Ep 31 ~ When Love Costs You: Overgiving & Self-Abandonment

The Program

Overgiving isn’t the love language that we think it is.

.

It is a deeply embedded nervous system pattern.

.

In this episode of Alchemy with Sheeana Leigh, we’re having a best-friend level conversation about overgiving, self-abandonment, and why so many women end up exhausted, anxious, and disconnected from their bodies inside relationships.

.

This isn’t about being “too much,” too emotional, or bad at love (which is basically the paradigm we have been fed our entire lives).

.

It’s about how the female nervous system adapts to stay safe, often by fawning, pleasing, anticipating, and putting everyone else first.

.

We explore:

》 Why overgiving is often a trauma response, not a personality trait

》 How self-abandonment shows up in the body (fatigue, anxiety, loss of desire, burnout)

》 The link between overgiving, the nervous system, and women’s health

》 Why eroticism and aliveness disappear when you’re constantly managing someone else

》 How overgiving actually trains others not to show up

》 Simple, embodied ways to interrupt this pattern without becoming cold, guarded, or shut down

.

This episode is for the woman who loves deeply…

but is tired of betraying herself in the process.

.

You’re ready for a different way of relating.
