Summary
Ally talks about emotional abuse and defines what gaslighting is. She also goes into signs of an abusive person.
Heart of Dating welcome the incredibly Allison Fallon to the show this week. Ally writes books, helps people write books and believes a regular practice of writing can change your life. She is the author of 12 books (and counting) sought-after public speaker and coach to hundreds of authors from New York Times Bestsellers to total beginners. She has spent the last decade coaching hundreds of people to gain confidence, overcome writer’s block and get their stories on paper. Even if you say, “I’m not a writer” she can show you how a daily practice of writing can improve your sleep, your focus, your creativity, your productivity, and even your relationships.
Also, Allison recently launched a BRAND NEW website called, findyourvoice.com. This brand new site has tons of resources to help people get started in a practice of writing for the first time—something you can use for self-discovery, spirituality, self-therapy or a way to process something that’s happened to them that they don’t understand (even a break-up!). We highly encourage you to check it out!
This week Allison and Kait talk about abuse, both emotional and physical aspects. What are the signs? Why do people stay in relationships? How do you know that you should get out of a relationship? They also discuss the term gaslighting, and how that plays out in relationships.
