Childhood emotional neglect (CEN) can be an invisible burden that many carry into adulthood without realising it. In this episode of 'The One You Feed,' host Eric Zimmer chats with Dr. Jonice Webb, a pioneer in CEN awareness and author of 'Running on Empty: Overcome Your Childhood Emotional Neglect.' Dr. Webb brings her wealth of experience to the table, helping you understand what CEN is and how it might be affecting your life without you even knowing it.
The episode kicks off with the famous parable of the two wolves, illustrating the constant battle between our positive and negative emotions. Dr. Webb explains how childhood emotional neglect can make it difficult to feed your 'good wolf,' leading to struggles with self-awareness, emotional intelligence, and healthy relationships. Dr. Webb breaks down the subtle signs of CEN, such as feeling empty inside, struggling with self-discipline, and having a harsh inner critic.
She also offers practical advice on how to begin healing, like recognising your emotions and treating them as friends rather than foes. Through her compassionate and knowledgeable approach, Dr. Webb provides a roadmap for overcoming CEN and building a more emotionally fulfilling life. You'll find yourself nodding along as Dr. Webb describes common experiences and challenges faced by those who grew up with emotional neglect.
Her insights are both enlightening and comforting, making this episode a must-listen for anyone looking to understand their emotional landscape better. Feeling like your emotions are a mystery?
