The fear isn't in the moment, it's from the past, and you work through it. It pretty much goes away after a while.

In this episode of 'Adult Child', host Andrea welcomes back Joe Ryan, who knows trauma inside out. Joe has not only lived through it but has also dedicated his life to helping others navigate their own traumatic experiences.

Joe and Andrea dive deep into the challenges of dating with CPTSD. They explore the difference between attraction and attachment, emphasizing the importance of developing a strong sense of self.
Joe shares practical advice on setting boundaries with family members and romantic partners, highlighting why it's crucial to sit with our feelings rather than run from them. But this episode isn't just about dating. It's about understanding the roots of our emotional triggers and learning how to deal with them. Joe opens up about his personal journey, revealing how he overcame shame and learned to live beyond his trauma.
His raw honesty offers a beacon of hope for anyone struggling with similar issues. Whether you're dealing with CPTSD yourself or supporting someone who is, this episode is packed with insights that can help you navigate the complex world of relationships and emotional healing. Tune in for a conversation that's as enlightening as it is heartfelt.
