From Self-Sabotage to Self-Regulation with Anna Runkle | Heal Your Heartbreak

What if the reason you keep self-sabotaging or struggling to connect isn't a character flaw — it's your nervous system? Kendra sits down with Anna Runkle, known as the "Crappy Childhood Fairy" on YouTube, to talk about her new book, Connectability, and what it really means to be dysregulated. Anna breaks down how childhood trauma — not just the "big T" kind — can play out in our adult relationships, and why neglect or not being seen or cared for as a child can leave lasting neurological effects. She shares practical steps to start re-regulating your nervous system and breaking out of old relational patterns, plus why we're often drawn to emotionally unavailable people and the hidden ways we isolate ourselves without realizing it.
