Show Highlights & Big Takeaways:

1. What is The Inner Child

The concept of the “inner child” refers to a psychological and emotional idea suggesting that every adult retains a part of themselves that holds onto the emotions, memories, and experiences from their childhood.

2. Understanding Emotionally Unavailable Parents

Emotionally unavailable parents struggle to provide the emotional support and responsiveness their children need, often showing traits such as difficulty expressing emotions, inconsistency, and preoccupation with their own needs. This can impact a child’s emotional development, self-esteem, and ability to form healthy relationships in adulthood.

3. Healing Process

As we transition into adulthood, we come to realize the humanity in our parents. They usually raised us to the best of their knowledge and experiences from their own upbringing. It’s important to accept that they likely did their best with the knowledge they had. Holding onto grudges and dwelling on the past won’t aid in the healing process. Instead, it’s important to learn how to let go.
