This is the final episode of a three-part series with my lovely friend Tava. If you have not yet listened to the first two episodes then don't you dare listen to this one just yet! Scroll back a few episodes and start with Pay it Forward, Tell Your Story followed by Snapchat is a No and then jump right back into this episode!To recap the journey we've been on the last few weeks- this is a personal story of finding yourself in an incredibly draining and toxic relationship and the roller coaster of emotions that comes with falling in love with a psychopath. In this episode, Tava spills the tea on how she uncovered the truth about her fiance's infidelities and gives us a glimpse into the aftermath of what it's like untangling from this type of relationship. Spoiler alert- it's probably going to be one of the hardest things you may ever go through- but the silver lining is, as Tava so beautifully shares, the personal growth that happens when you overcome this hell of a hurdle. So if you have recently broken up with a manipulative relationship, then take a minute to appreciate the strength it took to walk away and acknowledge how far you've come.  If only gets better friends, I promise you!Your Host,KrisxxClick here to book your FREE 45-min consultation with meSign up here for my upcoming Empowerment WorkshopGet your tickets here to Vixen Valentines happening on Feb 10th!Check out my FREE RESOURCE LIBRARY Let's be friends on Instagram @KrisZervas and TikTok @kriszervas

If you're interested in learning more about how to spot warning signs of manipulation then click here to sign up for information on my upcoming empowerment workshop. In this workshop, I'll be covering what the sneaky signs of manipulation look like, tricks on how to spot manipulative people early on, and how to protect yourself and your peace!Originally I planned to make this recording a 2 part series but as I sat down to finish edits, I decided it was best to go for a 3 part series on this one. There are so many details and parts of Tava's share that deserve to be processed and understood. Her story very clearly displays a classic example of what the cycle of narcissistic abuse looks like. Phase 1- Idealization. Phase 2- Devaluation. Phase 3- Discard.In part 1 from last week, Tava describes the love bombing, false self, future faking, and data mining that her ex displays which is what happens during the idealization stage. Last week you also started to see signs of devaluation which include blame shifting, emotional neglect, and gaslighting. These manipulation tactics carry over into this week's episode part 2. All classic textbook narcissistic manipulation tactics. Your Host,KrisxxClick here to book your FREE 45-min consultation with meSign up here for my upcoming Empowerment WorkshopGet your tickets here to Vixen Valentines happening on Feb 10th!Check out my FREE RESOURCE LIBRARY Let's be friends on Instagram @KrisZervas and TikTok @kriszervas

Have you ever met someone and within minutes you feel energetically connected to them? Not in a romantic way but in a the sense of relatable life experience. This person you know nothing about but you can just tell from the way they carry themselves and the way they speak about life that you know on a deep emotional level what they have been through in life and you feel this sense of familiarity. They just get it and you really see them and know the battles they've fought. This is exactly how I felt meeting Tava who is my guest for this episode. Tava and I were introduced  through a mutual friend and it took us just one round of cocktails at her lovely home to realize we had some shared life experiences and were meant to cross paths. In our sit down together, she so courageously opens her heart and tells her story about how the man she fell hard and fast in love with, turned out to be a life altering experience. Make sure you listen all the way till the end because that cliff hanger will leave you coming back for more next week on part two.I want to also give you all a fun little business update on what I've been working on over here since going Entrepenuer full time!I have rebranded myself as Self-Empowerment Coach and oh boy does this feel so freaking good guys! You may have noticed in some of my past episodes I referred to myself as the breakup coach and for those of you that have ever had a side hustle, ran your own business or work in marketing- you know how tough it can be to brand yourself! Breakup coach was something that my business coaches and I had landed on back in the summer last year when I first launched my coaching business and although it was catchy and direct - there was always something that didn't quite sit right for me. And when I think about what my ideal clients look like and by that I actually mean - what they feel and desire from a guidance perspective - it's a combination of education and support. Education and support are the two main components of empowerment. So let me break down for you guys what I do: I coach people who have experienced a track record of unhealthy relationships (work/family/romantic) in their lives and have hit a breaking point where they want better for themselves. They desire to prioritize self-growth and establish a relationship with themselves that will stand the test of time. They need to deeply root themselves in who they are- morals, values, and beliefs. My coaching practice focuses on 3 main developmental areas: self-fulfillment, self-love, and self-confidence. A beautiful trio that when focused on thoughtfully with professional guidance will lead you to the most EMPOWERED version of yourself. I like to call this your “You Era”. Word of mouth is so incredibly powerful my friends so If I can ask you right now listener on the other end - who do you know in your life that could benefit from my coaching services? A friend? A sibling? A partner? A coworker? Maybe you? For a limited time I'm offering 45-minute free consultations for prospective coaching clients so pass this episode along or drop a link to my website in someone's DMs and spread the word.

Last week was Part 1 of an interview series I did with guest Kristin Batykefer. If you haven't listened to last week's episode then stop right now and go back to episode #35 titled The Girl in the Van Next Door to get all the juicy details of this interview. For the many of you that already listened to Part 1, here's a quick recap of where we left off…. Kristin is a young soon-to-be single mom that went through one hell of traumatizing separation from her husband of 9 years. As if finding out that your partner and the father of your child is having an affair and has been hiding it from you for an entire year isn't traumatic enough…. Add on to that that you were at the time, living out of a travel van with your husband, 2-year-old daughter, and your dog and the mistress of this affair is a fellow van traveler (who just happens to be a pretty famous travel blog influencer) who was actively pursuing a friendship with you AND is married herself… all while sleeping with your husband. You can't make this stuff up guys!So go back and listen to last week's episode before you kick off Part 2 so that you don't miss any important parts of this crazy roller coaster of a ride story. There will be a part 3 next week which is the part of this conversation where Kristin shares where she's at today, how co-parenting with her soon-to-be ex-husband is coming along, what more she's learned through this experience about herself and how she's creating a life for herself that prioritizes her happiness in this next chapter.Don't forget to leave a star rating on the show and share this episode with a friend!Enjoy part two of the tea this week friends!KrisGuest: Follow Kristin Batykefer on Instagram @beachykefer and TikTok @beachykeferFollow me on Instagram @KrisZervas and TikTok @kriszervasWatch full episodes on YouTube channelNew episodes drop every Wednesday!
