The Audaci-Tea

Beware Of The Emotional Vampire!


Listen Later

In this week’s episode of The Audaci-Tea Podcast, hosts Lisa and Sovereign sink their teeth into the world of emotional vampires — the people who drain your peace, your joy, and your energy. They explore how to recognize these emotional leeches, the red flags of covert narcissism and drama addiction, and how to protect your energy with healthy boundaries and self-awareness.

But first, in Tea Time, the hosts discuss the new “full bush” underwear from Skims, Mackenzie Scott’s major donation to Black cultural preservation, the viral $5.5K “alpha male” bootcamp that’s more parody than power, and Mike Vrabel’s viral feminist gesture during NFL press conferences. Later, in the Mailbag, they respond to a listener question about why some men deliberately retraumatize their partners in relationships.

🎧 This episode exposes the traits of emotional vampires and gives you the garlic, mirror, and wooden stake to protect your peace.

🎙️ Topics Discussed:

  • How to recognize emotional vampires in relationships and friendships

  • Narcissists, drama magnets, and energy drainers

  • How emotional exhaustion affects women’s mental health

  • The power of boundaries and emotional detachment

  • Why centering yourself is the ultimate act of self-preservation

  • Signs of covert manipulation and how to protect your energy
