Description

Dr. Heidi Brocke is a Toxic Relationship Awareness & Healing Specialist. After spending 14 years in an extremely emotionally and narcissistically abusive relationship she broke the chains and turned her past into her passion. She left her 24 years career in healthcare to use her life experience and education to be the person she needed when she herself was trapped in the darkness of an unhealthy relationship to provide hope, healing, and freedom to those whose lives have been affected by toxic relationships, emotional abuse, and narcissistic behaviors.
Through education, Dr. Heidi presents the understanding needed to empower others to walk through fear and into their freedom. She has helped hundreds rid and heal their toxic relationships and hosts the popular podcast, It’s Not Normal It’s Toxic: Rid Your Life of Toxic People. She’s an international keynote speaker, recipient of Empowering Women in Business of The Year award by Inspiring Lives Magazine, and has been featured in both Forbes and Time Magazines for the dedication given to her clients and for her work in the toxic relationship area.

Listen in to hear Dr. Heidi share:

Her four-part framework to help women in toxic relationships - whether it’s with a partner, friend, family member, or co-worker

What a “toxic tear down” is and how to recognize it
