Summary
Have you ever felt like you were being pushed to your absolute breaking point, only for the other person to remain perfectly calm once you finally snapped? This is called "Reactive Abuse," and it is a calculated setup.In this video, I’m breaking down the "Inside Out" perspective on why an abusive person "pokes the bear" just to watch it explode. We’ll discuss the logic behind the smear campaign, why they want you to look like the "crazy one," and how you can reclaim your power by refusing to take the bait.Stop letting their tactics define your character. Learn how to stay grounded when the pressure is on in order to protect your peace.
