Descripción

Welcome or welcome back to the Happily Ever Healthy Podcast everyone. It’s been a minute. But I’m back. Emotional abuse is often invisible, but the body keeps the score. Join me as I discuss the reality of narcissistic abuse, gaslighting, and the physical impact of chronic stress on the central nervous system. In this episode, we cover: DARVO & Blame-Shifting: Why it’s impossible to have a fair argument with an abuser. The Trauma Bond: The biological reason you feel "addicted" to the cycle. Affective Deprivation: Dealing with a partner who withholds empathy. Intimidation Tactics: Recognizing the "flashlight" moments and physical coercion. The Path to Healing: How to stop "JADE-ing" and start reclaiming your light. Trigger Warning: Emotional & Physical Abuse. This episode dives deep into the realities of coercive control, intimidation tactics, and the trauma bond. My goal is to educate and encourage, but the content is heavy. Please listen with care for yourself.

Stop Trying to Handle Life on your Own

Welcome or welcome back to the Happily Ever Healthy Podcast everyone! I know, it’s been a minute. But, I’m back! This is the first episode of season 3 and I hope you find it encouraging. We will be diving into a super important topic today that I believe everyone will be able to relate to on some level. As humans we sometimes try to muscle through our struggles in life on our own and put our relationship with God on the back burner — then wonder why we feel depressed, anxious, and overwhelmed. We NEED Jesus and we cannot do this life without Him. If you enjoy today’s episode, please share it with a friend so they can hear this message of hope! Stay happy and stay healthy friends. PS: I apologize for some noise in the background. My dryer was going and I didn’t realize until after I recorded and listened back. I hope it doesn’t bother you guys too much!!
