Episode 20: How To Distance Yourself From A Toxic Person

In this very candid episode, I’m helping solve a problem that so many of you have reached out about – how to create space between you and a toxic person. Toxic (or unhealthy, manipulative, narcissistic, emotionally or psychologically abusive) people can make your life a living HELL. They can create so much unnecessary stress and drama and trauma and let’s be real - ain’t nobody got time for that. I’m creating this episode to help you navigate life with one in it, especially if it’s someone who you love or have to be around. I want to help you to avoid the heartaches and headaches I’ve endeared first-hand what it’s like to be in an intimate and vulnerable scenario with a toxic person. In today's episode, I’m openly sharing about my experience being in an unhealthy intimate relationship with a toxic person. Life with one can be a far from paradise and you deserve to be happy! So just as it’s important to talk about ways to pave your path to paradise, it’s equally as important to have conversations around things that could delay, diminish and/ or hurt your process or progress. By knowing how to handle one, you can avoid a lot of drama, wasted time and energy, disappointment, losing yourself, heartbreak and headaches in your life.
