#72: "Why do I always repeat the same patterns with different people?"

In this episode, I explore why so many of us find ourselves stuck in familiar dynamics, even when we know they’re not good for us.

We’ll dive into the psychology of repetition compulsion - the unconscious drive to recreate early emotional experiences in hopes of finally mastering or healing them. I’ll talk about how childhood conditioning shapes what feels safe, familiar, or “like love,” even when it’s actually painful.

And most importantly, we’ll unpack how self-awareness and nervous system work can help you interrupt those old patterns, start making conscious choices, and experience love in a new way — one that doesn’t repeat the past.
