Meet your new bestie in healing — Dr. Nadine Macaluso (aka Dr. Nae)! In Episode 5 of Bitch Is a Bad Word, we sit down with licensed psychotherapist, trauma bond expert, and author of Run Like Hell, Dr. Nae, to talk all things narcissistic abuse, toxic relationships, and breaking free from the patterns that keep us stuck.


Once married to the infamous “Wolf of Wall Street,” Dr. Nae turned her own survival story into a powerful mission: to help others recognize and escape trauma bonds. Her insight as both a clinician and survivor makes this a raw, real, and deeply empowering conversation.


🎙️ In this episode:

  • What trauma bonding really is—and why it’s so hard to break
  • How to identify narcissistic abuse and coercive control
  • Dr. Nae’s personal journey from survival to empowerment
  • Tools to help you escape toxic relationships and start healing
  • Highlights from her new book Run Like Hell

If you're ready to stop second-guessing yourself and start reclaiming your power, this episode is for you.
