Understanding the Basics of Abuse Psychology | The Secrets of a Witch Podcast with Sabrina Scott episode 43

Okay, I know this isn’t about witchcraft - but guess what? Witches are, above all, PEOPLE. And if I had a dollar for every time someone emailed me crying over someone who was very clearly abusive, I would be a bazillionaire. In this episode I explain the basics of abuse psychology as I understand it - the fundamentals of how it works, how people get sucked in, what kind of relationships this can happen in, and some basic warning signs to look out for. It can be hard to get out of these connections once they really get rolling; listen to this episode to learn big red flags and signs that you absolutely need to disconnect. I end with a pep talk for anyone going through something hot and cold - love does NOT have to feel that way! Sometimes the best magic is to LEAVE. Sending everyone love and good energy! If you find this episode healing or helpful, please share it with a friend or loved one who could benefit.
