The Refined Her Podcast

What happens after you finally walk away from a toxic relationship? In this episode, we dive into the emotional aftermath- the part no one really prepares you for. Healing isn't always instant or empowering at first. Sometimes it's a messy journey you have to walk through, filled with emotions , shame and guilt with self-doubt trying to take the front seat.In this episode I open up about what led to my healing journey after getting out of a 6 year toxic relationship with a narcissist. I talk about what the healing journey can really look like after leaving a toxic situation: the internal battles, the questioning, and the quiet moments where you're learning to trust yourself again. We'll talk about the familiar voices of guilt and shame that shows up from childhood to distort your perspective, and what it means to take your power back. I give you step by step keys on how to began your healing journey.Apply to work with me: ⁠https://forms.gle/GjEqLBHvBZbTgX5y5Join our free community: ⁠https://www.facebook.com/groups/1180710473442369⁠Mentorship 1:1 ⁠https://forms.gle/oX3aYjBVHhPDrTEGA

In this episode, Garrika opens up about the truth behind “high pain tolerance” — and why it’s not the superpower we were taught to believe it is.She speaks to the woman who endured too much. The woman who learned to survive instead of receive. The woman who mistook chaos for chemistry and strength for silence.Garrika shares her personal childhood experiences that shaped her understanding of love and led her to choose toxic partners — including remaining in a toxic relationship for six years. She unpacks how unhealed wounds can normalize dysfunction and why endurance is often a trauma response, not a badge of honor.This episode dives into what real healing looks like and the uncomfortable but necessary transition from toxic love to safe love. Garrika explores what it means to go from choosing emotionally unavailable, harmful men to allowing yourself to be loved by a safe man — and why healthy love can feel unfamiliar, even unsettling, at first.If you’ve ever confused pain with passion, or survival with strength, this conversation is for you.It’s time to stop glorifying endurance and start choosing peace.Apply to work with me - Lets build your businesshttps://forms.gle/J1VLGu55GtDkYPcH81:1 Mentorship https://forms.gle/oX3aYjBVHhPDrTEGAShop candles https://www.therefinedher.com/category/all-productsJoin our free private community https://www.facebook.com/groups/1180710473442369
