Are you wondering how someone like you (confident at work) still can't walk away from someone who's hurting you?
You already know this relationship is toxic. You've known for a while. But the gap between what you know and what you do has become its own source of shame. This episode is about why that's happening, and why it's not a willpower problem.
In this episode you'll discover:
- Why leaving isn't a logic or willpower problem — and what's actually keeping you stuck on a level that has nothing to do with how smart or strong you are
- The very specific thing that is blocking the only kind of healing that actually works (and what to do instead)
- The one shift that can stop the cycle of returning, ruminating, and white-knuckling your way through days you're not really living
