Childhood Trauma and How It Can Make an Adult Dysfunctional
When childhood needs go unmet, whether through neglect, criticism, or emotional absence, the pain doesn’t simply disappear. Instead, it hides beneath the surface and shapes the way we think, feel, and behave as adults.
This can show up as:
- Struggling to trust others or form healthy relationships
- Feeling overwhelmed by emotions and unable to regulate them
- People-pleasing to keep the peace, even at your own expense
- Repeating painful relationship patterns without knowing why
- Living with shame, fear, or the belief that you’re not enough
- Feeling stuck in cycles of anxiety, numbness, or self-doubt
These patterns are not random—they are the echo of childhood experiences. They become the “rules” we unconsciously follow, even when they no longer serve us.
The good news is: once you understand where these patterns come from, you can begin to change them. Healing starts with awareness.
In this free live online event, Nij Dey will explore:
- The 4 attachment styles and how they shape your connections
- Emotional dysregulation and why it feels so overwhelming
- How trauma wounds and emotional neglect affect adult life
- The difference between Big “T” and little “t” trauma and why both matter
You’ll walk away with greater clarity about why you feel the way you do, and practical insights to begin rewriting your story.
