In this episode, I discuss how manipulators tend to play down their actions by focusing on intentions rather than consequences. But here's the TL:DR: impact trumps intent every time. If someone continually hurts you under the guise of 'not meaning it,' it’s essential to question why their hurtful behavior persists despite their professed good intentions.

This is also the last episode under the "Relationship Recovery Podcast." We will go by "You're Not Crazy" this week.
