Guilt can be a guide or it can be a cage.
The kind of guilt that helps us grow?
That’s the pro-social kind. It nudges us to own our oopsies, repair what we can, and show up in integrity.
But the kind that keeps you spiraling in shame for just being human? Yeah, that kind’s just patriarchy in your nervous system.
In this episode of Feminist Wellness, we’re unpacking the difference and giving you tools to shift from self-blame to self-trust.
Ready to ditch the guilt that’s not serving you? Go give Episode 85 a re-listen. It’s a juicy one.

My loves, if deep breathing makes you feel more anxious instead of calm… you’re not broken.
Your body’s just doing what it knows to keep you safe.
When the nervous system is on high alert, even a deep inhale can feel like too much.
That’s not resistance - it’s wisdom.
That’s why I made these meditations for you.
To offer your body rhythm, grounding, and gentle support - right where you are.
They’re short.
They’re free.
They’re yours.
Download your free guide (link in my bio) because you deserve nervous system care that meets you with tenderness, not pressure. 🩷
You skipped a day of journaling, meditation, or movement and now your brain says, “Why even bother?”
That’s not laziness, my love.
That’s the all-or-nothing trap.
This survival strategy made sense when the stakes felt high. When love, belonging and safety felt like they hinged on perfection.
But now? It’s keeping you in cycles of burnout, self-blame and emotional outsourcing.
In today’s revisit to podcast episode 194, we’re breaking down:
The science behind all-or-nothing thinking
How it fuels codependency and perfectionism
Why it’s so hard to “just go back” after you slip
What self-worth really looks like
Slide through this carousel for the reminders your nervous system has been craving.

Breaking generational patterns from emotionally immature parents is like being the first person in your family tree to learn that emotions don't have to be managed that conflict doesn't have to be catastrophic and that love doesn't have to be earned.
You're interrupting cycles that have probably been running for generations - patterns of emotional avoidance people-pleasing conflict avoidance and conditional love that got passed down like family heirlooms nobody wanted but everyone kept inheriting.
The patterns you learned weren't your fault but healing them is your responsibility.
Not because you owe it to anyone else but because you deserve to live differently than the people who raised you.
You get to be the person who learns that feelings are safe to have that boundaries create connection instead of destroying it that you can be loved for who you are instead of what you do.
Breaking these patterns isn't just about your own healing - it's about changing what gets passed down to the next generation.
Whether you have children or not you're influencing every relationship you're in every person you interact with every family system you're part of. You get to be the ancestor your future generations thank you for.
The one who said the cycle stops here and did the work to make it true.

For so many of us, relationships have felt like a trap:
Either you’re totally self-sufficient and “don’t need anyone”
or you lose yourself trying to earn love, approval, and safety.
But real connection lives in the middle ground.
It’s called interdependence.
It looks like:
Trusting your own choices without chasing reassurance
Receiving care without making it your lifeline
Speaking your needs without the fear you’ll be abandoned
If that sounds unfamiliar, you’re not alone.
When emotional outsourcing is your blueprint, interdependence can feel foreign, as if you’re either too much or not enough.
But it is possible to stay connected without self-abandoning.
Swipe through to see the difference between dependence, independence, and interdependence. 💗

You were the strong one.
The responsible one.
The one who held it all together when no one else could.
You became a rock.
You became an island.
But my love…
Your body hasn’t forgotten the weight it’s been carrying.
The tension in your shoulders.
The tightness in your chest.
The exhaustion that won’t quit.
Because strength without support isn’t resilience, it’s survival.
My sweet love, your nervous system is whispering (maybe even screaming):
Come home.
Come back to you.
You don’t have to carry it all anymore.
🩷 Tag a brave heart who has been strong for too long.

