Domestic Abuse: Recognizing the Subtle Signs

In this episode I share my deeply personal experiences of domestic abuse, aiming to shed light on the complexities and red flags of such relationships. Drawing from both my own journey and the collective experiences of my clients, I highlight the nuanced indicators of abuse, ranging from intense early relationship progression to controlling behaviors and isolation tactics. Throughout the narrative, I emphasize the inherent dangers of manipulation and the importance of recognizing harmful dynamics for what they are. Amidst the pain and trauma, my experiences with resilient figures like Ann, who stood up to my abuser, serve as a beacon of hope, demonstrating that it is possible to escape the cycle of violence, reclaim self-love and respect, and foster healthier relationships.

Hosted by psychotherapist Nikki Eisenhauer, M.Ed. LPC, LCDC, International Life Coach, Licensed Professional Counselor, Yoga and Meditation Teacher. Emotional Badasses are survivors, thrivers, seekers, and healers! This show provides essential emotional education on topics such as Mental Health, HSPs (Highly Sensitive People), narcissists & manipulative personalities, healing from trauma and PTSD, calming your nervous system, inner child work, and setting healthy boundaries. Expand and awaken to your higher purpose, be more present and authentic, find strength in spirituality, quiet the monkey mind of modern society with meditation, and connect deeply with yourself and safe others. We let go of what doesn't serve us to heal old wounds, find our voice guilt-free, and learn to be the hero in our own story, embrace guerrilla self care, and laugh with lightness on the self development path. This show is designed to mindfully be the emotional education so many of us crave; emotional badass is where we learn to love ourselves without apology. Emotional Badass is where Moxie Meets Mindful.
