“The mend or move on choice point can happen when a relationship simply grows misaligned, and it can also happen when toxicity is present,” King notes. “Perhaps you have grown to realize that your connection has always had undercurrents of dysfunction and poisonous qualities that you only recently have refused to tolerate. Maybe your relationship has grown toxic over time. Regardless of its path and process, toxic is toxic, and I would never recommend that a person grit their teeth and settle for an unhealthy bond that undermines their autonomy, shunts their strength, or belittles their value—particularly when it shows no hope for improvement.”

Welcome back to the studio.  This is My Day of Play, where you’re taken into the real events and actions of how it happens long before the process of editing or cleaning up.  The original purpose of these episodes was to give my broadcasting students something to edit, to practice with and to call their own.  Then I realized that you are just as important.  Share the reality of how it really went.  We begin things with the angry therapist Jon Kim who returned in January 2025 with a new book Breaking Up On Purpose. Then we’re going to spend some valuable time with debut novelist Janna Brooke Wallack the creator of the story Naked Girl. And we’ll wrap things up with Captains’ Joe Dion and Niko Chaprales from Harpoon Hunters on Discovery. This is My Day of Play.  Completely unedited in the way of meeting the wizard behind the curtain.
