With October being Domestic Violence Awareness Month, Monica unpacks the trauma-driven dynamics and layered complexities of unhealthy relationships—because violence isn’t always physical. It can also be emotional and mental, and its subtle patterns can chip away at your self-worth, intuition, and power over time.
