Break the Cycle of Toxic Love for Good

Sheleana Aiyana, author of Becoming the One, joins Lewis Howes to explore the roots of toxic relationship patterns. She shares how childhood attachment wounds, nervous system dysregulation, and unhealed trauma keep people stuck in repeating cycles. Drawing on body-based healing methods and the work of Peter Levine, Harville Hendrix, and the Gottman Institute, she offers practices like inner child re-parenting, shadow vows, and somatic regulation to break free. The conversation covers the father wound, what conscious love asks of us, and how to build a relationship that supports healing rather than repeating old pain.
