Podcasts about toxic relationships

In the aftermath of a toxic or narcissistic relationship, we can lose all sense of self. Whether our partner tried to steal our joy at every opportunity, or they wore down our self-esteem with endless arguments and cold-shoulder treatments . . . the end of a relationship like this will leave us feeling disoriented and lost, and it can be hard to rewire our brains and resume normal life once we're free.At this point, it can be unbelievably hard to trust other people again. Logically, we may understand that not everyone's like our ex . . . but emotionally, we see danger at every turn. But there is a way we can heal—so we can move on and learn to trust ourselves again. And in today's episode, I share 3 mindsets that can help you do just that.---►► Looking for love, clarity, or a fresh perspective? Matthew's weekly newsletter dives into insights that transform not just your relationships, but your entire life. Sign up for free at TheThreeRelationships.com Hosted on Acast.

https://enlighteninglife.com/toxic-family-new-energy-community/ For 15 years I have been talking about how we are creating space for our energetic family and we have been seeing examples of that happening. Whether it has fully happened for you yet, is just a matter of time. Like a slowly approaching tide, the truth that we have been trying our best to avoid is here.For decades and lifetimes we have been working hard to bring our karma group to the light. These are the people you can ‘family' in this lifetime. And for decades and lifetimes they have resisted our efforts, often in devastating ways. But we are at an energetic crossroads and it is time to make a decision that will change our lives from this moment forward.The karma ties that bind us to the people we call our family, the biological ties that we assume to also imply emotional commitment, are unraveling and with it, the dawning realization that we can no longer bring light to people who prefer to be in the dark.The illusion of family that we have held for so long through our sole efforts is crumbling beneath the weight of the darkness we thought we had to endure to fulfill this mission. In its place we will form energetic families, our 5D communities, people who are aligned with us energetically, who truly ‘love, honor, and respect' us. People who can appreciate us and who value who we are, our light, and our efforts.On an emotional level this can be difficult. On an energetic level, though, it is something whose time has come.If you have been frustrated, saddened, and even traumatized by people who do not value you, who dismiss, betray, abandon, and reject you, a change is coming. It means that you will have to abandon some dreams and goals while simultaneously welcoming others. It is not a time to grieve – you have done your best to achieve the impossible. Instead, celebrate your release from the commitments that have bound you to lifetimes of sacrifice while enjoying the change that will come from having relationships that are easy, fun, fulfilling, and joyful.read the rest of the article on the blog at enlighteninglife.com Created, narrated, and produced by Jennifer Hoffman.Artwork by Jennifer Hoffman.Copyright (C) 2004-2025 by Jennifer Hoffman, all US and international rights reserved.Visit enlighteninglife.com for more information.Please note our policies regarding copyright infringement, content misuse, and theft of intellectual property.

This powerful hypnotic meditation guides you to energetically release toxic partners, reclaim your self-worth, and reconnect to your true values.

What if setting boundaries isn't about pushing people away — but about finally choosing yourself? In this powerful and deeply relatable conversation, Harvard-trained clinical psychologist Dr. Sabrina Romanoff joins Surviving Roots host Cari Fund to unpack the hidden patterns that shape our relationships — from friendship breakups and people-pleasing to the repetition of childhood wounds in our adult lives. Together they explore: Why boundaries are acts of preservation, not rejection. How self-abandonment begins in childhood — and how to stop repeating it. The psychology behind friendship breakups and envy. What “getting comfortable in the uncomfortable” really looks like. How to know if someone is a battery or a generator in your life. Why guilt can actually be a sign of healing. Whether you're untangling toxic dynamics or learning to stand in your worth, this episode will help you reconnect with the version of yourself you've been betraying just to keep the peace. ✨ Connect with Dr. Sabrina Romanoff: @drsabrinaromanoff

In this soothing 10-minute guided meditation, Meg Daly gently leads you through a healing visualization to release the energetic cords of a toxic relationship. Settle into stillness as you journey into a sacred space of light and peace, where forgiveness replaces fear and your heart reclaims its freedom. Through imagery, breath, and intention, you'll learn to cut the cords of attachment with love — not resistance — and call your energy back home to your body, your spirit, and your calm. This meditation is perfect for anyone who's ready to let go of an unhealthy connection, release lingering emotional residue, and restore balance to the heart. Let this episode be your sacred pause — a reminder that closure doesn't always come from another person, but from within you.

Sometimes, the hardest truth to face is that the person you love is the one you need to walk away from. Today, Jillian answers three listener letters from people stuck in relationships where love, addiction, betrayal, or avoidance are keeping them trapped. She dives deep into what it means to trust yourself again, why you can't save someone who's drowning, and how self-respect—not attachment—is what sets you free.

Do you constantly overthink, overcommit, or over-care about things that drain your energy?

Marriage and other long term relationships can be wonderful, but they can also be tough. It's natural to expect--and even believe--that romantic partnerships should last forever. Yet, in real life, many love relationships fall apart due to factors such as ongoing differences, a lack of connection, betrayal, health issues, or abuse. And, in some cases, a terrible combination of these issues can cause the relationship to slowly fray or explode. It can be tempting to stay--to weather the storm and hope it gets better--but sometimes the healthiest option is making that tough choice to exit the situation. And while divorce and other relationship endings can come with many heavy costs ranging from financial struggles to deep emotional drain, sometimes the price you pay to stay is far more devastating. Join me and a brilliant self-care advocate, attorney, and former domestic violence judge, Michele Locke, for a deep dive into unhealthy relationships, narcissism, and divorce. Topics discussed include marriage, long-term relationships, narcissism, narcissistic abuse, emotional abuse, physical abuse, spiritual abuse, financial abuse, support groups, self-growth, courage, communication, self-care, self-love, anxiety, fear, physical health, children, parenting, finances, domestic violence, survivors, victims, and boundaries.

