I’m so excited to have my girl, Najwa Zebian, back for another incredibly powerful conversation. Ladies! This episode is an urgent reminder to put yourself first, get control of your life and stop selling yourself short.
This time Najwa is exposing the tricky and manipulative nature of toxic unhealthy relationships many of us unfortunately find ourselves in. Najwa is a bestselling author, activist, and an absolute wordsmith when it comes to putting words to the pain and experiences we share in being women.
As usual, she’s dropping gems and insights about manipulative tactics that trap us in unhealthy relationships and the upbringing that sets the stage for all the B.S. we spend years trying to escape.
This conversation gets juicy right from the start as we expose signs that you’re in a toxic relationship. What you sometimes believe to be normal, is actually a trap!
‘Good girl’ conditioning has betrayed you, it’s time to turn up the volume on your intuition and stop prioritizing everyone else over what’s best for you.
Pay attention to these signals to avoid manipulation that turns into a nightmare relationship.
This habit makes it easy for us to accept and excuse other people’s bad behavior, Najwa exposes that for you too so you can stop it immediately.
Najwa shares steps you can start taking TODAY to get out of and heal from the toxic relationships holding you back
Take this walk with us as we explore the tough journey away from the intoxicating highs of destructive relationships and get back to your most authentic self. We have a WARNING for you ladies: toxic people put up with your red flags, healthy people do not! (know your red flags ladies!)
****Empowering Bonus Extra for Women Tired of the Manipulation****
If you’re absolutely done with being manipulated and gaslit, I’ve got the perfect bonus for you wit the Boundary Boss, Terri Cole. Her mission is to help women break the cycle of over-functioning with boundaries that empower and in this episode she’s identifying 3 manipulation tactics being used against you and giving you the exact steps to put an end to it.
“If something is good, it’ll be good six weeks from now. If there’s an urgency, that you’re feeling pressured, that is a red flag to step back, tap the brakes, and give yourself space.” -Terri Cole
NAJWA’S HEARTFELT WISDOM:
“People who care about you and love you genuinely want what’s in your best interest.”
“Who they are with you in private is a completely different person from who they are around other people.”
“The difference between someone who is toxic and someone who is healthy is their willingness to talk to you about it.”
“You could have a great career, you could be making good money, you could have great friendships, you could have a great family relationship, you could have a great community around you. If your intimate relationship is not good, if it’s toxic, if it’s manipulative, it could bring all of that down.”
“Relationships with partners are the foundation for how we feel about ourselves.”
“What is fueled by shame has to be sustained by shame, and what’s fueled by compassion has to be sustained by compassion.”
“What’s really hard is to have someone add to your life, to have someone sit with you in your darkest moments.”
“To know your worth is very different from living through your worth.”
“People make mistakes in relationships. There are repairs that could happen, but the repair should never be one that is only led by the person who’s hurt.”
“I want to be the strong confident me that I know, but if I remove the part of me that’s vulnerable, that’s not part of the strong confident me, it’s just not me.”

@@josieparsons3355 Just my opinion: Work on you being the "right person" for yourself. When you work towards being your own "right person" you develop the confidence in yourself and that you can trust you and you trust that you can handle when someone treats you as less than the "right person". My ex-husband did horrible things to me and our son. I am now almost 60 yoa and I have ever so slowly become more empathetic, more athletic, and more confident. It was not an overnight journey and I am learning to be my own "right person" still.... "learning-to-be-still"

I believe this is true and yes you're absolutely right in that respect and trust are two totally different things and I give respect, but after my husband passed I dated a guy who manipulated me into a relationship and he hurt me bad and had been fb messaging other women from the beginning and really he did his last and only girlfriend the same way and had an affair and she never knew before she passed away five days after my husband did in 2018 and he was talking bad and I mean really bad about me to his female friends and even joined a dating site. I found the strength to break up with him and then he wanted us to br friends and stupid me agreed and he had made a good friend I think but he still has rages for no reason and I tense up around him and become stressed out and feeling anxious and I know he's still so sneaky where I'm so transparent so I'm trying to be alone but it's hard since my youngest son moved in with his brother and I know they have to have their own lives but it's so lonely without him here and I feel I'll never meet anyone because I don't go places to meet people but I do know you're so right that we're never alone because Jesus is always with us. It's jsut hard to learn how to be totally alone even though I know God is with me.

