addiction, or how your brain tricks you into thinking someone is "the one" (even when the red flags are waving 🚩🚩), this episode is for you.

🔹 What You’ll Learn:

✔️ How your brain chemistry impacts attraction & relationships

✔️ The difference between love, lust, and trauma bonds
