The Psychology of the Child Who Was Never Protected.

In this deeply human exploration, we unpack The Psychology of the Child Who Was Never Protected — what parentification, hypervigilance, and early emotional abandonment do to a nervous system, how those survival skills show up as adulthood “strength,” and how you can begin to reparent yourself with gentleness and real tools. What you’ll learn: • How childhood survival strategies turn into lifelong patterns (people-pleasing, hyper-independence, compassion fatigue). • Clear signs that your “maturity” may be armor — and how to recognize it. • The neuroscience behind hypervigilance, mirror neurons, and attachment wounds. • The painful hidden reality of being the stable one — and the practical, compassionate steps to heal.
