What if the deepest heartbreak isn't losing someone, but realizing they were never who you believed them to be?
In this powerful episode, Najwa shares an excerpt from Chapter 4, How to Fix What They Broke, from her newly released book, The One Who Broke You Can't Heal You. She explores the painful truth behind betrayal, trauma bonds, people-pleasing, and the exhausting cycle of trying to repair damage you never caused.
If you've ever found yourself making excuses for someone's behavior, carrying the weight of a relationship on your shoulders, or believing it was your job to fix what they continuously broke, this conversation is for you. Najwa dives into one of the book's most important lessons: healing begins when you stop trying to repair what someone else chose to destroy.
In this episode, you'll learn:
Why betrayal reveals who someone is, not who you are
How loyalty can become self-abandonment
The connection between trauma bonds and the urge to "fix" people
Why understanding someone's pain does not excuse their behavior
How letting people face the consequences of their choices sets you free
The liberating truth behind the phrase: Stop trying to fix what they broke
This is a heartfelt celebration of The One Who Broke You Can't Heal You and a reminder that your healing does not require the person who hurt you.
