You say you’re healing—but are you actually just hiding? In this spicy truth-talk episode of Pleasure Pathways, Lauren unpacks the fine line between doing the work… and using the work as a shield. If you’ve been telling yourself you’re “thriving single,” but deep down still craving connection—you’re not alone. This episode dives into how avoidance can wear the mask of empowerment, when “high standards” are actually fear, and why being cozy alone with your cats and coloring books doesn’t mean you don’t also deserve deep, messy, human love. We’re talking nervous system peace and emotional risk.
Self-love and the ache for intimacy.
And the uncomfortable truth that healing doesn’t mean hiding from your own life. Let this be your permission to want more—and your reminder that you’re allowed to have it
