How to Cut Out a Toxic Person | Rewind

MATTHEW HUSSEY
About this episode

Why do we stay in relationships that erode our confidence, self-worth, and happiness? In this episode, we dive deep into the concept of trauma bonds and how empathy—one of our greatest strengths—can become our biggest weakness in toxic relationships. We’ll explore why we get stuck in these cycles, the danger of hoping someone will change, and how to reclaim your power by prioritizing your own well-being. If you’ve ever felt trapped in a relationship that’s draining your energy and warping your reality, this conversation is for you. Tune in for practical insights, empowering advice, and a reminder that your compassion should always extend to yourself first.
