Creating Conscious Relationships

How to Let Love In When You’re Used to Doing Everything Alone

Jenelle Annette

If receiving love, help, or support feels uncomfortable, even though a part of you deeply craves it, this episode is for you.

We’re exploring hyper-independence: where it comes from, how it quietly shapes your relationships, and why control often hides beneath self-reliance.

Whether you tend to overfunction for others, downplay your needs, or keep people at arm’s length, this will hit home.

I’ll walk you through:

  • What hyper-independence really looks like (the obvious and less obvious signs)
  • The nervous system root of not 'needing anyone'
  • How this pattern blocks emotional intimacy, even with the right people
  • Why emotional receptivity feels vulnerable, and how to practice it
  • A more balanced way to relate: interdependence

Plus: some real-life stories from my own journey, and practical ways to start softening, receiving, and being seen.

If you'd like support healing your relationship patterns, you can book a free 1:1 consultation call with Jenelle.

This is for you if you're in a relationship and would like to overcome blocks, create more depth and intimacy, and fortify your connection, OR you're single and are looking to shift dating/relationship patterns so you can call in the love you want.
