This is one of the hardest parts about leaving a toxic relationship.

This goes back to crossing your boundaries. It is one of the tactics that the toxic personality uses to gain control. I don't know if the particular person that sent this question in is still in a toxic relationship or if they've removed themselves from a toxic relationship and they're just dealing with trying to set boundaries in the aftermath of a toxic relationship. But when you set a boundary who is taking control, you are right? Can you please not eat dinner on the couch right after I vacuum the floor in the living room? You just took control of that situation. You set a boundary.

As you find yourself listening to my podcasts, knowing I've been where you are, be reminded of the one thing we miss in seeking validation of our situations.

This is the most important thing I will teach. It is the most important thing for you to learn, grasp, accept, and act upon if you are seeking inner peace.

In this conversation, I explore the complexities of emotional wiring and how it affects relationships, particularly with toxic personalities. The importance of understanding different personality types to navigate your future decisions effectively is imperative. Your relationship will remain confusing causing self doubt until you know them as well as you know yourself.

Announcing the "You've Got To Be Kidding Me - Validation Session is now open to all who are seeking to find answers to why "they can't just act normal". The validation session, aims to provide clarity and insight for individuals struggling in their relationships, helping them to recognize their worth and make informed decisions about their future.

As I celebrate yet another year of life & reflect on my growth journey, I particularly want to celebrate the understanding and managing my own emotions. In the context of toxic relationships having and owning your own feelings is very difficult to do. The impact of emotional control by others was very significant in my life, even long after the toxic relationship had ended. The full understanding of emotional abuse, and the importance of taking control of one's feelings is true freedom. I cannot emphasize enough the significance of naming your feelings/emotions, setting boundaries, and recognizing your right to emotional freedom.

The conversation serves as a challenge and guide for listeners to reclaim their emotional independence and navigate their feelings authentically.
