442: Why You Stay in Unhealthy Relationships And What It *Actually* Takes to Break Free

With October being Domestic Violence Awareness Month, Monica unpacks the trauma-driven dynamics and layered complexities of unhealthy relationships—because violence isn’t always physical. It can also be emotional and mental, and its subtle patterns can chip away at your self-worth, intuition, and power over time. And we all deserve a relationship that actually feels like peace. Here’s what she’s getting into: 💦 The power of language and adding labels to ourselves💦 Why you keep attracting the same type of man over and over💦 The complexity of leaving an unhealthy relationship💦 The fundamental components of a healthy relationship💦 Honoring your needs in a relationship, and what happens if you don’t💦 The psychology of trauma bonds💦 How your trauma chooses your partner before you do💦 The missing ingredient in your boundaries (and why most women don’t know how to follow through) IMPORTANT NOTE: If you’re in a physically abusive situation and need immediate support, please call the National Domestic Violence Hotline at 800-799-7233 or visit thehotline.org. You are not alone, and help is available. +++++ As Mentioned In The Episode: ⇢ Order the BOOK — Becoming HER: https://www.becomingherbook.com/ ⇢ Listen to the episode — 401: It Ends With Us: Monica’s Unfiltered Breakdown of THE Movie & Book of the Year: https://monicayateshealth.com/blogs/podcast/401-it-ends-with-us-monica-s-unfiltered-breakdown-of-the-movie-book-of-the-year?_pos=1&_psq=it+ends+with+us&_ss=e&_v=1.0&_gl=1*k718c2*_ga*NzY0NzA0NTk4LjE3NTUyMTg1NjA.*_ga_XEFT8KE3Z9*czE3NTkxOTc0MjEkbzg2JGcxJHQxNzU5MTk3NDI1JGo1NiRsMCRoMA.. ⇢ Listen to the episode — 285: Are they a narcissist?: https://monicayateshealth.com/blogs/podcast/285-are-they-a-narcissist?_pos=1&_psq=narcissist&_ss=e&_v=1.0&_gl=1*1dpxe86*_ga*NzY0NzA0NTk4LjE3NTUyMTg1NjA.*_ga_XEFT8KE3Z9*czE3NTkxOTc0MjEkbzg2JGcxJHQxNzU5MTk3NDM4JGo0MyRsMCRoMA.. ⇢ Hop on the waitlist for — HER Year: https://monicayateshealth.com/pages/her-year-mastermind?utm_source=podcast&utm_medium=podcast&utm_campaign=waitlist-2025 ⇢ Don’t miss out on any updates for — The Immersion: https://monicayateshealth.com/pages/immersion?utm_source=podcast&utm_medium=podcast&utm_campaign=atlanta-2025 ⇢ Join the waitlist for — Queen Alchemy: https://monicayateshealth.com/pages/queen-alchemy?utm_source=podcast&utm_medium=podcast&utm_campaign=qa-16 ⇢ Get in the Boundaries masterclass: https://monicayateshealth.com/pages/boundaries-masterclass?utm_source=podcast&utm_medium=podcast&utm_campaign=evergreen_general ⇢ Monica’s Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/monicayateshealth ⇢ Full, SEARCHABLE Podcast Directory: https://monicayateshealth.com/blogs/feminine-as-f-ck-podcast/podcast-directory Remember to leave a written review on Apple Podcasts, screenshot it before you submit it, and email it to us at media@monicayateshealth.com to receive an exclusive meditation track as a 'thank you' from Monica. This podcast and its content is copyright of Monica Yates Health © and Feminine as F*ck ©.
