Facing the Fear of Abandonment

Have you ever felt the fear that someone you depend on might leave or forget you? In this heartfelt episode, Alexis explores the fear of abandonment and how it affects our emotions, relationships, and sense of safety. Through a Moment of Science, you will understand how early attachment patterns shape these fears. In a Faith Reflection, you will be reminded that God’s presence is steadfast. He never leaves or forsakes us. And in a Practical Check In, you will learn how to calm your mind, retrain your nervous system, and rest securely in His love. This episode is for anyone who has ever felt unseen, left out, or anxious about being alone. You will walk away grounded in the truth that peace does not come from who stays but from who is always with you. On a personal note, I am currently overcoming all of these topics I'm sharing in these episodes. I am working on an overcoming anxiety and depression devotional that I hope to share early next year. I hope these messages create a feeling of connection. You are not alone.
