Hyper-Independence: The Wound Behind ‘I Don’t Need Anyone

Are you truly independent, or are you operating from survival mode? Hyper-independence is often seen as strength, but in reality, it’s a trauma response. A shield built from abandonment, unmet needs, and the fear of relying on others.

In this episode, Dr. Marlene Philip takes a deep dive into:

✨ How hyper-independence is rooted in childhood wounds and abandonment

✨ The connection between hyper-independence and wounded feminine & masculine energy

✨ How hustle culture keeps women exhausted and disconnected from their true power

✨ Why hyper-independence affects relationships and repels healthy love

✨ Steps to heal, reclaim your feminine energy, and create space for support, softness, and trust

You don’t have to carry it all alone. True strength isn’t doing everything yourself, it’s knowing when to receive. 💛
