Ever found yourself trapped in a cycle of longing, obsession, and emotional chaos? A constant craving for validation, attention, or affection from someone who never quite gives you what you need? If this feels familiar, you’re not alone.
What if this “love” you’re chasing isn’t love at all? What if it’s just a distraction, a survival mechanism to keep you from facing the real emotional work?
In this episode, we’re shattering the myth of limerence. The obsessive longing that feels like love but is really just a projection of unmet needs. We’ll dive into why limerence isn’t about the other person — it’s about what’s missing inside of you. It’s about the unresolved emotional wounds you’ve been running from, wrapped up in a fantasy of someone else being the solution.
Limerence is rooted in dependency. A desperate need to feel validated, to feel whole, by someone outside of yourself. But here’s the truth: no one can give you what you’re not willing to give yourself. The real work starts when you stop blaming them for not meeting your needs and start meeting them yourself. This episode is a deep dive into the self-healing process, where we’ll unravel how limerence keeps you stuck in emotional dependency and teach you how to break free.\
What if the obsession isn’t about them? What if it’s about you? What if you could finally stop chasing and start reclaiming your emotional independence? Press play, and let’s begin the transformation together.
