In this episode, I talk with Dr. Kelly Kessler, a physical therapist turned nervous system educator, about something called self-abandonment. It's the habit of putting everyone else first so often that you forget what you actually want or need. We get into why your boundaries might get pushback, even from people who love you, why stress and old patterns can show up as actual pain in your body, and how to tell the difference between guilt that means something and guilt that's just noise. If you've ever felt exhausted from holding everything together for everyone else, this one is for you. What You'll Learn in This Episode What self-abandonment actually means Why boundaries feel so uncomfortable, even healthy ones How stress and old patterns can show up as pain in your body The difference between guilt that's useful and guilt that's just pressure A simple way to start trusting yourself again Key Takeaway You don't have to earn the right to take care of yourself. Learning to notice your own needs, even in small moments, isn't selfish. It's the first real step toward trusting yourself again.
