🎙️ STUCK WITH A TOXIC PERSON (AND CAN’T LEAVE YET)?

What do you do when you're living with someone toxic—family, partner, roommate—and you can't leave right now?

In this episode, I break down how to stay grounded, build strength, and take back control even when your environment isn’t safe or supportive yet.

🧠 CORE IDEAYou may not be able to leave yet—but you can still get stronger, plan ahead, and protect your peace.

💡 5 THINGS TO FOCUS ON:

* PLAN YOUR EXIT → Set a deadline. Make a plan. Your brain needs to know this isn’t forever.

* BUILD STRENGTH → Workout. Eat. Sleep. Move. Strong body, stronger boundaries.

* PROTECT YOUR MIND → Journal. Meditate. Stick to your hobbies. Keep your life intact.

* GET PERSPECTIVE → Talk to someone objective. Therapist, counselor, coach, spiritual care.

* DON’T ENGAGE → Think of tangled headphones—pulling hard only makes the knot worse.

📓 REFLECT ON THIS:• What’s my actual exit plan?• Where can I get stronger this month—physically, emotionally, spiritually?• What routines help me stay balanced right now?• Who (or what) could give me a new perspective?
