In this powerful coaching session, Thais Gibson explores how unmet needs, childhood wounds, and deeply rooted beliefs about self-worth can shape the way we interpret our partner's actions. Through a real-life example, she reveals how painful experiences can trigger feelings of abandonment, lack of value, and emotional disconnection, and how learning to identify and communicate your needs can transform both your relationship with yourself and others. You'll learn why expressing your needs is not selfish, how self-abandonment keeps old wounds alive, and the practical steps you can take to build self-worth from within rather than relying on validation from others.
