Raised to Survive, Not to Feel

In today’s episode, we’re talking about a kind of hurt that often goes unnoticed, the quiet ache of growing up emotionally unseen.

Inspired by a heartfelt conversation with someone very dear to me, we explore what it feels like when your parents are present physically, but absent emotionally. When provision was given, but connection was missing.

We talk about the invisible grief of being the “strong one” too early, the emotional neglect that teaches us to swallow our feelings, and the lifelong journey of learning we were never “too needy” we were just never truly held.

This is for anyone who’s ever felt unseen, unheard, or emotionally invisible.
At The Healing Table, your feelings are safe here.

Pull up a seat. Let’s talk.
