Sometimes, we carry over trauma from a bad relationship into a good one, and this can make it difficult to have a fulfilling and happy relationship, even if it's with a good person. This episode discusses how PTSD and past baggage can show up in current relationships, how otherwise healthy behavior can be unsettling or confusing if you’re used to a toxic relationship, and as always, some actionable takeaways for recovering from trauma and building healthier relationships.
