Navigating Toxic Masculinity

from The Awakened Heart: A Podcast for Healing Women · host Autumn Moran

We name the real-world patterns of toxic masculinity and the ways numbness, rage, and control show up as silence, intimidation, gaslighting, and guilt. I keep the focus on safety and give you clear scripts so you can stop shrinking and start protecting yourself. • why understanding harm never equals tolerating it • how shutdown and stonewalling become a weapon • what rage signals in the body and why it escalates • the “shadow side” of adapting by walking on eggshells • boundary scripts for withdrawal, aggression, gaslighting, and manipulation • three-question safety check before you engage • grounding breath and the reminder: “I am not responsible for his healing. I am responsible for my safety.” Ready for Deeper Support?Somatic Healing Group  - JOIN NOW!
