Episode Description
This episode is uncomfortable on purpose.
We talk a lot about toxic relationships, narcissists, and external harm—but what about the ways we hurt ourselves?
In this episode, I unpack self-abuse in its quiet, socially accepted forms:
Staying where you’re not respected
Ignoring your body, your intuition, your exhaustion
Overworking, over-explaining, over-forgiving
Choosing familiarity over peace
Calling it “strength” when it’s actually self-betrayal
This isn’t about shame.
It’s about awareness.
Because once you see the patterns, you can stop repeating them.
And once you stop abusing yourself, everything else has to change.
If you’ve ever wondered why healing feels slow—or why you keep ending up back in the same emotional place—this episode will hit close.
