Why Some Empaths Quietly Cut Everyone Off (And Never Go Back) || DR. GABOR MATÉ ||

Some empaths don’t leave loudly.
They don’t explain.
They don’t argue.
They simply go quiet—and they never return.

This 14-minute motivational speech explores why deeply sensitive people sometimes cut everyone off, not out of cruelty, but out of survival. You’ll learn how early attachment wounds shape adult relationships, why over-giving becomes a trap, how compulsive habits form as coping—not weakness—and how the body remembers what the mind tries to forget.

This is about the moment an empath chooses peace over pain.
Distance over self-betrayal.
And finally comes home to themselves.

If you’ve ever wondered why you pulled away…
Or why someone sensitive vanished without explanation…
This talk will help you understand—with compassion.
