When life gets hard, do you let people in or do you disappear until you feel like yourself again? You stop replying to messages. Cancel plans. Tell yourself you just need some space, even when a part of you wishes someone would check in. Tomorrow, I'm getting into why we withdraw when we're struggling, what might be happening beneath the surface, and how we can begin responding differently without forcing ourselves to have everything figured out. 🎙️ New episode drops tomorrow!
