E351: Why Your Childhood Still Controls Your Reactions | David Deane Haskell

Have you ever wondered why something seemingly small can trigger such a huge emotional reaction?Why does being left out, criticized, or rejected sometimes feel far bigger than the moment itself?The answer may not be in your present—it may be in your childhood.In this powerful episode, I sit down with David Deane Haskell, author of Wounded Angels and Inner Child Unleashed, to explore the life-changing power of inner child healing and why unresolved childhood trauma continues to influence our relationships, confidence, emotional reactions, and even addiction later in life.David shares his own remarkable journey through addiction recovery, codependency, spiritual awakening, and emotional healing while offering practical insight into reconnecting with the younger parts of ourselves that still carry pain.Together we discuss:✔ What inner child healing actually is✔ Why emotional triggers are rarely about the present moment✔ How shame attacks differ from anxiety or panic attacks✔ The connection between addiction, codependency, and childhood trauma✔ Why affirmations feel uncomfortable when you first begin healing✔ Learning to love yourself after years of self-hatred✔ Gratitude, spirituality, and emotional recovery✔ Healing relationships with parents—and yourself✔ Why every healing journey begins with curiosity instead of judgmentIf you've ever struggled with people-pleasing, low self-worth, emotional overwhelm, or wondering why you react so strongly to certain situations, this conversation will help you understand yourself with greater compassion—and remind you that healing is possible.Connect with David Dean Haskell🌐 Website:https://daviddeanehaskell.com📚 Wounded Angelshttps://mybook.to/woundedangels📝 Inner Child Journal (Substack)https://innerchildjournal.substack.com📸 Instagramhttps://www.instagram.com/daviddeanehaskellHey there, I’m so glad you’re here and tuning in!
