Episode notes
Inner Child Defines Emotional Core
- The inner child houses childhood emotions, memories, creativity, and intuition within the subconscious.
- Disconnected adult selves often result from unmet childhood needs and insecure attachments.
Archetypes Reveal Childhood Adaptations
- Archetypes are consistent relational patterns formed from repeated childhood unmet needs.
- Recognizing these patterns helps trace adult habits back to childhood adaptations.
Stop Equating Worth With Self-Sacrifice
- Do notice if you constantly put others first; that may signal a caretaker inner child pattern.
- Reframe receiving love as not dependent on self-abandonment to reduce burnout and resentment.