On this episode of the Enough is Enough podcast, Dr. David Clarke discusses why you should never go back to a narcissist and how to break free from a toxic relationship for good and not go back.   He's Not Changing Work with me:

In this gripping episode of the Mad Rush Podcast, host Trisha Addicks speaks with Ella and Teri Macduff, the co-founders of 'Chasing Red Flags.' Ella recounts her harrowing experiences, including surviving a toxic relationship, battling an eating disorder, and enduring a drugging incident at a bar. Together with her mother, they discuss the importance of authenticity and how their new guided journal, 'Let's Get Real,' aims to help people connect by being their true selves. The episode emphasizes the importance of overcoming guilt, processing trauma, fostering genuine relationships, and providing listeners with relatable stories, practical tools, and encouragement. About my guests:

Send us a textA poll shock, a policy gamble, a courtroom reckoning, and a boundary that saves a life this episode traces how power, data, culture, and healing collide. We open with a blunt read on fresh numbers putting Nigel Farage within striking distance and ask the tougher question: when the main parties feel unmoored, how do we vote with integrity rather than despair? That thread pulls straight into Keir Starmer's renewed digital ID push. We unpack the Tony Blair Institute's influence, the risks of centralising identity, and why “digital by default” without ironclad security and strict limits is a civil liberties problem, not a modernisation plan.The data story gets painfully real. Cyber attacks have moved from headlines to homes, taking down retailers and even a nursery targeted with stolen images and records. We talk practical defence password managers, multi‑factor authentication, data minimisation and call for sharper laws that fit the crime, especially when perpetrators operate within the UK. Accountability shows up in culture too. Noel Clarke's failed libel suit against The Guardian leaves a £3m cost order and a clearer message: credible reporting and survivor testimony can stand in court, and industry gatekeepers must stop waiting for the courts to do the safeguarding they should have led.Not everything is bleak. The Skims x Nike collaboration is a live case study in strategic branding: knowing your value, choosing partners that amplify it, and letting consistent delivery turn into reputation that travels without you. And then there's the personal work. We share the reality of going no contact with a narcissistic parent after a traumatic birth a choice framed not by bitterness but by the pursuit of peace, therapy, and a safe, joyful home for a child. Boundaries, like encryption, are protective by design.If you're here for smart political analysis, digital privacy insight, culture with a backbone, and honest talk about healing, you're in the right place. Listen, reflect, and tell us where you draw your own lines on data, on votes, on family.

Send us a textEver wondered why that mentor relationship isn't yielding results? The harsh truth is that many mentoring relationships fail to deliver actual career advancement especially for Black women. In this candid episode, we unpack why traditional mentorship often falls short and what true strategic mentoring should look like. It's not about inspirational coffee chats or vague encouragement; it's about someone with genuine influence opening doors that would otherwise remain closed to you. As I share from personal experience, "A mentor without contacts or influence is just a friend with opinions."We also tackle the growing trend of companies mandating three-day office returns and how to negotiate terms that work for your life. Through my own negotiation story, I demonstrate how standing firm on your non-negotiables can actually work in your favour, even in a tough job market. Remember if employers want your talents badly enough, they'll meet your terms.The episode also explores how neurodivergent individuals are protected under the Equality Act as a disability class, offering important legal insights for workplace accommodations. Plus, I share a personal story about setting boundaries with new friendships and the importance of protecting your kindness from those who would take advantage.Between renovation chaos and career revelations, this episode delivers practical wisdom for navigating work politics, boundary-setting, and strategic relationship building. Whether you're seeking advancement or simply trying to maintain your sanity in today's workplace, these insights will help you recognize your worth and advocate for yourself effectively.Sponsorships - Email me: hello@toyatalks.com Cc: toyawashington10@gmail.comTikTok: toya_washington Twitter: @toya_w (#ToyaTalksPodcast) Snapchat: @toyawashington Instagram: @toya_washington & @toya_talks www.toyatalks.comhttps://toyatalks.com/ Music (Intro and Outro) Written and created by Nomadic Star Stationary Company - Sistah Scribble Instagram @sistahscribble Website: www.sistahscribble.com

But you can change the steps you're taking, and that alone can shift the entire dynamic. You're Not Powerless: If everything hinges on him, you're trapped. Shift the focus back to YOU: your choices, your growth, your freedom.Truth Bomb: It's Not Your Fault: You're not responsible for his tantrums, beliefs, or abuse. You are responsible for how you respond and whether you keep playing along.Rebuilding Takes Time: Gaslighting screws with your reality.

When country artist Stephanie Quayle lost her boyfriend in a tragic plane crash, she thought the grief would be the hardest part. But nothing prepared her for the heartbreak of learning at his funeral that she wasn't the only woman in his life. That revelation shattered her world, and forced her to reckon with the truth: the relationship had been toxic from the very beginning. In this powerful episode, Stephanie asks the question, "When I was in these two toxic relationships, how did I feel about myself?" "Why didn't I ever question myself?" "Why did I allow this for myself?" She opens up about her personal story of love, betrayal, and resilience and the importance of who you spend your time with. Drawing from her book: Why Do We Stay?, she shares the emotional and psychological journey of recognizing abuse, escaping manipulation, and reclaiming her freedom. She's joined by psychologist and narcissism expert Dr. W. Keith Campbell, who helps unpack the red flags of toxic relationships, including narcissism and gaslighting. Whether you're questioning your current relationship or healing from the past, this episode will offer insight, hope, and a way forward.
