In this episode of Narcissists, Gaslighters and Cheaters, Oh My!, hosts Behk and LAH sit down with Elisea, aka ‘Leecy,’ who bravely opens up about her painful journey through a toxic relationship that consumed much of her 20s. Leecy shares her experience with constant gaslighting, emotional manipulation, and physical assault by a friend of her ex. Her partner, who presented himself as a "good Christian guy," demanded she take on all the responsibilities of the home—despite her working full-time and being independent.

Leecy dives deep into the cycle of abuse, discussing the psychological toll it took on her and how she was made to believe everything was her fault. She reflects on how the constant fighting, drinking, and twisted behavior of her ex shattered her self-esteem. But through it all, Leecy found the strength to heal.

Now, as a survivor, she offers powerful advice to young women currently stuck in toxic relationships. Leecy’s message is one of hope, empowerment, and resilience, as she encourages listeners to reclaim their lives and break free from harmful dynamics.

This episode is a raw and real conversation about the complexities of abusive relationships and the journey toward healing. If you or someone you know is struggling, this episode is a must-listen.
