There's a version of abuse that presents as calm and reasonable. It doesn't look chaotic, and at first, it doesn't even feel that way. It feels quiet and measured. It sounds like someone who wants to work through things. Someone who seems thoughtful and emotionally attuned.Under the surface, there's control, pressure, and a constant pull to make you question whether your reactions are valid, whether your needs are too much, and whether you're the one creating the problem.In this episode, I share a case study from my own experience—one that illustrates how the cycle of emotional abuse can play out through over-explaining, emotional caretaking, and subtle self-betrayal.If you've ever felt like your nervous system was screaming while your partner calmly told you everything was fine, this episode will help you name what's happening.This episode is part of Unhooked, my private podcast series on mapping the cycle of abuse—especially the kind that doesn't look like abuse from the outside.Support the show*New Course*: Unhooked: Map the Cycle of Abuse in your Relationship Website: Emotional Abuse Coach and high-conflictdivorcecoaching.comInstagram: @emotionalabusecoachEmail: jessica@jessicaknightcoaching.com{Substack} Blog About Recovering from Abuse {E-Book} How to Break Up with a Narcissist{Course} Identify Signs of Abuse and Begin to Heal{Free Resource} Canned Responses for Engaging with an Abusive Partner

Send us a textYour toxic relationships, stubborn cravings, and intrusive thoughts might not even be your own. This is a unique podcast episode because it's an excerpt from a podcast where I was the one being interviewed (by fellow intuitive / healer Manouk Vink). I share my journey into the world of intuitive healing – a path that began when my young daughter started seeing "shadow people" in her bedroom. I also talk about my childhood encounters with dark energies, from being physically pulled from my bed by unseen forces to witnessing Ouija boards moving independently. These experiences ultimately led her to develop powerful modalities for helping others disconnect from energetic attachments that keep them stuck in cycles of pain and limitation.The conversation demystifies how energetic cords and hooks work in our relationships, explaining how we unconsciously exchange emotions, thoughts, and even soul pieces with others. I also reveal that even seemingly innocent actions like complaining about an ex on social media create energetic rituals with real consequences. When we remain connected to past relationships, we're literally carrying fragments of other people within our energy fields – making it impossible to fully heal and move forward.I also share my perspective on difficult relationships as soul contracts. I explain that those who hurt us most in this lifetime may have been souls who deeply loved us in past lives, volunteering to play challenging roles that catalyze our growth. This reframing transforms our understanding of pain and trauma, revealing the perfect design behind our most difficult experiences.For mothers especially, I offer game-changing wisdom on prioritizing self-care without guilt. My "37 minutes" technique for giving undivided attention while maintaining strong personal boundaries demonstrates how self-prioritization ultimately creates happier, healthier families.This conversation isn't just theoretical – it's filled with practical techniques for distinguishing between your thoughts and external influences, cutting energetic cords, and reclaiming your authentic power. If you've ever felt inexplicably drawn to unhealthy relationships or situations, this episode illuminates the invisible forces that might be at play and offers a pathway to true energetic sovereignty.To start on your own path, make sure to grab a 1:1 here.Support the showJoin Unveiled - The Membership here.

If you've ever found yourself stuck in a one-sided relationship—where you're the fixer, the rescuer, the peacekeeper—this episode is your wake-up call. In this powerful episode, best-selling author and codependency recovery expert Lisa A. Romano uncovers the invisible thread between childhood emotional neglect and codependent behaviors in adulthood. If you: Feel overly responsible for other people's emotions Stay in toxic relationships hoping things will change Obsess over your partner's moods Feel like you've lost your sense of self ...you're not broken.

But now that you know, it becomes your power. Lisa explains how codependency is a subconscious trauma response rooted in unmet emotional needs and a lack of safety in childhood. We mistakenly learn that love must be earned through fixing others—especially the ones who hurt us. But this only perpetuates the pain and draws us toward emotionally unavailable or narcissistic partners. In this episode, you'll discover:  How early childhood trauma wires your brain for codependency  Why rescuing others is a subconscious survival strategy  Why narcissists and toxic partners are drawn to codependents  How to spot the thinking traps of codependency  Actionable steps to reconnect with your authentic self Whether you're healing from a codependent marriage or waking up to your past for the first time, this episode will help you break free from emotional enmeshment and start living from a place of empowerment and emotional clarity.

ALL human brains are wired for safety.  But because of the childhood trauma and dysfunctional patterns you grew up with, that wiring is intensified in your brain.  ‘Creating safety' is what guides ALL your decisions, to the point that it's prioritized over achieving new goals (like weight loss).  The core issue is that safety feels OUT of your control;  You don't realize it, but you learned to rely on an UNSTABLE person to create that sense of safety, which only leaves you pleasing and appeasing, trying to manage someone else's volatile emotions and actions.  Not only has this rewired your brain, but it's conditioned your nervous system to live in such a heightened state of fight/flight.  It's time to break the cycle.  If you truly want to lose weight and keep it off for life, you have to first HEAL your core wounds, heal your relationship with food, and heal your relationship with yourself.  I'll show you how.  Schedule your free Break the Cycle Call and I'll help you better understand how these cycles play out in your own life, so that you know exactly where and how to break them.  www.bodyyoucrave.com/btc   PS - I'm on a mission to help 30 people lose 30 pounds this year!

To thrive after narcissistic abuse, you will need to change your entire mindset toward narcissistic people in your life. The key to maintaining your sanity is not to take their attempts at baiting you into circular conversations where they get to act out their need to persecute others with self-righteous indignation. If you confuse love with guilt and obligation, and especially if you have high empathy and struggle to end toxic relationships due to abandonment issues, letting go can trigger complex trauma symptoms such as a burning brain, heart palpitations, brain fog, mental confusion, and emotional paralysis. One of the most difficult things in the world to accept is that sometimes the people you love are built to not hear you, although their words may say otherwise. When dealing with a high-conflict person, you will notice that they escalate drama, problems, and issues in relationships instead of de-escalating them. Narcissists need flying monkeys, and the more they have, the more emboldened they are to attack, confuse, persecute, vilify, diminish, and discard you or any feelings or opinions you have.  In this episode, Lisa A. Romano, Breakthrough Life Coach, explains why changing your mindset toward the narcissistic people in your life can preserve your sanity, no matter how tough it might be to accept and let go.  What is your peace of mind worth to you? If you are ready to take the journey within to heal the core issues that result in you're being entangled in narcissistic relationships, join Lisa and her team of seasoned life coaches this July for The 12 Week Breakthrough Journey back to the divine self.  Register early and save $500  Register Early and Gain Exclusive Access to Lisa

Emotional eating is such a common habit to have after experiencing an emotionally abusive or emotionally neglectful relationship.  Not just because we use food to escape difficult people and circumstances,  But because those dysfunctional relationships taught us that our emotions were wrong, bad, not allowed, or completely dismissed.  So even after you leave or change the relationship dynamic, you're still afraid of certain emotions. It's not safe to have them or feel them.  So what do you do? You eat to avoid them.  This is why it's ESSENTIAL to heal from toxic relationships if you want to be able to lose weight and never fear gaining it back again.   You need time, exposure, and practice thinking differently and telling yourself new stories, so that you can truly lose weight and keep it off for life.  And this is exactly what I'll help you do.  It's time to create the life and body you crave.
