Do you go quiet, freeze, or emotionally disconnect when conversations get intense — even with people you care about? Do you want to communicate better, but your mind goes blank, your chest tightens, and words just disappear? If so, you’re not broken. Your nervous system is trying to protect you. When emotional threat is detected, the brain shifts into survival mode. Blood flow and neural resources move away from the areas responsible for language, emotional processing, and social connection — making it genuinely hard to think, speak, or stay present. This is why “just communicate ...

Have you ever felt completely alone—while lying next to someone who says they love you? You smile. You stay. You shrink. And yet, the ache only gets louder.

Of silencing your needs just to keep the peace… and slowly disappearing in the process. You Were There, But I Still Felt Alone is for the woman who’s done explaining her pain. Done begging for presence. Done calling it love when it only hurts. In these pages, you’ll find...

Ff we spend our lives trying to be “the strong one,” we become exhausted, burned-out, and disconnected from our truest selves. What if it were different? Could there be a different way to be strong?

In other words, the posture from which we parent matters infinitely more than the techniques of parenting. Emotional safety—more than any other factor—is scientifically linked to raising kids who live, love, and lead well.
