345 - Jade's Story (Part 1)

42 min • 11 april 2023

This week on the show, my special guest Jade shares Part 1 of her single mum story.

**Please note this episode and topic may act as a trigger for some people, and this episode is unsuitable to listen to within earshot of children.**

Jade is a single mom who has been through a lot. She was in a relationship where her partner gaslit her, was unfaithful and was emotionally abusive. For a long time, Jade struggled with the effects of her partner's behaviour. She questioned her own sanity and felt like she was losing her grip on reality. Today, she is a thriving woman who is now paying it forward. She is using her own experiences to help others who may be going through similar challenges, helping other women to recognise what is holding them back and reclaiming personal power. 

Her story is a powerful reminder not to ignore the subtle signs of gaslighting and emotional abuse, and that no one deserves to be in an abusive relationship. 

In this episode Jade and I talk about:

  • Her background and her two children.
  • How she met her ex and how their relationship began.
  • Getting pregnant in the early stages of their relationship.
  • The red flags she started noticing.
  • Life after having her first baby.
  • Her Husband’s distant and disappearing behaviour.
  • Finding out about her partner’s betrayal.
  • The gaslighting manipulation and emotional abuse.
  • Getting married despite all the red flags.

 Stay tuned for Part 2 of her story which drops next week.
