Why You Keep Loving the Wrong People

Why do smart, empathic people keep ending up in emotionally painful relationships?
In this first episode of 2026,  I unpack why loving the wrong people isn’t a flaw — it’s conditioning.

(For 1 on 1 online counselling in your own toxic relationship/narcissistic abuse recovery please visit my website at

I speak candidly about narcissistic relationships, emotional control, trauma bonding, and why hope keeps people stuck long after clarity arrives. This episode is for anyone who has loved deeply, doubted themselves, and wondered how they lost their sense of self along the way.
