We talk about:

• Maggie's marriage to an addict & alcoholic...
• ...and why it took her so long to end it.
• Understanding and recognizing gaslighting and how dangerous it can be.
• Standing up for herself and ending a marriage has not been celebrated in her family due to culture and religion.
• Generational trauma - how women have accepted all types of abuse & how she broke the cycle.
• The importance of asking for what we want; we cannot assume people are mind-readers.
• How creating boundaries is essential to expressing your needs confidently (so that you no longer repress feelings.)
• “It’s never about doing the dishes… Having a daily check-in is going to save a lot of heartache.”
• Why mindset and self-care are non-negotiable for showing up in the best way possible in your life.
