Overcoming Manipulation: A Story of Awakening, Self-Trust and Power Reclaiming

The Amanda Quick Show

Imagine being blindsided by the love of your life, the man you trusted, the father of your children, when he gets arrested for human trafficking. That was my reality in 2016. I couldn't see the red flags right in front of me, but why couldn't I? Perhaps it was my childhood experiences, the unhealthy relationships modeled by my parents, or my own stubborn certainty that had blinded me.
Fast forward to the present, and I've gained some hard-earned wisdom about manipulative relationships. I had been fooled, lied to, and manipulated into doing things against my better judgment. My feelings were often invalidated, and I was slowly losing my identity. But I clawed my way out. I questioned my circumstances, listened to my intuition, and took the necessary steps to ensure the safety of my children.
The experience taught me the power of intuition. It's something we all possess, but often suppress to our detriment. I'll share how I learned to trust my instincts, even when everything seemed fine on the surface. If there's one thing I hope you take away from my story, it's this: It's never too late to reclaim your power, to start listening to your intuition, and to reach out for support. You, too, can survive, discover yourself, and take control of your life. Don't wait for a dramatic wake-up call like mine. Start today.
