Summary

Healing can be beautiful—but also deeply lonely. In this episode, we explore why personal growth and recovery often feel like such solitary paths, even when you’re surrounded by others. From the silence of setting boundaries to the ache of letting go, we unpack why healing sometimes isolates us—and why that doesn’t mean you’re doing it wrong. We’ll talk about how to find meaningful connection during these tender, in-between seasons and close with affirmations to gently remind you: you’re not alone. Let’s Calm it Down in 3…2…1.
