What begins as uncertainty about love quickly reveals unresolved grief, childhood trauma, and a lingering sense of guilt around his mother’s passing. Together, we explore how past experiences shape our ability to trust ourselves and make decisions. This is a powerful look at what it takes to move from rumination and fear toward self-trust and emotional freedom.
