Katie and Helen provide everyday examples of what these dynamics can look like, why it can be extremely challenging for a survivor of this type of abuse to acknowledge their own experience (and why there's no such thing as an "empath"), and what steps can be taken towards healing and unlearning unhealthy behaviors.
