Solo Parent Podcast

This week we’re discussing The One Relationship That Could Be Key to Your Healing.  

Too many of us were taught that trusting ourselves was dangerous. We were told our emotions couldn’t be trusted, our hearts were deceitful, and our instincts were too “fleshly” to follow. Especially for solo parents who have lived through trauma or spiritual manipulation, this message gets internalized early and reinforced often. We stop listening to our gut and outsource decisions to experts, church leaders, or even social media. But ignoring your inner voice only deepens confusion and disconnection. Therapist and podcast host Adam Young joins us this week to help unpack how we unlearn those harmful messages, rebuild trust in our bodies, and begin listening to the voice within.

Today, we cover three main points:

• Why you’ve learned not to trust yourself, and how to gently unlearn it.

• How to tell the difference between your true inner voice and trauma-driven urges.

• Practices to rebuild trust in your body and story.
