Forgotten Love: Volume 2 - Why Have We Forgotten to Love?, acclaimed author
Diana Deak continues her groundbreaking exploration of emotional disconnection, shifting the focus inward to reveal the personal, cultural, and generational reasons love feels so distant in our modern lives.
Through 20 insightful and healing chapters, Deak unpacks the emotional numbness, inherited pain, and societal conditioning that have taught us to fear vulnerability and suppress empathy. With profound clarity, she shows how love has become an afterthought in a world built on productivity, self-protection, and image-and how we can reverse that tide.

- Why we normalize emotional numbness and disconnection
- The intergenerational wounds and defenses we inherit
