This one comes with a trigger warning - Narcissistic Abuse

In this rather brutal episode, we unpack a story about a narcissist, a dog, and the subtle ways manipulation can infiltrate everyday life. Using humor, honesty, and insight, we explore how to spot controlling behavior, protect your boundaries, and reclaim your sense of agency — all while keeping your sanity intact. If you’ve ever questioned someone’s motives or felt drained by a relationship, this episode is your guide to understanding the red flags and trusting your instincts again.

Then it’s on to questions of the week. 

• I can't stop thinking about them with someone else - what can I do to stop?
• How do you Survive Valentine's Day after 15 years together?

As we always say, if you’re having relationship problems, going through a relationship breakup or experiencing heartbreak, then know this: we are with you. Because you can and will survive, heal and thrive.

Everyone who appears on our podcast can take positive steps forward, and so can you.
