Series 9: The Wall and the Wonderland: When They Don’t Want to Meet You There
Episode 159: The Locked Garden: When You’re Not Allowed In Their Inner World
In Wonderland, some gardens sparkle with beauty—yet remain hidden behind locked gates. No matter how curious you are, no matter how much you knock, the door won’t open.
In relationships, it can feel the same when someone walls off their inner world, keeping their thoughts, feelings, and true self out of reach.
In this episode, we’ll explore the pain of standing outside someone’s “locked garden,” wanting closeness but only meeting silence, secrecy, or barriers.
We’ll talk about the longing, the self-doubt it creates, and the toll it takes when connection is always just out of reach.
And most importantly—we’ll uncover how to stop waiting at the gate and instead nurture your own garden, where honesty and openness can finally take root.
