Life Happens with Barb & Michelle21 Juli

Why is It So Easy to Be Taken Advantage Of?

We’ve all felt that awful pang in our stomach. Our face might turn hot and red, we might get overwhelmingly anxious. Our body is giving us signals so we can see what is so often hard for us to accept - we’ve been taken advantage of.

In this week’s episode of Life Happens with Barb & Michelle, mother daughter duo explore what Barb calls “one of the hardest conversations” the two have ever explored on the show - what happens when you’ve been manipulated and taken advantage of. From the small signs that we all ignore to the unforgivable disrespect we’ve all encountered, Barb and Michelle discuss how boundaries, awareness, and connection to yourself is the first, yet incredibly difficult step in a life-long practice.

Stick around until the very end, when Michelle reveals that one of the biggest manipulators in your life may be the person you least expect: yourself and shares insights and practical tools to help you recognize and change those patterns.

In This Episode, We Discuss:

✨ How to identify signs that someone is taking advantage of you.

✨Personal experiences from both Barb and Michelle where they were taken advantage of and what they learned from their own experiences.

✨How to release the shame of being manipulated, and to embrace the awareness that the experience has brought you.
