Listen "Self-Abandonment & the Unbottling: Finding Our Way Back Through Self-Compassion"
Episode Synopsis
In this heartfelt and honest episode of The Sound of Self, we explore the subtle but powerful ways we engage in self-abandonment—by bottling up our emotions, dismissing our needs, and disconnecting from our inner world in the name of survival, perfection, or peacekeeping. Together, we unpack what self-abandonment really looks and feels like in everyday life. From people-pleasing to emotional shutdowns, we trace the roots of these patterns and talk about how we can begin to shift them. At the heart of this conversation is the antidote: self-compassion.💭 What does it actually mean to be compassionate with ourselves?💬 How can we hold space for difficult feelings instead of suppressing them?🛠️ What are small, practical steps we can take to stop abandoning ourselves—especially when it feels hardest? This episode is an invitation to pause, feel, and reconnect—with your body, your truth, and your emotional needs. It’s about learning to come home to yourself, one kind moment at a time. Whether you’re new to this kind of inner work or deep in the process, this conversation is a space for reflection, healing, and the reminder that you are never too much—and never too far gone.
