Women of Impact

This is a fan fav episode. What up homies! Lisa Bilyeu here. If you’ve ever wondered if his romantic gestures were just a ploy to trap you, this conversation with Terri Cole is just what you need. In today’s powerful two-part episode of Women of Impact with the insightful Terri Cole, we expose the love bombers and boundary manipulators for what they are. Their tactics of 'unearned intimacy' have not earned your time, your attention or love. As we dive into how they manipulate emotions, paint B.S. visions of a future together you really want to hear just to gain control, I hope you’re taking notes. It's time to have your own back and demand truth in action. Remember, manipulation isn't about love, it's about power. Let's arm ourselves with knowledge and kick these red flags to the curb.  “Our job is to have our own back. Our job is to go, ‘I can count on me to not people-please myself out of my own integrity.’” -Terri Cole If you’re dealing with any kind of abuse and feel unsafe in your relationship, please check out Terri’s podcast episode, How to Safely Leave An Abusive Relationship: ⁠https://www.terricole.com/safely-leave-abusive-relationship/⁠  And… Don’t forget to check out Terri’s latest Boundary Boss Workbook: ⁠https://www.amazon.com/Boundary-Boss-Workbook-Strategies-Over-Giving/dp/1649631421⁠  Original air date: 11-15-2023 Follow Terri Cole: Website: ⁠https://www.terricole.com/⁠  Podcast: ⁠https://www.terricole.com/podcast/⁠  Instagram: ⁠https://www.instagram.com/terricole/⁠  Learn more about your ad choices.
