There's nothing like growing up in a relationship that you've outgrown. Getting in a committed relationship at an early age gave my guest Natasha a dose of what it's like to be married. But was it real love? Spending years in a relationship where she felt trapped and plagued by the pressures of not being able to leave she dealt with narcissistic behaviors, suicidal ideations and recognizing that she has more to offer. It's a very honest conversation and I learned a lot and appreciate everything Natasha had to share. Tune in and listen! XO
