    Episode 82: 🪞Am I the Toxic One? The Relationship Patterns We Refuse to See

    What if the toxic behavior affecting your relationships isn’t only coming from other people? In this episode, I’m turning the mirror inward and asking a question that can be uncomfortable to face: Am I the toxic one? I explore the relationship patterns we don’t always recognize in ourselves, from defensiveness and emotional triggers to unhealthy communication, unresolved pain, and the difficulty of taking accountability. Sometimes the behaviors we criticize in others are the very ones we need to examine in ourselves. This isn’t about labeling yourself a toxic person or blaming yourself for everything that goes wrong. It’s about recognizing the difference between making a mistake and repeatedly allowing unhealthy patterns to shape your relationships. If you’ve ever wondered, “Why do I keep reacting this way?” “Am I contributing to the conflict?” or “How can I become more emotionally mature?” this conversation is an invitation to look inward with honesty and compassion. Self-awareness is where healthier relationships begin. And sometimes, the hardest red flags to recognize are our own. 📲 Follow R&R: Resilience & Rebirth for raw conversations, lived experiences, and stories of resilience, healing, and rebirth. 🎧 Tune in now and let this episode spark insight and reflection. 💬 What resonated with you?

    Episode 81: 🚩Dr. Lisa The Red Flags of Narcissistic Abuse Everyone Misses

    What if the biggest warning signs in a relationship don't look like red flags at all? What if emotional manipulation begins with overwhelming kindness, constant attention, and making you feel like you've finally found the person you've been waiting for? In this powerful conversation, I sit down with relationship recovery expert Dr. Lisa F. to uncover the hidden patterns behind narcissistic abuse, gaslighting, coercive control, love bombing, trauma bonding, and the subtle behaviors that often go unnoticed until someone begins questioning their own reality. One of the most surprising truths is that emotional abuse rarely starts with cruelty. It often begins with feeling deeply seen, valued, and understood, making it incredibly difficult to recognize when manipulation quietly takes its place. Throughout our conversation, Dr. Lisa shares why so many intelligent, compassionate, and successful people become trapped in unhealthy relationship dynamics, how gaslighting slowly erodes self-trust, and why leaving isn't nearly as simple as most people think. If you've ever questioned your instincts, felt responsible for someone else's behavior, or wondered whether you're experiencing emotional manipulation, this episode offers practical insight, validation, and a deeper understanding of the patterns that keep so many people stuck. Healthy relationships are built on trust, respect, emotional safety, and mutual effort, not fear, control, guilt, or confusion. Learning to recognize the difference can change every relationship you have moving forward. Whether you're healing after narcissistic abuse, navigating a difficult relationship, supporting someone you love, or simply wanting to better understand emotional manipulation, this conversation may completely change the way you see relationships. Sometimes the deepest wounds are the ones no one else can see. 📲 Follow R&R: Resilience & Rebirth for raw conversations, lived experiences, and stories of resilience, healing, and rebirth. 🎧 Tune in now and let this episode spark insight and reflection. 📚 About Today’s Guest: If you’d like to connect with Dr. Lisa F. or explore their work, you can find them here: Website:⁠⁠ ⁠⁠shadowandsoul.com drlisadawnfox@shadowandsoul.comIf you do reach out, feel free to mention you discovered them through R&R: Resilience & Rebirth.

    Episode 80: 🍂When God Creates Distance: The Painful Truth About Outgrowing Friendship

    Have you ever looked at someone you've loved for years and quietly wondered, "Why doesn't this friendship feel the same anymore?" This is one of the most personal conversations I've ever shared. For a long time, I questioned myself. Was I expecting too much? Was I changing? Or was I finally seeing patterns I had ignored for years? In this episode, I open up about what it was like to walk away from friendships that had been part of my life for decades. The memories were real. The love was real. But so was the growing disconnect. As I grew spiritually and became more aligned with the life I wanted to live, I realized not everyone was meant to walk into my next season with me. Our conversations changed, our priorities changed, and the things that once connected us no longer felt the same. One of the hardest lessons I've learned is that history doesn't always mean alignment. Sometimes we're the ones who keep showing up, giving our time, our energy, and our hearts, only to realize that when we need support, the effort isn't returned. Recognizing those patterns isn't bitterness, it's wisdom. I've also learned that letting go isn't always about losing someone. Sometimes it's about creating the space your life has been asking for all along. Just like a full parking lot can't welcome another car, our lives can't always receive what's meant for us when we're holding on to what we've already outgrown. If you've been struggling with one-sided friendships, feeling guilty for growing apart, or sensing that life is calling you into a new season, I hope this episode reminds you that not every ending is a loss. Some endings are the beginning of becoming who you were always meant to be. 📲 Follow R&R: Resilience & Rebirth for raw conversations, lived experiences, and stories of resilience, healing, and rebirth. 🎧 Tune in now and let this episode spark insight and reflection. 💬 What resonated with you?

