In this episode, Lindsey names “relational endurance” — and why so many people feel “stuck” in the stay-or-leave question when the real issue is the pattern running the relationship. She breaks down two dominant flavors of online relationship advice — “just leave culture” and new-relationship-energy certainty — and explains how both can soothe your nervous system while flattening the nuance required for real discernment.

Lindsey also unpacks the “glow up after leaving” phenomenon and why relief after a breakup can get misread as proof that the relationship was abusive, even when the dynamic was “normal-but-hard” (especially over-functioning / under-functioning). She challenges the way words like “toxic” and “gaslighting” get used as junk-drawer labels for everything from discomfort to actual abuse — which ultimately makes it harder to discern what abuse really is and easier to avoid accountability and skill-building.
