Can a toxic ex leave you physically itchy? In this episode of Good Moms talk about energy transfer, "spiritually transmitted demons", and what it takes to reinvent yourself when the old version of you no longer fits. From de-centering men (and why that conversation is misunderstood) to centering yourself in a way that finally feels grounding, the girls unpack how survival identities can overstay their welcome. The girls talk honestly about watching close friends finally leave relationships that no longer serve them, how one big decision can completely change your timeline, and why telling your friends the truth (even when it’s uncomfortable) can be an act of love.Erica shares a vulnerable mushroom realization that made her understand why an old, hyper-guarded version of herself needed to be laid to rest, not erased, not shamed, but honored and released.
