One Foot In, One Foot Out: How The Mother Wound Effects Your Relationship
Do you enter relationships already looking for the exit? Scanning for red flags before anything's gone wrong? That's the boxer stance, one foot in, one foot out, close enough to want connection, far enough to leave before it hurts you.
In this episode, Termeil Hall connects this defensive posture back to the mother wound, why your body learned that closeness means danger, and why you've mistaken guardedness for just "not being good at relationships."
You'll learn why a finished boxer stance isn't about never getting hit, it's about trusting you can survive it, and how to start nurturing yourself the way you were never shown.

Why personal growth hasn't created the changes you desire
You've read the books. Journaled. Made the vision board. Repeated the affirmations. Woken up early.
So why do you feel exactly the same as you did a year ago?
It's not a discipline problem. In this episode, I break down why most personal growth advice only treats the surface, like watering cut flowers instead of tending the root, and why that root usually goes back further than any habit tracker can reach.
I share my own story growing up with an absent mother, the belief it planted in me before I even had words for it, and the first practice that actually starts pulling a pattern out at the root instead of managing it on the surface.

Why You Self-Sabotage Every Good Relationship
Do you pull away the second things get serious? Start arguments just to see if they'll stay? Watch a good thing fall apart and quietly wonder if you're the problem?
You're not. But you might be the pattern.
In this first episode, I break down what self-sabotage in relationships actually looks like, the quiet version nobody talks about. Not the dramatic blowup, but the text left on read, the plans canceled because you're "tired," the bridge you build ninety percent of the way and then walk back across.
I cover why this isn't your fault, where the pattern was actually learned, and the first practice you can use tonight to start catching it in real time.

0:00 The three questions

1:40 Why it isn't your fault
3:00 The first practice: Pause
4:15 Two promises

The Mother Wound: A simple practice to finally heal
When was the last time you said "I love you" to yourself? And no, not those mirror affirmations you repeat but barely believe in—those don't count. We’re talking about saying it with deep meaning, where you actually feel a shift inside.
In this episode, we unpack the reality of parental trauma and look at where love actually comes from. You'll learn a simple, intimate 10-minute self-inquiry practice designed to cut through the cold walls of empty affirmations, provide the nurturing you didn’t get, and cultivate the deep emotional safety you’ve needed this entire time.
If you currently been struggling with old patterns keeping you stuck, my 7 stage framework, the PATTERN-PRACTICE can show you how to break old them for good. Check it our at termeilhall.com
