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.

Did you know that there are stages of grief associated with narcissistic and emotional abuse? They follow the traditional stages of grief when it comes to a loss, but there are modified versions to this type of grief.
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!
Emotional abuse often leaves us feeling like we have lost so much but the good news is we can recover. Learning about the stages, where you are and how to get yourself through every stage to heal is paramount!
If you need help moving through your own stages of grief after narcissistic abuse, send me a DM and let's chat!

How ‘Knowing You Know Nothing’ Can Transform Your Life

Be A Better You

12/17/24 • 19 min

Have you ever been so sure you knew something—only to realize later you were way off? In this episode, we dive into the timeless wisdom of Socrates and his famous quote, “The only true wisdom is in knowing you know nothing.” We’ll explore why embracing what you don’t know isn’t a weakness but a superpower that can lead to deeper growth, clarity, and transformation.

I’ll share two humbling stories from my own life—one where my overconfidence in fixing something at home led to a bigger mess, and another about writing my first self-help book without seeking guidance, only to be overwhelmed by edits. Both moments taught me the difference between certainty, confidence, and intuition—and why staying curious and open is the key to navigating life’s challenges.

Whether you’re facing a decision, working on personal growth, or simply trying to better understand yourself and others, this episode will inspire you to let go of the need to have all the answers. Join me as we explore how embracing the unknown can transform the way you approach life, relationships, and even yourself to help you become a better YOU!