    Episode 79:🚨 Justin: I Lost Everything. Then I Started Over From My Mom's Floor

    What happens when addiction, financial collapse, and years of living someone else's version of success finally catch up with you? In this episode of Resilience & Rebirth, entrepreneur Justin shares the extraordinary story of how a successful sales career, mounting pressure to fit a traditional definition of stability, and an addiction to painkillers nearly cost him everything. After losing his home, his finances, and nearly his family, Justin entered rehab and began rebuilding his life from scratch, sleeping on his mother's floor with a wife, young children, and no clear certainty about what would come next. What followed was a journey of recovery, self-discovery, entrepreneurship, and learning how to stop living according to other people's expectations. Justin opens up about addiction recovery, rebuilding trust, creating a clear vision for the future, overcoming limiting beliefs, navigating business partnerships, and the mindset shifts that helped him transform rock bottom into an entirely new life. This conversation explores resilience, personal growth, recovery, entrepreneurship, identity, purpose, accountability, and what it truly means to start over when everything falls apart. If you've ever felt trapped by expectations, struggled with addiction, faced a major setback, or wondered whether it's too late to rebuild your life, this episode is a powerful reminder that your next chapter can begin at any moment. 📲 Follow R&R: Resilience & Rebirth for raw conversations, lived experiences, and stories of resilience, healing, and rebirth. 🎧 Tune in now and let this episode spark insight and reflection. 📚 About Today’s Guest: If you’d like to connect with Justin or explore their work, you can find them here: Website:⁠ https://propelyour.com ⁠ If you do reach out, feel free to mention you discovered them through R&R: Resilience & Rebirth.

    Episode 78: 🪞 Emotional Intelligence: What If We Treated Others the Way We Wanted to Be Treated?

    In this solo episode, I share my personal perspective on emotional intelligence and why I believe it is one of the most important qualities we can develop throughout our lives. For me, emotional intelligence begins with a simple question: If I didn't like how something made me feel, why would I choose to make someone else feel the same way? We often talk about emotional intelligence as a skill, but I believe it is much deeper than that. It grows as we grow mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. It develops through self-awareness, reflection, empathy, and our willingness to understand the impact our words, actions, and energy have on others. In this episode, I share my honest thoughts on: • What emotional intelligence truly means to me • Why empathy is more powerful than many people realize • The impact of our words and actions • How self-awareness changes the way we treat othersWhy healing ourselves often changes our relationships • The connection between emotional, mental, and spiritual growth This is not a clinical or academic conversation. It is a heartfelt reflection on what it means to move through life with greater awareness, compassion, and responsibility. I hope this episode inspires you to reflect on your own experiences and consider how emotional intelligence shows up in your daily life. 📲 Follow R&R: Resilience & Rebirth for raw conversations, lived experiences, and stories of resilience, healing, and rebirth. 🎧 Tune in now and let this episode spark insight and reflection. 💬 What resonated with you?

    Episode 76:🔑 Networking Changed My Life , But Not for the Reason You Think

    In this episode, I’m sharing my personal perspective on networking and why I believe it’s about so much more than business, followers, money, or opportunities. To me, networking isn’t transactional. It’s about connection, energy, timing, and planting seeds in people’s lives that they may have desperately needed to hear. Sometimes the most powerful conversations come from complete strangers. One sentence, one introduction, one moment can genuinely shift someone’s mindset, confidence, career, or entire direction in life. I talk about how I personally approach networking, the mindset that has helped me build meaningful relationships, and why you should never underestimate the power of simply connecting with people authentically. Because the truth is: you never know who you’re going to meet… or how one conversation can change everything. This episode is for anyone wanting to build deeper connections, create real impact, and see networking in a completely different way. 📲 Follow R&R: Resilience & Rebirth for raw conversations, lived experiences, and stories of resilience, healing, and rebirth. 🎧 Tune in now and let this episode spark insight and reflection. 💬 What resonated with you?
