Trying to fill a hole #73 Daily Dose of Dawn at dawn 🌞
Emotional emptiness can quietly shape your relationships, choices, and sense of self without you even realizing it. In Daily Dose of Dawn at dawn #73, Dawn Super talks about what it’s like to live with an unrecognized emotional “hole,” how trauma and attachment patterns form around it, and why healing often requires learning to fill that space yourself. This post is for anyone who feels stuck, anxious in relationships, or disconnected from joy—and wants practical mindset strategies to come back to themselves and rediscover that Happy Matters.

You don't always notice you have a hole when you have one, but you notice everyone else’s once you close yours. Overcoming trauma often means moving away from people.
When I had a hole, it was like a cosmic vacuum of toxicity, an anxious void, and attachment. I don't know if you've ever played peek-a-boo, but that's what my emotional engagement was like in relationships. It was kind of like, “If I can't see you, you don't love me.” It’s the kind of mind game that can really set you back, and I wanted to talk about what I did about it.
All these stories I share come down to one thing: mindset magic that helps you cut the noise, deal with your triggers, and enjoy at least some of your life.
I'm doing my How to Live Happy Matters talk live at the Topanga Library in California. If you're local, I'd love to see you.
When I first started planning my talk, I didn’t want to include the three steps. I figured if people read them ahead of time, they wouldn't come. But the reality is, if reading it was enough, they’d already be living this way and they wouldn’t need to come.
People get stuck and they don't know how to unstuck themselves. And Happy Matters is a lefty-loosey, righty-tighty. It helps you remember that there is good in your life.
I was miserable for 41 years, and until I discovered I had a hole and took on trying to fill it myself, everything took me away from Happy Matters. It was a constant having to pull myself back into it. And once I got on my own side, it became a lot easier. So now I'm teaching it.
If you want to go deeper, check out the vid below: What happens if I don't need people to like me? I was very needy and that showed up in poor social skills for the majority of my life. Letting go of that feeling of needing people to like me helped me be someone people really wanted to hang around with a lot more.
