Emotional Badass

How to Stop Toxic Relationship Patterns in 2026


Listen Later

Why do gut instincts about toxic people get ignored and talked away despite screaming warnings? Highly sensitive people exhaust themselves doing emotional calculus to predict what's happening in everyone else's heads while energy vampires drain them completely. That intelligent narcissist will never get it no matter how many perfect explanations get presented because low empathy means growth and self reflection stay permanently off the table. Playing small and dimming your light becomes automatic after years of learning that accomplishments make others uncomfortable, so managing everyone's feelings turns into a full time job instead of actually living.
