In this episode, we explore toxic relationships through the lens of awareness. Jeni breaks down the subtle behaviors that create toxic dynamics — from boundary violations and emotional inconsistency to manipulation. Through personal experience, I'll share what I’ve learned about accountability and the red flags we often excuse. The conversation expands beyond romantic relationships to highlight how these same patterns can show up in other relationships and why recognizing them is essential to protecting your peace.
