Stop Self-Abandonment: Nervous System Healing and Learning to Stay With Yourself
What does it actually mean to stop abandoning yourself — not in theory, but in real life?
In this episode of Love From the Inside Out, Susan names what she stands for. Not as a recap. Not as a how-to. But as a clear point of view rooted in lived experience.
This conversation explores what changes after a quiet but decisive internal shift — and how nervous system healing, attention, and self-loyalty become the foundation for lasting change.
In this episode, you’ll hear:
- Why discipline and mindset alone often aren’t enough
- How self-abandonment shows up through urgency, control, and over-functioning
- The difference between self-improvement and self-loyalty
- How to care for your body without collapsing your identity into what’s struggling
- What it looks like to “stay” with yourself as trust rebuilds over time

If you’ve been listening and thinking, “Yes… this is me,” — especially if you’re in that in-between season where you can’t go back, but you’re still learning how to live here — I created a private feed to support you.
Return is where we take this out of the “insight” zone and into your actual day.
Inside Return, you’ll receive at least two private drops each month, designed to help you come back to yourself in the exact moments you usually lose yourself, including:
- Resets — short audios for urgency, overwhelm, spiraling, or the pull to self-abandon
- Boundary Scripts — clear, kind language you can borrow (texts, work replies, family moments) without over-explaining
- Audio Letters — like a voice note from me when you’re in the middle of it, helping you re-ground and choose differently
No community. No calls. No pressure to “keep up.”
Just steady support you can return to anytime — especially on the days you need it most.
