Fear of abandonment is one of the most deeply ingrained anxieties we face, often manifesting in relationships, friendships, and even our sense of self-worth. In this episode, we dive into the psychology behind abandonment anxiety, exploring how early experiences shape our fears and how the brain reacts to perceived rejection. We’ll unpack the signs of abandonment fear, from people-pleasing and clinginess to trust issues and avoidance, and discuss practical strategies to calm anxiety, build self-worth, and form healthier, more secure connections.

Plus, I’ll share a personal story on how abandonment fears once controlled my relationships—and the key lessons that helped me heal. If you’ve ever felt the overwhelming fear of being left behind, this episode is for you.
