In this week's episode of Unlicensed, Jill is joined by Life and Relationship Coach and expert on Narcissism and Trauma Bonds, Lisa Sonni, to offer some advice on how to break free from trauma bonds within abusive relationships and how to identify toxic red flags early on in dating. Today, Lisa describes the typical behaviors of a narcissist and how their victim's upbringings play a role in them being drawn towards them, defines what a trauma bond is and why it's so difficult for individuals to break free from these attachments, and discusses the differences between toxicity vs. abuse and why our society as a whole needs to begin having these conversations around these types of relationships. Consider this your soft launch into therapy!
