Be A Better You
The Be a Better You Podcast (formerly The Emotional Abuse Recovery Podcast) is hosted by Best Selling Author and Certified Rapid Reprogramming™ Coach, Allison K. Dagney. As a young adult, I met a man who I believed was the love of my life. We got married quickly and brought three kids into the world. But something was wrong. I was miserable. And I blamed myself for all the problems in our marriage. What I didn't know, was that I was being emotional abused by who I believe is a narcissist. I decided it was time to break free and step into the person I was always meant to be — confident and free to live the life I’ve always imagined.
I escaped, and I turned my personal story of transformation into a memoir. And now I coach women all over the world to help them transform their pain into empowerment, experience peace and joy, and start living life like never before.

I really appreciate the insight shared in your podcast. It really helped me see that even though I still feel 'stuck', I am actually making progress towards healing and emerging from the pain, and knowing how much I have grown and evolved in the process. And dang, I am strong! And deep down I know my end goal is not 'revenge ', or even justice, it's to finally break the cycle of generational dysfunction so that MY kids will not repeat the same patterns, and they will be better equipped to face difficulties in a healthy way, and cope with trauma even even when it's easier to bottle it in. We can do hard things, and we can do them all alone, if need be. I'm still breathing, so I'm living proof. I'm the example. Thank you again!
