116. Gasping for Air: Surviving Interpersonal Abuse with Dana Diaz

In this episode, I talk with Dana Diaz about her journey of overcoming a lifetime of abuse. Dana discusses her experiences with physical, emotional, and psychological abuse and trauma, and the intergenerational cycle of abuse that so many people face. Despite the stigma and shame surrounding psychological abuse, Dana has emerged as a voice for those who cannot speak out. We explore the complexities of intimate relationships, the power of trauma bonds, and the insidious nature of narcissistic abuse. Dana's story is one of resilience and hope, offering insights into healing and the importance of setting boundaries. She is the author of the book "Gasping for Air."
