TB9, S12, E12 — Author/Life Coach Stephen Paul Edwards: The Venus Flytrap (And You're the Fly)

from The Back 9 - Midlife, Best Life.

Four marriages led to four divorces. You'd think a successful, well-known international life coach would know the signs. But when he met a former supermodel, he walked straight into a relationship he couldn't control, couldn't fix, and couldn't leave. Stephen Paul Edwards tells a story that's as seductive as it is destructive. His attraction was instant. The warning signs were obvious. The chaos kept increasing.  Yet he still stayed. Because when you're the fly in the trap, it doesn't feel like a trap. It feels like connection. Like passion. Like something you don't want to lose. We've been there.  We get why so many men stay in toxic relationships.  And in this episode we hear the details of this story when intensity masks dysfunction, and how even self-aware, successful people ignore what they know deep down. It's about recognizing the pattern, owning your role in it, and finding the strength to finally break free…on The Back 9.
