What if the closure you’ve been waiting for was never theirs to give you?This week Zoey sits down with author, activist and educator Najwa Zebian for a conversation about what happens when we stop handing our healing back to the people who hurt us. Najwa talks about the stories we tell ourselves about why someone hurt us – and why that's what tends to consume us.Together they explore a vital truth: needing people doesn’t make you needy. Period, end of sentence. Upholding standards for how people can treat you in relationships will allow you to stop carrying old wounds into new connections.In this episode we’re talking about:00:00 Welcome Back and Introducing Dr. Najwa Zebian04:23 Healing Without an Apology10:02 When Nothing They Can Give You Will Be Enough16:49 Why Closure Is a Myth25:19 Taking the Pen Back After Someone Hurts You33:56 Needing People Doesn’t Make You Needy38:22 Why People Do Owe You Something43:29 Why We Stay in Relationships That Hurt UsStay in touch with Najwa:Instagram: @najwazebianTikTok: @najwazebianWebsite: najwazebian.com☎️ If you loved this episode, take a second to rate, review, and subscribe to get a hotline ring for future episodes.
