Welcome back, friends!
Last episode, we discussed how to get clarity on your side of the street and identify your relationship wants, needs, and non-negotiables, so you can separate PMDD urges to break up from real, authentic expectations and desires.
This week, we’re headed over to the other side of the street, looking at red flag behaviors from your partner that might indicate they’re actively undermining your emotional wellbeing.
Listen in to this episode if you:
are questioning whether your partner is helping or hurting
feel the urge to break up every month during your luteal phase
consistently feel confused or unsure about your relationship
sense that it’s more than ‘just PMDD’ but don’t know what it is
have a history of staying in unhealthy relationships without realizing it
I cover the top 5 biggest red flags based on my experience, but this article covers 11: emotional manipulation tactics
My hope is you’ll walk away from this episode fully understanding the next step to take in your relationship. Or, if you’re currently single, you’ll have an excellent bullsh*t-detector for the next one.
