Have you been living years in emotional turmoil and uncertainty? Are you tired of waking up feeling like a shadow of your former self, burdened by years of emotional abuse and suffocating doubt? Do you feel trapped in a relationship that has drained your spirit and leaves you questioning your self-worth?

In this podcast, you will find ways to gain personal freedom, healing from trauma and how to stay grounded in faith.

My mission is to help women leave toxic relationships by addressing what's keeping them stuck in codependency. Offering biblical tools and strategies that foster emotional resilience, rebuild self-esteem and break cycles to transition from hardship to happiness.

Concentrated on healing & empowerment, relationships & boundaries and faith & personal growth.

If you're ready to step into a new way of living with God as your Savior instead of a broken man, you came to the right place!

Hey, I'm Amy. A Jesus loving hiking mama and overcomer. I suffered from one abusive relationship after another since birth. My mom gave me up at 3 years old. I was sexually abused from 3-6 by a person I called Dad. I have been married more times than I care to admit. I kept looking for love in all the wrong places and finding myself with emotionally unavailable men. Sometimes an alcoholic, sometimes a drug addict or narcissist but always worse than the last.

I've done countless hours of talk therapy, EMDR, brain-spotting, intensives, retreats, online communities and more.

I finally realized, if I was going to break free from codependency and thrive, I'd need a forward focused mind shift that glorifies God in everything. I mean EVERYTHING!

If you are ready to put codependency behind you and live your highest and best self with healthy boundaries, secure attachment and self-reliance then break the chains and pop the confetti, it's GO TIME!

    3 | Part 2 Narcissist Abuse Affecting Your Nervous System? Time to Speak Up
    Dec 14 2025

    Episode 3 Narcissistic Abuse & Your Nervous System: Reclaiming Your Voice (Part 2)

    In Part 2 of this conversation on narcissistic abuse and the nervous system, we move from awareness into integration — focusing on what it looks like to reclaim your voice, rebuild self-trust, and choose freedom after prolonged emotional abuse.

    If you listened to Episode 2 and found yourself thinking, “That’s me,” this episode is about what comes next.

    I continue my story by sharing how, after years of abuse and trauma, I attended The Bridge to Recovery in Kentucky for six weeks of intensive treatment. That experience helped me address childhood abuse, sexual abuse, neglect, and abandonment — and I left grounded, anchored, and clear.

    But healing doesn’t just live in logic — it lives in the nervous system.

    In this episode, I talk about how even after deep healing work and clarity, the nervous system can still pull you back toward familiar patterns. When this person re-entered my life, my mind knew it was wrong — but my body was still conditioned for survival. The discomfort was there, but my nervous system hadn’t yet learned that safety no longer required chaos.

    It took time for my logic to catch up to what my nervous system had been trained to expect.

    We talk about trauma bonds, why knowing the truth intellectually doesn’t always lead to immediate action, and how healing often unfolds more slowly in the body than in the mind.

    This episode also explores boundaries — not as punishment or control, but as protection. Boundaries are not about changing the abuser; they are about honoring yourself, guarding your heart, and partnering with God in your healing.

    This is an episode about discernment, not self-blame. About restoration, not rushing. And about learning how to live from truth instead of fear.

    What This Episode Covers • Why clarity doesn’t always lead to immediate action • How trauma bonds keep the nervous system stuck • Healing after intensive trauma treatment • Why your body may resist safety even when your mind is clear • Reclaiming your voice without forcing or shaming yourself • Boundaries as nervous system protection • Discernment versus self-doubt • What healing actually looks like in real time

    Nervous System Insight Healing happens when your body learns that it is finally safe to tell the truth. You don’t have to force yourself to be brave — safety is built through consistency, compassion, and honoring your limits.

    Biblical Perspective God restores agency. He does not require endurance at the cost of your well-being.

    • Proverbs 4:23 — “Guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it.” • Psalm 147:3 — “He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds.” • Isaiah 61:1 — “He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted… to proclaim freedom for the captives.”

    If This Resonates If you are learning how to trust yourself again, stay grounded in truth, or hold your boundaries even when it feels uncomfortable, you are not behind — you are healing.

    You are God’s daughter — beloved, deeply known and understood, with potential and purpose.

