How do you trust yourself to love again after a toxic relationship—especially when trauma got in the way of the love you had?
In this episode of Ask Angela: Relationship Advice for Love After Trauma, Angela Amias responds to a young mother navigating a painful breakup with her child’s father. The love was real—but so were the trauma patterns that made the relationship untenable. Now, she’s wondering how to heal, when to start dating again, and how to break the cycle for good.
Angela explores: • Why even loving relationships can turn toxic when trauma is unhealed • The importance of grieving the relationship you hoped for—not just the one you had • How to recognize red flags early on and trust yourself to respond • What it means to raise your standards for love—especially as a parent • How people-pleasing and self-doubt interfere with choosing safe partners • Why healing includes building the skills to navigate future relationships with care
If you’ve ever looked back on a painful relationship and thought, “I don’t want to do this again,” this episode offers clarity, guidance, and gentle encouragement as you begin again—with a stronger sense of direction.
