You don't feel free, not because of your life, but because of the patterns you learned to survive it."
What if the reason you don't feel free… has nothing to do with your circumstances?
In this powerful episode of Soul Talk, Kute Blackson sits down with Nicole LePera to reveal how your inner child is still shaping your sense of safety, control, and freedom.
You may be doing everything right… yet still feel tense, on edge, or unable to fully relax. This conversation uncovers why: part of you is still responding to life from the past.
Through the lens of the inner child, Nicole explains how patterns like overthinking, people-pleasing, and control were learned early on to help you feel safe and how they continue to run your life today.
Those patterns once protected you.
But they may now be limiting you.
If you've ever felt like something inside you won't let you fully feel at ease…
or like you keep repeating the same emotional cycles; this episode will help you see it clearly.
