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.
