Be A Better You
Allison K. Dagney
The Be a Better You Podcast (formerly The Emotional Abuse Recovery Podcast) is hosted by Best Selling Author and Certified Rapid ReprogrammingTM Coach, Allison K. Dagney. As a young adult, I met a man who I believed was the love of my life. We got married quickly and brought three kids into the world. But something was wrong. I was miserable. And I blamed myself for all the problems in our marriage. What I didn't know, was that I was being emotional abused by who I believe is a narcissist. I decided it was time to break free and step into the person I was always meant to be — confident and free to live the life I’ve always imagined.
I escaped, and I turned my personal story of transformation into a memoir. And now I coach women all over the world to help them transform their pain into empowerment, experience peace and joy, and start living life like never before.

In this episode you will learn the different stages of grief so that you can identify where you are along your healing journey and move yourself to the next stage. The most important part is not staying in one stage for too long--so you can heal!

In this episode, we explore the intricate process of recovering from betrayal trauma, going beyond the conventional notions of betrayal. I explore real-life examples that illustrate the diverse facets of betrayal, ranging from lies and gaslighting to emotional manipulation and financial betrayals in various relationship dynamics after emotional and narcissistic abuse. My goal is to shed light on the nuanced experiences of individuals who have faced these challenges and create a space for empathy and understanding. As always, I will get into the realm of subconscious healing, offering practical strategies to challenge ingrained thought patterns. Listeners will discover techniques such as cognitive restructuring, mindfulness practices and emotional releases aimed at fostering healing from within. Listen in as I provide insights and tools for those on the journey to recovery. Additionally, don't miss out on my featured event, the 3 Day Thriver Event starting on January 24th at 7 pm EST, where we'll go even deeper into practical and subconscious healing strategies.
