This week on Trauma Candy Salad, Sammi, Ashley, and Kyle serve up a full three-course meal of chaos — featuring gaslighting boyfriends, fake best friends, and workplace Chads who just won’t quit.
🍬 On the menu:
• A “good guy” boyfriend caught on Grindr (and a group chat cleanup that deserves an award)
• A best friend who turned out to be a full-blown frenemy
• And one woman’s “Roman Empire” — watching three mediocre men get promoted over her
If you’ve ever been gaslit, backstabbed, or told to “be happy for the team,” this one’s for you.
✨ Listen, laugh, and heal — one story at a time.
