In the first episode of TOXIC, we start where most people don’t — with the question:
Why did no one else think this was a problem?
Being raised by emotionally immature parents or staying in toxic group dynamics can leave you second-guessing your own reality. It doesn’t have to be physical abuse to be damaging. Subtle patterns like chronic guilt, gaslighting, triangulation, and emotional neglect shape the nervous system — and how we learn to survive.
We unpack what “toxic” really means, how group psychology distorts individuality, and why your reactions today might be rooted in things you never had the words for.
You don’t have to rehash the past. But you do have to stop minimizing it.
