HE'S USING YOU! - You MUST WALK AWAY Fro...

Impact Theory
About this episode

The relationships you were in that made you doubt yourself because of what someone else told you about you. The times that you tried to stand up for yourself and your partner flipped the whole argument around and had you buying into lies and made the truth so blurry you couldn’t trust what you were seeing and hearing with your own eyes and ears.

Staying in a relationship like that is self-destructive. You can’t stay just to keep the peace for everyone else while you suffer in silence. You can’t continue letting yourself down because you try to set a boundary and your partner stomps all over it and mocks you for even trying to have one.

Today’s guest, Audrina Patridge, is the MTV reality show star of The Hills and author of the book, Choices: To The Hills and Back Again. She’s sharing the results she experienced from being a chronic people pleaser, and a woman stuck in toxic relationships living with the regret of bad decisions and wrong choices without any consideration for the consequences she would have to face. Audrina shares how she was able to break out of that and start identifying the areas she most needed boundaries and who the enablers were in her life that needed to go.

You can break out of toxic relationships, these are solid tips and examples of how you can start on that path of healing and self-love today…
