In this episode, I sit down with Julia Kristina, counsellor, speaker, and founder of Julia Kristina Counselling, to unpack what self-abandonment really is: not just ignoring your needs, but quietly giving away your voice, your boundaries, and your sense of worth.Together we explore:<ul><li>Why many of us don’t even recognize that we’ve been abandoning ourselves.</li><li>The subtle signs of self-abandonment: over-giving, people-pleasing, emotional numbing, anxiety, shame, and feeling “not enough.”</li><li>What healing actually looks like — boundary-setting, self-validation, grounded presence, and re-rooting identity in truth instead of survival patterns.</li><li>How to reclaim your power, speak your truth, and build relationships based on safety, not survival.</li></ul>If you’ve ever felt tired of proving that you’re “good enough,” or found yourself dissolving who you are to keep someone else comfortable — this episode is a wake-up call. It’s about coming home to yourself.Follow Julia on <a href="https://www.instagram.com/juliacounsellor/" rel="nofollow">Instagram </a>or visit her <a href="https://juliakristina.com/" rel="nofollow">website</a>.
