Episode 10 (Season 3): Trauma Bonding — Why Leaving Is Harder Than It Looks
“Why don’t you just leave?” It’s a question survivors of abuse hear too often — but leaving is not that simple. Trauma bonding creates an unhealthy attachment that feels impossible to break.
In this episode, best-selling author and coach Gigi explains what trauma bonding is, why it feels so powerful, and how survivors can begin breaking free. With Scripture, psychology, and personal reflection, she offers clarity, compassion, and hope.
