065. How "Setting Boundaries" Led To Him Leaving (Kylie Borg Interview)
Kylie Borg was in a toxic relationship and, as often is the case, she did not realise it. Little by little, things got worse, until one day she set her boundaries - and stood by them. So what did her ex do?
When confronted with boundaries, toxic people usually insist, but when they can't break them down, they often end up leaving.
Kylie shares her story, how she realised something was amiss, how she coped, and how setting boundaries without realising that her partner was toxic led to him deciding to leave the relationship.
Join us for a fascinating conversation about blindspots and how "wanting to help someone" makes us vulnerable to narcissists and toxic people.
