Stop Being A Doormat! - Walk Away From Toxic People Before It’s Too Late...| Najwa Zebian

The Adversity Advantage with Doug Bopst

Dr. Najwa Zebian is an activist, educator, speaker, author and relationship expert. Dr. Zebian began to write in an effort to connect with and heal her first students, a group of young refugees, but found that she was also writing to heal herself. In her first book, Welcome Home, she presented a guide for people to become a safe space for themselves, to see themselves through their own eyes, and to leave self-abandoning patterns behind.

Today on the show we discuss: the risks of keeping a toxic person in your life, what a toxic relationship will do to your mental health, the difference between a bad partner and a toxic one, 3 tips for dealing with toxic people, the signs of a toxic friendship, why people repeatedly get into toxic relationships, the biggest battle Najwa faces with her inner voice and more.
