S3 Ep #80 - The Mirror Effect: How Your Childhood is Playing Out in Your Relationships (and You Don’t Even Realise It)

If you keep attracting the same types of people… if your relationships feel one-sided… or if you’re constantly the “strong one” who holds it all together — this episode will hit home.

Because it’s not bad luck.
It’s programming.

In this deep-dive episode, Stacey unpacks how your childhood conditioning and unhealed patterns are quietly shaping your relationships — in love, friendships, and even business.

You’ll learn how your nervous system wires safety through familiarity (not happiness), why you keep re-creating old dynamics, and how to finally start breaking those loops.

Inside, Stacey shares:
 ✨ The psychology of why your nervous system repeats familiar emotional patterns.
✨ How the “Protective Self” vs. “Authentic Self” dynamic plays out in everyday relationships.
✨ Real-life examples of how childhood roles (the peacemaker, performer, or caretaker) show up in adulthood.
✨ Powerful reflection prompts and reparenting tools you can use right now to change the way you connect.

This isn’t about blame — it’s about awareness, healing, and choosing differently.

Because when you see the mirror clearly… you finally have the power to change the reflection.
