Stop Losing Yourself in Love | Ep 120

Most women do not break down from love. They break down from abandoning themselves to keep it.


This week on From Mrs. to Ms., Andrea Knoche sits down once again with psychologist and TEDx TALK Speaker Dr. Etel Leit for a raw and transformative conversation about self-love, boundaries and the patterns that keep us trapped in relationships that do not support our growth.

Andrea and Dr. Leit dive into the truth behind people pleasing, why so many women lose themselves in relationships and how childhood wounds and generational conditioning shape the way we love. They explore the emotional toll of constantly managing other people’s needs, the silent burnout that follows and the moment many women finally ask themselves, “What about me?”

Dr. Leit opens up about her own journey through adversity and addiction in her family, sharing powerful lessons about resilience, forgiveness and the courage it takes to build a relationship rooted in honesty instead of fear. Her insights offer a roadmap for choosing yourself without guilt, learning to communicate your needs without apology and breaking the cycles that have held you back.

If you have ever struggled with boundaries, lost yourself in someone else’s expectations or felt disconnected from your own voice, this conversation will speak directly to your heart. This episode is your reminder that self-love is not selfish and choosing yourself is the beginning of every healthy relationship you will ever have.

Tune in for an empowering, compassionate and deeply relatable exploration of how to stop performing love and start living authentically.
