Ep 161: You’re Not Broken—How Abuse Creates the “Not Enough” Belief
If you’ve ever felt like you’re not enough, no matter how hard you try, this episode is for you. In this episode, we explore how trauma and post-separation abuse can wire your brain for shame, self-doubt, and a deep sense of inadequacy.
You’ll learn how those “not good enough” beliefs aren’t your truth - instead you’ll see that they are neural pathways shaped by chronic invalidation, coercion, and fear. And most importantly, you’ll hear ways to begin disrupting that narrative and cultivating a sense of worthiness from within.
In this episode I talk about:
- Why survivors of abuse often carry deep-seated beliefs of inadequacy
- How trauma and repeated invalidation shape your brain’s sense of self
- Small, doable acts of self-trust that begin to rewire that belief
- How to root into your values and start showing up for yourself
- The power of recognizing this belief as part of the trauma, not your identity
You don’t have to be perfect, healed, or strong all the time to be enough. You already are.
