Book: The Stranglers Love

R285,00

In this book, I share my personal journey through a 17-year toxic marriage, beginning at 21 with hope, only to see it shattered by my husband’s life-altering car accident. The emotional toll of living with someone who changed due to brain damage left me trapped in a cycle of confusion and pain. Drawing from my own experience and 24 years of counselling, I explore the impact of toxic relationships, using the Strangler Fig Tree as a metaphor for how these relationships can suffocate us. My hope is that these stories and insights inspire you to recognise toxic patterns and build healthier, more fulfilling connections.

Description

Our romantic relationships profoundly shape our emotional well-being and overall lives. My own journey began at 21 when I married with hope, only for that hope to shatter after my husband’s life-altering car accident. The man I loved transformed, grappling with anger and confusion due to brain damage. For 17 years, I endured a toxic marriage, held back by societal expectations and my beliefs about divorce. It took two decades of emotional turmoil for me to find the strength to leave, a decision that brought its own set of challenges as I worked to heal.

In this book, I share the lessons I’ve learned about toxic relationships, drawing on my experiences and the insights gained from my work in counselling over the past 24 years. Using the Strangler Fig Tree as a metaphor, I explore how such relationships can entangle us, often disguised as love while stifling our potential.

As social beings, we crave connections, but not all relationships uplift us. Recognising toxic behaviours is essential to reclaiming our lives and nurturing healthier connections. My hope is that the stories and reflections within these pages will inspire you to assess your relationships and empower you to seek those that promote your well-being. Let’s embark on this journey together toward healthier, fulfilling romantic relationships.
