Episode description

This interview CHANGED OUR LIVES and our relationships because it turns out… we might be a little toxic (yep, that means you too). So let’s talk about it with Emmalee Bierly, LMFT and Jennifer Chaiken, LMFT of Shrink Chicks. We’re unpacking and working through a whole lot, including:


  • What it actually means to be “toxic”
  • Common ways that we're toxic but might not realize it
  • Anti-relational and dysfunctional behaviors
  • Expecting your partner to KNOW what you need
  • Feeling like your “better” at relationships than your partner
  • What if your partner "shuts down" during fights or discussions
  • Exit language during a fight and what to say instead
  • Taking accountability aka “what part do I play in this?”
  • When you secretly love feeling like the victim
