Today, I’m diving into a really important topic - how to recognize toxic relationships. These relationships can sneak into our lives and slowly chip away at our self-worth if we don’t know what to look for.  I’m sharing why we sometimes attract these patterns, often because of unresolved childhood wounds, and I’ll walk you through six key signs that can help you spot toxicity early on. We’ll talk about feelings of dread, gaslighting, blame, and other subtle behaviors that can leave us feeling confused and small. I’m also sharing some personal stories and real-life examples to help bring this to life.  In this episode, you’ll hear: How to recognize toxic relationships and their warning signs Why I believe unresolved childhood wounds draw us into these patterns The six key signs of toxicity, including gaslighting and blame Personal stories and real-life examples from my own journey How to start rebuilding self-esteem and setting healthy boundaries Resources from this Episode: The Adult Chair book is NOW AVAILABLE!   MORE MICHELLE CHALFANT Website: https://www.michellechalfant.com Membership: The Academy of Awakening https://www.theacademyofawakening.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/themichellechalfant Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheMichelleChalfant The Adult Chair® Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/theadultchair YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/Michellechalfant
