The real problem is, most of us were raised by parents who were just surviving -so they taught us survival, not life. No one sat us down to explain how debt works, how to self-soothe, how to say 'no' without guilt, or how to walk away from love that hurts. We weren't shown what emotional safety looks like-just told to keep the peace, suppress the feelings, and hustle harder. Now we're adults paying bills on autopilot, spiraling in relationships, mistaking burnout for success, and calling anxiety our personality. Lost, overwhelmed, and wondering why we feel broken-when in reality, we were just never taught the basics of being whole.
