Well, this story is kinda crazy. And what's even crazier? Sometimes we keep bad behavior hidden, secret, and behind closed doors, and it's only when we start to talk about it that we can finally admit that IT WAS NOT OKAY. 

This week, Louise shares a wild story about her ex and *THAT* thing he did in Marbella. She explores why we accept bad behavior, why we justify it as love, and how, once we start healing, we start to see it for what it truly is—unacceptable. Louise chats through the crazy story and its connection to:

• Our childhood.
• Our nervous system.
• Familial patterns (and how these don't always make sense).
• Low self-esteem, self-respect, and self-worth.

And so much more!

Join us in this deeply personal and vulnerable episode as Louise recounts heart-wrenching incidents from probably the most toxic relationship of her life, how it opened the doors to her healing journey, and what light at the end of the tunnel of a “passionate” (read: abusive) relationship looks like in the form of five hard-hitting lessons she learned in therapy.

🆘 Trigger Warning: This episode contains references to relationship abuse. 🆘
