Paige Robinson is here to help you untangle the web of emotional abuse and harmful behaviour in relationships. In this episode, Paige addresses the insidious ways we often minimise and excuse toxic actions, especially in relationships affected by addiction, trauma, or chaos. She discusses the difference between what's familiar and what's healthy, helping you recognise red flags that might be hiding in plain sight.
Through relatable anecdotes and practical advice, Paige encourages you to trust your gut feelings and understand that it's okay to want basic emotional safety. She breaks down common phrases like 'he's just stressed' or 'he only acts like this when he's drinking' and explains why these excuses can be damaging.

It's a powerful reminder that you deserve better and that emotional abuse is real, even if it doesn't leave visible scars. Tune in for an honest conversation that might just change how you view your relationships.
