EP #5: Overcoming MENTAL and EMOTIONAL Abuse in Relationships with KADI HACKBARTH

Published: March 17, 2020, 6 p.m.

Unfortunately, mental abuse is very common in our society today. My guest, Kadi Hackbarth, is with me to Speak LOUD of her own abusive past and how she has triumphed over her experiences in a mentally abusive relationship.
Kadi explains that she covered up and hid the mental abuse she was enduring, never expressing her experiences with anyone because she didn’t want to admit the abuse she was facing. Love for Kadi, and so many others, blinded her to the truth of the mental abuse being inflicted on her.

Kadi describes how her narcissistic abuser would twist things and manipulate her to impose his mental abuse on her. She was constantly degraded and belittled. Because of her experience with mental abuse, Kadi struggles not to project the trauma she carries onto her current relationship.

After getting out of her mentally abusive relationship and reacting to the abuse from her partner and the emotional wounds that plagued her, Kadi worked with a counselor and built up a strong support system to help her overcome her abuse and find her strength.

Kadi shares how she overcame her mental abuse and has shifted her focus to flourishing in her life and cultivating healthy relationships. Kadi explains how she uses her smile to fuel her resilience and empower her to keep fighting and help others speak out against abuse. 

Kadi encourages listeners to cling to positivity and trust that there is a reason for every season in life.
