Hey, besties! Are you trapped in a toxic relationship and wondering if it’s really domestic violence? In this episode of Bitch is a Bad Word, we sit down with Dr.Amber Wardell, PhD, author of Beyond Self-Care: Potato Chips, to unpack the truth about emotional abuse, gaslighting, and narcissistic abuse. They dive into the red flags of abusive relationships, the grip of trauma bonding, and the manipulative control tactics that keep victims feeling stuck. Whether you’re looking for DV support, trying to understand relationship red flags, or searching for a way to start healing from abuse, this conversation will help you break free and reclaim your power. Amber’s book offers a fresh perspective on prioritizing yourself beyond the clichés—because real healing takes more than bubble baths and face masks.
