Back by popular demand, I’m joined once again by Rebecca P. Fox, qualified psychotherapist, trauma specialist, and leading expert in emotional intelligence and narcissistic abuse.

You might remember our first conversation, where we scratched the surface of some big topics. This time, we go deeper.

This isn’t about clinical definitions or theory. It’s about what really happens behind the scenes. The quiet manipulation that chips away at your sense of self. The patterns we excuse. The red flags we rationalise. And the fog that forms when you start questioning what’s real.

We talk about toxic relationships, trust, boundaries and how hard it can be to walk away even when you know you should. We also get into dating in 2025, how social media has distorted connection and what it takes to actually build something real in a culture that moves fast and forgets faster.

Rebecca brings clarity and calm to conversations many people shy away from. This episode is for anyone navigating change, rebuilding confidence or learning to trust their gut again.
