We all want to feel safe in love—but what does emotional safety actually mean?
In this episode of Tea Time with Tara's Can We Talk? miniseries, we explore what safety feels like in a relationship, how to recognize when it’s missing, and why many of us mistake peacekeeping for real security.

You’ll learn:

• What emotional safety is—and isn’t

• The difference between stability and safety

• How your nervous system reacts to emotional disconnection

• Practical ways to build safety with your partner

• Why feeling seen, heard, and held isn’t optional—it’s foundational

If you’ve ever said “I’m fine” when you weren’t, or stayed silent to keep the peace, this one’s for you.
We’re done mistaking comfort for connection.
