Episode 129 - Claiming Your Power In Bullying And Toxic Situations

Bullies can exist in all areas of life, from our personal relationships to our workplace. Today, I have the honor of hosting Marla Bollak, a certified Sacred Depths coach with extensive training in NLP, neuro-coaching, and trauma.


Marla’s mission is truly transformative—she empowers individuals to clear internal and external blocks from toxic relationships in both the workplace and their personal lives. In this episode, Marla shares her deeply personal journey that led her to this path, reveals the insidious ways toxicity can drain us, and offers invaluable insights on dealing with bullying and emotional abuse, whether it's from a spouse, family member, or colleague.


Get ready to explore practical strategies for reclaiming your power, establishing boundaries, and healing from within, no matter where the bullies may exist.
