Hey Stepparents,

I’m excited to bring to you Part 2 of my conversation with Allison Dagney, who is a covert abuse survivor, author of When Tears Leave Scars – her personal memoir – and a rapid reprogramming coach for others who have been through the painful experience of emotional abuse.  

In this episode Allison shares why she never wanted to have a conversation with her ex, a key tactic to look out for, what happens when you’re in an unhealthy relationship, and the best thing to do if you or a loved one is being emotionally abused.
