In this gripping episode of Women of Impact, I want you to think about how much your own words or insecurities, pains and traumas have been used against you to keep you under control. Today, I’m joining forces with psychologist Mariel Buque to tackle the topic of manipulation head-on. Mariel, who went through a two-year grieving process after escaping a toxic relationship herself, shares her insights on shutting down toxic people. From recognizing the signs of manipulation to standing up for yourself without losing control, Mariel doubles down on the kind of advice that can help you finally break these toxic cycles. “We may never actually get any kind of ‘I’m sorry’, any kind of validation for our experiences, and so what we need to do is move on and find ourselves yet again.” -Mariel Buque Discover the tricks and tactics of controlling partners, the impact of gaslighting, and effective strategies to reclaim your power. If you're tired of being manipulated and want to break free from toxic cycles, this episode is a must-listen. And be sure to check out part 2 of this life-changing conversation. We move from unpacking the control game manipulators play to setting up manipulator proof boundaries that will help you move accordingly once you’re free.

It’s easy to tell our friends about why the person you're with isn’t making the cut. Your partner has annoying habits, the sex isn’t that great, it’s not as good as it was when you first hooked up, or they stopped doing the things that grabbed your attention at the beginning. Of all the reasons we can chat over a bottle (or two) of wine about explaining why our relationship isn’t working out, rarely do we reflect on ourselves and how we showed up in that relationship. Stephan Speaks has been helping women (and men) have more fulfilling relationships with the kind of advice that cuts straight through the B.S. and gets right to the heart of the matter. The 100+ million views on his YouTube channel speaks for itself. How do you avoid another bad relationship? How do you choose the best partner for you and invest your time wisely to find the right partner for you? Lisa is digging in and asking all the questions we think about and Stephan is delivering on the hard truths we don’t want to hear, but we need to hear if we’re serious about having a loving, long-term, healthy relationship. You deserve to thrive in your relationship and that means bringing all of you and the best of you to the table with your partner. Some the hard issues Original air date: 2-8-23 Stephan and Lisa are hitting on include: Why relationship tricks and hacks don’t build meaningful relationships Great sex alone is never a valid reason to stay with anyone Exposing the lies and B.S. we’ve been told are the “norm” for relationships It’s time to stop compromising and setting yourself up for heartache and start making better decisions to find and create the relationship of your dreams.

You know those moments when something feels off, but you can’t tell if it’s danger… discomfort… or just two strong personalities clashing? This episode goes straight into one of the most controversial conversations happening right now… and instead of reacting emotionally, we slow it down and analyze the actual behavior. Former CIA intelligence officer Andrew Bustamante joins me to break down behind-the-scenes footage involving Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni, examining body language, power dynamics, control, discomfort, and competition, frame by frame. This is not about picking sides. It’s about learning how to see clearly, protect yourself, and understand what’s really happening when emotions, power, and perception collide. Because as women, the goal is never blind loyalty or blind skepticism. The goal is clarity. Here’s exactly what we dive into: How to spot the difference between control, competition, and discomfort Why discomfort doesn’t always mean powerlessness The subtle body-language cues that reveal who’s actually leading the dynamic How women sometimes use control as a way to feel safe Why two people can both be telling the truth and still be in conflict What this case teaches us about perception, power, and boundaries in real life Show Notes Is This Toxic Masculinity or Weaponized Victimhood? Competition or Control? Breaking Down the On-Set Power Dynamic Is Control a Defense Mechanism When a Woman Feels Unsafe?

This is a fan fav episode. Hey there, homies! Lisa here and I’ve got another mind-blowing episode of Women of Impact with the hormone whisperer herself, Dr. Mindy Pelz. We're about to turn up the heat and talk about something that might make you blush—sex and success! Bet you didn't think those two could be linked, huh? Well, buckle up. In the first part of today’s two-part convo, we're revealing the secret superpowers of your menstrual cycle. From "Power UP Phases" to the 'Hormone Crash’ that will have you thinking you may have been gaslighting yourself all these years, this conversation is a real game changer, and we're spilling all the details. And get this, even your work schedule can inspire some serious bedroom magic and uphill success in your career and relationships. Yup, you heard me right. Your 9-5 can lead to a 10 in the bedroom (and life). We'll also explore why women are twice as likely to find sex boring and how we can shift this narrative.
