Drawing from her personal experiences and extensive trauma work, she explains how flirting can be a form of energy vampirism, where one seeks validation and attention to escape their own discomfort. Brianne shares candid stories from her own life, including her year-long journey of abstaining from flirting to heal her trauma responses. She emphasizes the importance of self-awareness and urges listeners to examine their motives behind flirting. Is it a genuine connection or a way to escape personal insecurities?
