About Unpacked & Detangled

There’s no guide for how to make it through life. Many of us thought that going to college and following the career checklist would put our lives on that straight path. But no one really gave us the guide to many of the obstacles we face as adults? For example, what to do when we have difficulties in our friendships, relationships, and jobs. We were never told that growing hurts. Therapists, Dr. Ronald Love and Dr. Deonna Kitwana unpack and detangle some of life's struggles and provides tips and support on how to navigate life.

   I’m Good Alone… and That Might Be the Problem (High-Functioning, Still Struggling)

   In this episode of Unpacked and Detangled, we continue the High-Functioning, Still Struggling series by exploring hyper-independence, emotional self-protection, and why receiving love can feel harder than surviving alone. We unpack how trauma, avoidant attachment, success, and self-sufficiency can quietly impact relationships and emotional intimacy, even when we deeply desire connection. This episode dives into the tension between wanting love and making room for it, while offering practical ways to begin healing hyper-independence and learning that support can be safe.

We explore how burnout shows up beyond the workplace, why rest alone isn’t always enough, and the practical tools needed to move from survival mode back to peace.

   Strong Friend, Silent Struggle (High-Functioning, Still Struggling)

   In this episode of Unpacked and Detangled, we continue the series High-Functioning, Still Struggling by unpacking the hidden weight of always being “the strong one”—the dependable friend, the responsible sibling, the therapist, the partner who keeps everything together. We explore the emotional cost of carrying everyone else, the difficulty of asking for help, and what it looks like to finally let yourself be supported too.
