In Ep. 206, host Andrea Atherton sits down with mystical coach Madison Creel to explore what happens when we lose ourselves in relationships—and how the unraveling can be a sacred invitation back home to the self. Through the shared language of spiritual healing and subconscious transformation, Andrea and Madison reflect on what it means to pour so much of ourselves into love that, when it ends, we’re left with nothing but the echo of who we once were. This episode offers an honest, heart-led look at the soul work required to rebuild from the inside out.
Together, they discuss how early childhood wounds and unconscious beliefs quietly shape the way we relate, attach, and abandon our own needs in the name of connection. Madison vulnerably shares her personal story of self-forgetting and how the grief of losing herself in past relationships cracked her open to a deeper truth: that love must first be rooted within. Andrea brings her wisdom from decades of therapeutic and spiritual work, guiding the conversation toward the importance of reclaiming the parts of ourselves we’ve exiled for the sake of being chosen. This is a dialogue between two women who understand that true healing is not about getting back to who you were before love, but about becoming who you were always meant to be.
If you’ve ever woken up after a breakup and wondered where you went, this episode will feel like a warm hand on your heart. Andrea and Madison offer more than insight—they offer hope, compassion, and the tools to begin again. Whether you’re navigating the aftermath of a relationship or simply realizing how often you abandon yourself in the pursuit of love, this sacred conversation is a map back to your wholeness.
