About this listen
Someone asks how you are, and you hear yourself say “Fine, busy” before you have even checked. Nothing bad happened when you were growing up. There was dinner on the table, a ride to practice, a report card on the fridge. And still, nobody really asked how you were.
Daniel knows that feeling, even if he could never have named it. He is thirty-nine, a reliable engineer, the calm one in every room. Then, on an ordinary December evening, his partner Priya says quietly: “I never know what you feel.”
Over one winter, from Christmas lights on his parents’ house to a February evening on the porch steps, this self-help audiobook follows Daniel as he begins to notice what was missing. Short stories from the lives of Daniel, his sister Claire, and Priya sit alongside clear, honest explanations of childhood emotional neglect and gentle guided exercises you can do while you listen.
You will explore what emotional neglect means when nothing was obviously wrong, why feelings and emotions can be so hard to name and why the body is often the first place to look, the difference between feeling numb and feeling calm, how to meet your inner child as a simple image that makes kindness easier, why doing everything alone can feel safer than asking for help, and how adult children can understand their parents without pretending that nothing was missed – including whether to talk to them at all.
There are no diagnoses, no checklists, and no promises here, only small, practical steps toward naming your feelings, needing people a little more, and building a steadier sense of self-worth.
Book 2 of the Breaking the Cycle series, read by Livia Marent, AI voice, with an ensemble of AI voices.