Towards the end with the discard l, I stayed no contact and they showed their true colours! I am grateful for the lesson and my spiritual awakening! Amen 🙏

Looking for happiness we'll never find it. Giving of ourselves for something greater than ourselves gives us the real joy of purpose. What's important for us, we who have been exploited and damaged by narcissistic abuse, is to heal. For a time we have to draw back, into ourselves, introspect, see our vulnerabilities, gain wisdom and strength and SET BOUNDARIES! Once we have that done we then have a "new self", a wiser, stronger self, to present to the world and make it a better place. Yes, I'm still healing. I'm getting there baby step by baby step, one moment at a time because minutes are too long! But at 73, I'm NOT DEAD YET. Isn't it wonderful we have it in us? Blessings.

She told me that he needs me because he always wanted me to be with him. I was told it was better to be needed. After 3 children, he left me for another woman and he gave up drinking for her and she eventually left him because he was too needy.

LISTEN TO YOUR BODY!!! This is one of the best videos I've found on narcissistic abuse. At 50 years old, feeling suicidal, I finally went no-contact with my NPD/OCPD violent sadistic and racist gaslighting mother not because I wanted to; I was going to continue a limited relationship after I moved out of her place where I was working from home at my own business the last 5 years (never got a single "I'm proud of you") but then she crossed some major boundaries I'd tried to set, and I literally felt like vomiting every time I tried to pick up the phone or answer her emails. My entire being screamed, "NO! DON'T DO IT!!" and that was 9 months ago. I feel heartbroken and destroyed and am experiencing a lot of intrusive thoughts about abuse as a child from both parents that was normalized. And all the way into adulthood I've been assaulted and bullied and terrorized. Can't take a minute more.

I got out of a toxic relationship. You don’t have to believe you can do it, you just have to understand why it’s necessary and do it anyway. Dont leave anything down to chance, don’t hope it will be ok, do what you need to do to guarantee your safely if it’s threatened. Nothing matters more than your life. If they’ve EVER threatened you even if they’ve never laid a hand on you, take it seriously. You never know what they’re capable of doing but if they’re capable of thinking it and saying it would you really bet your life they wouldn’t do it? It reaches a tipping point where the pain and risk of staying is greater than the pain and fear of leaving. understanding the cycle of abuse and robotic pattern of abusers there’s no way around reality, it becomes life or death. Leaving is dangerous and staying is dangerous. Believe the process of leaving will turn you into the unfathomably strong person you need to be and do it anyway. It’s not about not being afraid, it’s about doing it anyway. You don’t have to believe you’re strong to be strong. You find secret strength reserves along the way

It’s not always bad, sometimes your partner gives you breadcrumbs and you live for those moments. Especially for someone who has been alone for a long time. You justify it to yourself, sometimes he’s really nice, so it must have been something I said or did. I love how she said “some one who has been trained”. When we have been trained our whole lives to tolerate bad behaviour, it’s very difficult to believe that you deserve better. I told my mother how disappointed I was in my relationship, she told me that that was something I was going to have to work out how to live with. Her solution, go to church, god will fill that void that your partner can’t.

I decided around a decade ago that "my life is about me". I've been called selfish and such things for saying that but it was the start of MY healing process. Still it has taken me more than a decade after that realization to finally come to understand that I had so many narcissist's in my life. All I knew before is that about once a decade I found myself suddenly cutting toxic people out of my life and I would experience such relief. I just didn't have it so well defined as now. I am finally learning how to deflect the toxic people so I have time and energy for truly good, nurturing people and for me to be involved in my own life and therefore not be so needy that I turn people off because of MY neediness.

@@rubyred3860 @rubyred3860 I don't agree that all parents are weak. Both my brother and sister in law are great at disciplining and teaching them about life. My nephew and niece are amazing kids. My niece is a terror, sometimes but she takes after me! Beautifully behaved when out, both of them. They have strong parents and other family members that WILL discipline them when required. I believe other parents are the same or similar. A lot of parents are uneducated about toxic relationships. Just like this speaker is! You can't just runaway from a toxic relationship. It is a mammoth task to escape. I'm a victim who got out. But it's not a simple thing to just tell people like she did. It's far more complex. @LisaBilyeu it's victims that know the truth, what could happen, etc. You should have got a victim on your show.

Everything she is saying is correct. I am also in a toxic relationship with a man who belittles me, blames me for his entire life's misery. I use to beg for the bare minimum of his attention and love. He would go behind my back and I would still accept him back bc I was so used to his presence. I am in the process of detaching, it's been more peaceful and safe... I cannot wait to be happy again.

