Client Spotlight: "This Isn't Normal" (ft. Rieya)
This week I welcome Rieya on the show! Rieya is one of my current clients, and this week she shares her story about how you end up in a relationship where you abandon yourself, ignore the red flags, and chase breadcrumbs. It’s not always obvious while it’s happening. We get into anxious attachment, over-functioning, and why it’s so hard to let go of someone who once treated you well. We also talk about what emotional abandonment really looks like, how to break that people-pleasing pattern, and why your self-worth can tank when you're trying to “fix” someone who won’t even fix themselves.Work with me, sign up for the newsletter, or take the dating quiz: https://confidencechris.com/Chapters:00:00 Coachee Spotlight Reiya - Situation Introduction13:47 Her Biggest Fear Around Love27:47 Where Her Struggles With Boundaries Came From35:31 Why You Hold On So Hard47:10 Men Chasing External Validation58:02 Sharing a Dog with Your Ex
