Character Outs – Details, episodes & analysis

Whale, another one bites the dust.

Not gonna lie, I digress a bit about a recent situation cus another bitch reared her ugly head and left my life.

But, the main point of this episode is because it got me thinking. Well shit, this keeps happening...between my family, and bitches disguised as friends, it's easy to think that we are surrounded by 'drama.' Is it ME??

I had some epiphanies and we chat all about it!

Spoiler alert..no, we do not start drama....

You are not alone and you are certainly not the villain for walking away from you toxic family.

Keep walking friend.

Oh, the tales that our toxic family tell. They can swirl around and behind us like an impending storm. And we thought walking away would stop this!!! (aren't we adorable)

Also-let's be real...the tales are NEVER good.

On this episode of the Character Outs podcast, we dive into how we can navigate this inevitable fallout on this no contact journey.

We discuss:

*Bracing for impact

*Our response

*Remembering the source

*Cultivating our peace

Also-who does this?!?!?!?! Oh yea..ourr families. As if we needed yet another reason to keep walking.

Let's get our heads in the game, remember our worth and keep walking.

On this episode of the Character Outs podcast, we talk about the good ol' apology.

Wait, you mean the kind I have to give?

No.

Ew.

Knock it off.

I am NOT here for that.

Omg, you feel that way about apologies too??

YES! WE CAN DO THIS!!!!

We grew up in a toxic family where an apology was:

~forced

~coerced

~weaponized

When in reality in a healthy and safe relationship an apology is:

~sincere

~genuine

~leads to both parties to being vulnerable

We talk about why we feel that ick associated with giving an apology and how we can get past it.

We got this...

On this episode of The Character Outs Podcast..

The bitch is BACK!

Oh, is it great to be behind the mic again!

On this episode, we talk about the multiverse.

NO, no...not in the Sci-Fi kinda way, but in the way it pertains to us on this no contact with toxic family.

The wonderings of:

*What would my life look like had I not had the childhood that I did.

*What would my life look like if my toxic family member could just be nice and loving (GASP!)

*What if our toxic family member could be present at milestone moments instead of being the absent ass holes that they actually are.

But all that matters is TODAY friend.

Join me in the multiverse, won't you?

In case no one has told you lately, it's not you, never has been, you don't have to fix it and you are not alone.

On this episode of the Character Outs podcast we talk about the haunting of our toxic family members that we have gone no contact with.

Ok, ok..I'm not talking about Ghostbusters shit. I'm talking about when we see, smell or hear something that reminds us of our toxic family.

Let's face it, we went no contact, but they are still a part of our past and our memories.

So...what should we do when they haunt. We will talk all about it.

On this episode of the Character Outs Podcast we talk about the shrinking circle.

Ya know, when you have the bittersweet superpower of seeing:

~manipulation

~passive aggressive behavior

~gas lighting

~crazy making

And....you want to run but you can't because:

~you would be a bitch

~you've been friends with that person forever

~you would be like your toxic family

NO!

On this episode I am on a mission to change the societal perception that having ALLL the friends in the world defines you as a 'good person' and not allowing toxic friends to have access to you makes you a bitch.

I like to consider myself an exclusive club and no, I do not allow a lot of people in. But I am tired of making apologies for my boundaries and standards and keeping toxic people in my life because it's the right and nice thing to do.

We have let go of our toxic families and we are growing and evolving. Not everyone will be able to keep up and...that's OK!

On this episode of the Character Outs podcast we talk about that good ol' phrase I ask myself over and over...

Am I the problem?

Sigh....

That phrase used to haunt me.

Yes, it USED to haunt me.

Not that I feel I have achieved perfection (hell nah.)

I have just refused to comply to the balls of toxicity thrown at me anymore.

Things like...

'Oh, your family doesn't talk to you? YOU must be the problem.'

or

'Oh, your entire family has a problem with you? You must be the common denominator.'

We talk about how to NOT allow these things to bother us anymore cus let's be honest, we are critical enough on ourselves for the entire population, am I right?
