Impact Theory
About this episode

Welcome back for part 2 of this mind-blowing conversation on Women of Impact, where my homie, trauma-informed psychologist, Mariel Buque PhD continues to expose the world of manipulation. 

Stick around and dive deep with us into the idea of holding a relationship funeral to ensure toxic exes stay in the past where they belong. Discover how relentless a manipulative partner can get to keep you under control, and learn how to break free from their grasp. Mariel shares insights, tools, and strategies that will help you see through the manipulation, set up manipulator proof boundaries and reclaim your sense of self. 

Get ready for a revelation-packed episode that will leave you feeling stronger and more confident than ever before.

If you’re ready to deep dive on healing intergenerational trauma and breaking the toxic cycles you find yourself in, check out Mariel’s book, Break the Cycles: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0593472497

“Everyone should know what narcissism looks like, what manipulation looks like, the ways that these people hoover their way into your life, how they suck you into cycles, we should all feel some kind of protection from these experiences in relationships.” -Mariel Buque