Narcissists do the opposite of what is right. That’s what makes them so cruel. If they’re capable of crazy-making and gaslighting you to get their way, if they’re capable of giving you the silent treatment knowing you’re in pain and looking for answers, if they’re capable of destroying your reputation by starting a smear campaign and if they’re capable of triangulating you with their flying monkeys so they can humiliate you…then why in the world wouldn’t they be capable of something like cheating? Narcissists are entitled. Narcissists lack empathy. Narcissists are delusional enough to justify their actions. They have all of the ingredients for being a cheater. They’re known for cruel and devastating discards, but somehow they would stop at cheating on you because they have morals and just couldn’t go through with it? No one can truly believe that. The narcissist believes he’s so slick that the other person’s name will actually come up in conversations, if you’re paying attention. But the narcissist will mention them with disgust, as if he wants nothing to do with them. “I can’t stand working with Karen. She annoys me everyday and I can’t believe the things she wears sometimes.” It’s a test to see how you respond to this name coming up periodically. It’s also a way for the narcissist to gain some sadistic glee because they can talk about the other person with you while you’re not yet aware of this person’s role in their life. When they drop the bomb on your head and the realization hits that they’re leaving you for “that Karen” they’ll be overjoyed. If you’re with a narcissist you should be prepared for the push and pull, the other women or men popping up or even outside children. They can’t even be trusted to show up to an event on time. They certainly can’t be trusted with your heart. Additionally, There are many ways to f!nd out what someone is hiding from you in their phones. These several ways only need the ass!stance of someone who has the knowledge $py!ng and can hàck into phónes and social media. For hélp, contact Metaspyhub@gmail. com for ass!stance.

But the amount of times you forgive them and still try to be better and actually ACT better DESERVES to be MIRRORED. And your body knows.

After a while, it gets tiring & slowly eats at your self-esteem. It can turn you into a completely different person (which brings the worse out of you). At this point, you need to step back & ask yourself, is this healthy & I'm happy? People are generally who they are. Trying to make excuses or think someone will change is only going to set yourself up to be disappointed & have regrets. Being too nice & too kind lets narcissistic individuals take advantage of your kindness without recourse if they do treat you badly. Learn to put yourself & happiness first. Set your own boundaries from the beginning ✨️

Easier said than done when you are in a narcissistic abusive relationship. Feelings of yourself faze out and go 100% into them. You adore them, or at least, you THINK you do. When someone lovebombs you to trap you, and then u turns YOUR personality... Then come back to me after years of abuse, and try to repeat your statement with conviction. I'm a survivor, but I have many scars, I have PTSD, and I know the real truth. It's not about trusting yourself.

Same here, good to know that others feel the same way. My mother doesn't have my back, at one point even told me I could go back to my violent ex and that she could have handled them! Can't believe I thought she was a caring person. It's all for her own image

This is so good. Thank you! I got into the rabbit hole which says that “if I’m good to them they will be good back to me”

I want to thank you so much for saying that “the moment you recognize that you are in the wrong relationship usually isn’t the moment that you walk away,“ because you removed any and all feelings of shame and stupidity with that!! We ask ourselves, ‘What’s wrong with me, why am I still here!??’ and so your comment was so very helpful. Thank you ❤

EVERYTHING IS SO TRUE ; LISTENING THIS SECOND TIME AND IS EXACTLY MY 14 YEARS I HAD LEFT 6 MONTS AGO ! STILL HEALING AND PUTTING THE PIECES TOGETHER. DO NOT STAY IN TOXICITY OF SOMEONE, LEAVE STRAIGHT AWAY AS THAT WILL EAT, DESTROY AND DAMAGE YOU SLOWLY.

That is so true! That your partner should be the same person everywere. Thats what I loved about my husband in the begining of our relationship. He was always himself even when he met my mother, family, or his friends and siblings. But my ex was always extra nice when other people was around. And very abusive when we were alone.

This just happened to me: I always sense something was off my body would get tense and feel weird off , my physic would tell me. I turned it off because I thought I was overthinking as what he tells me. However over the weekend I found him cheating at work. Then I remembered that my body was trying to tell me for the past few weeks. I just felt something was off I didn’t listen to my intuition. Now I’m going through some weird hateful thoughts to myself because he said it was my fault. I denied my feelings because something was happening. Now I’m stuck

@@odiliagaspar4339 I am very sorry for what happened to you. His actions are not your fault. And please don't hate yourself for not listening to your intuition. You were probably gaslit to a point where you feel lost. It's in your hands to decide if you want to continue this toxic 'relationship' where everything is about him or decide that you deserve better even if it means living alone and getting to know yourself better. He will never take responsibility for his actions. You deserve so much better. I wish you all the best.

I was there for 22 years. I took my time (years) to grow the strength I needed to leave . It was the hardest, best thing I did. The analogy of the butterfly struggle says it well. Najwa is exact on - she’s telling my story . I promise there is hope- I’m living proof . Thank you both
