Emotional Abuse Is Real
America Re-Elected Its Narcissistic Abuser, With Lianne Torres
I am thrilled to welcome Lianne Torres to “Emotional Abuse Is Real” today. Lianne is a self-love coach, speaker, domestic violence survivor and advocate – and she is the host of the “Watch Us Thrive” podcast. Just like I do with “Emotional Abuse Is Real,” Lianne uses her podcast to not only share her own story of abuse but to raise awareness about toxic relationships, overcoming trauma, and healing.
Like me, Lianne is devastated that Donald Trump was elected to a second presidential term. The way she sees it, the American people have returned to their narcissistic, abusive partner. We spend most of the episode venting our frustration and voicing our sadness because, even though it’s been a month since Kamala Harris lost the election, many of us continue to deal with a lot of raw emotions. And we're here to tell you that we can still be upset. This was a cathartic conversation for both of us, and I can’t wait for you to hear it.
