Early lessons in relational danger: "When the perp is your savior" by Leanne

So we're littered with vulnerability and trust issues... and plenty of recentish events can dominate our reasoning about "why."

But really, those interpersonal shuttdown instincts likely started a lot earlier. We carry unseen wounds from decades ago that stack up to create sky-high obstacles to human connection, which get validated down the line to form solid fucked up core beliefs about ourselves vs. the human species.

Today, we're hearing the story of a MF like you, reflecting on an early toddlerdom experience with The Woman Who Raised Her that would logically lay the groundwork for future withdrawal from close interpersonal connection. Let's hear from a community pillar, Leanne, as we release a MFs Speaks episode from the private vault.