Insecure attachment isn’t a character flaw, it’s a nervous system survival response.
When connection has felt unsafe, our bodies adapt.
We shape-shift.
We self-abandon.
We ask, often without realizing: Who do I need to be so you won’t leave me?
Whether you lean anxious, avoidant, or disorganized, this isn’t about being broken. It’s about your nervous system doing its brilliant, protective thing to keep you safe in the face of relational pain.
Episode 184 of Feminist Wellness dives deep into the roots of insecure attachment, how it shows up in your body, and how you can begin the journey back to secure connection, one nervous-system-safe step at a time.
Raise your hand if you’ve ever said, “I’m fine” when you absolutely weren’t.
False positivity is that internalized voice telling you to smile through pain, downplay your struggles and never be a “burden.”
But here’s the deal, my love: pretending you’re okay when you’re not doesn’t make you resilient. It keeps you disconnected, from your truth, your body and the support you deserve.
In this episode, I unpack the cultural, systemic and nervous system roots of false positivity and how to start honoring your real feelings without guilt or shame. Because radical honesty is radical healing.
How has false positivity shown up in your life? Let’s talk about it in the comments. ⬇️

Dealing with emotionally immature parents as an adult is like being forced to play a game where they make up the rules as they go along and you always lose.
You keep thinking that if you just find the right words set the perfect boundary or explain your feelings clearly enough they'll finally get it.
They'll finally see how their behavior affects you and choose to be different.
But here's the hard truth:
Emotionally immature people don't suddenly develop emotional intelligence because you need them to. They're not going to become the parent you needed them to be when you were small.
They're probably not going to apologize for the ways they hurt you.
They're most likely not going to validate your experience or take responsibility for their impact. And waiting for them to change is keeping you stuck in patterns that no longer serve you.
The work is learning to have a relationship with them based on who they actually are not who you wish they could be.
It's setting boundaries that protect your peace instead of trying to manage their emotions.
It's getting your emotional needs met by people who actually have the capacity to meet them.
You can't heal your childhood by getting different reactions from the same people who hurt you.
But you can heal your childhood by giving yourself what you needed then and protecting yourself from what you don't need now.

Get unstuck, drop the anxiety and learn to live the intentional, purposeful life of your dreams. I’ll show you how.
Victoria Albina, NP, MPH is a Certified Life Coach, Breathwork Meditation Facilitator & Holistic Nurse Practitioner, and host of the podcast ‘Feminist Wellness.’ She is on a mission to help women raised by codependents and alcoholics to stop feeling anxious, stuck and overwhelmed so they can have better relationships with their partners, parents and themselves. She teaches women how to live with confidence and radical, unapologetic self-love, worldwide via the magic of the internet.
With 20 years in health & wellness, her work is the place where the science and the sacred meet - equal parts total nerd, modern-day witch, and asker-of-smart-questions. Victoria brings cognitive psychology, somatic healing, neuroscience and feminist theory to her work, providing both a unique framework for understanding the effects of the patriarchy and capitalism on women’s mental and physical health, and an effective yet simple protocol for rewriting harmful old thought patterns to release anxiety and insecurity and to feel confident instead.
Victoria started her wellness journey after a lifetime of being sick and navigating the complexities of living with and being raised by a family impacted by trauma and codependency. After 30 years of digestive issues, depression and anxiety, she healed herself through cutting edge Functional Medicine, herbal medicine and finally through nervous system healing and life coaching. While her health improved by healing her leaky gut, the true and lasting healing came by learning to manage her mind to let go of the self-doubt, approval-seeking and negative self-talk that were keeping her nervous system revved up, and her body paying the price. She now lives a life she loves, and her decades of illness are fuel for her desire to help women drop the rock of codependent thinking, stress and overwhelm, to live the lives of their dreams.
Victoria is certified as a Life Coach with The Life Coach School, the best boutique program in the country, and is a certified Breathwork Healing Facilitator leading groups in NYC and online. A UCSF-trained Nurse Practitioner, she has a Masters Degree in Public Health with a focus on environmental and international public health. A proud weirdo, she went to Oberlin College in the 90s, where she played women’s rugby and Yes! She has all her original teeth. A native of Mar del Plata, Argentina, she grew up in the Greatest State in the Union - Rhode Island. She lives in Brooklyn with her partner, loves to travel and lives for dark chocolate, yerba mate and of course, a good steak.
