When love stunts independence. In this episode, we unpack how well-meaning parents can unknowingly create emotional traps that keep us stuck, scared, and unsure how to move forward. We share real stories, from financial dependence to guilt-driven choices, that reveal how childhood conditioning still shows up in our adult lives. If you’re on a path of growth and ready to break free, we’re here to help you find the clarity and courage to truly stand on your own.