    XOXO, Amy

    Episode 2 Narcissistic Abuse & Your Nervous System: Time to Speak Up (Part 1) In this episode of Leave Your Toxic Relationship, we cut through the lies, confront destructive patterns, and use God’s truth to begin stepping into freedom. If you’ve ever been told by a covert narcissist that you’re “mentally unstable,” “too emotional,” or that you need psychiatric help, this episode will help you understand what was really happening behind closed doors. I share personal examples of covert narcissistic abuse, manipulation, and gaslighting, and explain how these dynamics quietly train your nervous system to stay silent, doubt yourself, and tolerate mistreatment. This episode is about awareness — not shame. My Story I open this episode by sharing how what appeared to be a proposal and a future together quickly became another layer of control and emotional harm. From a fake ring and a confusing, emotionally disconnected proposal, to a deeply one-sided premarital agreement, the message beneath the surface was clear: I was not meant to feel secure, chosen, or protected. The premarital agreement outlined restrictions that left me without financial autonomy, ownership, or long-term security — even in the event of his death. Nothing could be in my name. My children would receive nothing. Everything would remain under his control. What should have been a season of love instead became a season of emotional deflation, confusion, grief, and self-doubt. And yet, when I reacted with sadness or hesitation, the narrative was turned back on me — as if my response was the problem, not the circumstances. This is how covert narcissistic abuse operates: not through overt cruelty, but through the quiet erosion of safety, voice, and worth. What This Episode Covers • How covert narcissistic abuse happens behind closed doors • Why moments that should feel joyful often feel confusing or hollow • How control is disguised as “logic,” “protection,” or “starting points” • The role gaslighting plays in making you doubt your reactions • How repeated emotional invalidation conditions your nervous system • Why speaking up begins to feel unsafe — even when something feels wrong Nervous System Impact When abuse is subtle and ongoing, your nervous system adapts in order to survive. You may notice: • Shutting down instead of speaking up • Feeling emotionally deflated or frozen • Confusion about why you feel sad when “nothing obvious” is wrong • Fear of expressing needs or concerns • A growing sense that your voice doesn’t matter These responses are not weakness — they are survival strategies. Your body learns that staying quiet feels safer than being honest. Biblical Perspective God is not the author of confusion or control. • John 8:32 — “And you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.” • Proverbs 4:23 — Guarding your heart includes paying attention to what drains it. • Galatians 5:1 — “It is for freedom that Christ has set us free.” God’s design for love does not require you to disappear, shrink, or surrender your agency. If This Resonates If you’ve ever: • Felt deflated instead of cherished • Been told you were “too much” for reacting to mistreatment • Struggled to explain why something felt wrong • Learned to stay silent to keep the peace You are not imagining it. Your nervous system learned what your mouth was not allowed to say. What’s Next This is Part 1 of a two-part conversation. In Episode 3, I’ll continue my story and talk about what it looks like to begin reclaiming your voice and rebuilding self-trust.

    1 | Gaslighting & Narcissist Abuse Affecting Your Mental Health? God Will Carry You
    Dec 14 2025

    Episode 1 Gaslighting, Codependency, and Your Nervous System: Breaking the Silence

    In this first episode of Leave Your Toxic Relationship, we confront destructive patterns, expose gaslighting, and use God’s truth to begin stepping into freedom.

    Is staying silent betraying your own well-being? When does keeping the peace begin to do more harm than good?

    In this episode, we talk about abuse, gaslighting, and the nervous system — and how God can use everything meant to break you for His glory.

    I share how cycles of childhood abuse, emotional neglect, and learned silence can train us to ignore our own needs and tolerate mistreatment in adulthood. Many women who find themselves in abusive relationships learned early on that their thoughts, feelings, wants, and needs did not matter — and that conditioning doesn’t simply disappear with age.

    We explore how codependency develops as a survival strategy, why red flags are often ignored, and how gaslighting causes women to question their reality and distrust themselves.

    This episode also addresses covert narcissistic abuse — how image control, manipulation, and lack of accountability operate behind closed doors — and why trying to change or save an abuser only deepens harm.

    This is not about shame. This is about understanding what happened to you so healing can begin.

    What This Episode Covers • Why staying silent can damage your emotional and physical health • How childhood trauma conditions us to neglect our own needs • The connection between abuse, codependency, and gaslighting • Why your nervous system may recognize abuse as “normal” • How covert narcissism operates through image management and deception • Why abusers rarely change and refuse accountability • The mental health impacts of long-term narcissistic abuse • Why forgiveness does not mean forgetting or allowing continued harm

    Nervous System Insight When abuse is familiar, your body may interpret chaos as safety and calm as threat. This does not mean you are broken — it means your nervous system learned how to survive.

    Biblical Perspective God is not asking you to stay silent in order to be faithful.

    • John 8:32 — “And you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.” • Romans 8:28 — God can redeem what was meant to harm you. • Galatians 5:1 — “It is for freedom that Christ has set us free.”

    If This Resonates If you’ve ever questioned your reality, minimized abuse, or wondered how you ended up here — you are not alone, and it is not your fault.

    Call to Action If this episode resonated with you, I’d love for you to help this podcast reach more women who need clarity and freedom.
