Sometimes, the loudest wounds come from what's not said. In this episode of Sometimes Love Isn't Enough, Angie shares a deeply personal reflection on her own go-to parenting pattern: silence.

If you grew up learning to keep the peace or "freeze out" conflict, you may recognize yourself here. Angie unpacks the energetic imprint of going silent on your child—not as punishment, but as self-protection. And she reveals how this well-worn path shaped her relationship with her son, despite her best intentions.

This isn't just about yelling vs. not yelling. It's about energetic withdrawal. Emotional disconnection. The unspoken message kids receive when we pull away instead of leaning in.

Drawing from her own journey, the 59/6 channel in Human Design, and the deeper roots of trauma responses, Angie opens a vulnerable and powerful conversation about:

• Why silence isn't always golden—especially in parenting

• How kids interpret emotional withdrawal

• The internal stories that fuel our need to shut down

• What it looked like to finally break the cycle and reconnect

• The path to safe expression, emotional repair, and conscious connection

If you've ever found yourself freezing up, going quiet, or emotionally checking out when things get hard—this episode will hit home in all the right ways.

Because the truth is: silence might feel safe to us... but to our kids, it often feels like abandonment.

✨ The healing starts with awareness. The reconnection starts with us.
