In this episode of the Tattooed Truth Podcast, I get real about the patterns that shaped my most recent two-year relationship, and why it ended. I open up about how our inner child and shadow parts influence the way we connect, avoid conflict, or stay longer than we should.
I share how values like transparency have guided my relationships, and how overriding my intuition has cost me time, energy, and peace. You’ll hear what I’ve learned about listening to myself, noticing red flags, and honoring what I truly need instead of settling for less.
I also offer reflections and prompts to help you recognize when your own protective parts or old wounds are running the show — so you can break free from cycles that no longer serve you and create relationships that are authentic, aligned, and supportive of your growth.
