Episode 23: Breaking Toxic Relationship Patterns and How to Talk to Your Girlfriends About It

from No Boundaries: Black Girl Magic Edition with Anousha Nzume · host Anousha Nzume

We all have friends who have toxic dating patterns. They go back to the terrible boyfriend or find a different version of him at every club you go to together. Or maybe they’re the problem (no shade) and they’re being toxic and can’t see it. Either way, it has to get addressed one way or another. This episode is not to victim blame anyone, so let’s get that out of the way. At the same time, recognizing toxic relationship patterns and breaking them is how we heal. And we feel like we have a right to speak on it, since we’re both working on breaking our own toxic relationship patterns. In this week’s episode, we’re talking about breaking toxic relationship patterns and how to talk to your girlfriends about it. Because if we let this go on, it could go on forever. And we mean forever! Some of our friends are in their 50s, dealing with the same kind of man over and over again. Tune in to hear how we identified our own toxic relationship patterns and how we talked to our girlfriends about it. Enjoy!
