S9 Ep485: The Cost of Staying: Understanding Toxic Relationships
Update: 2025-10-31
Description
Welcome to the Listen Bitch podcast
your unapologetic wake-up call because inspiration isn’t cutting it anymore. I’m not here to sprinkle toxic positivity motivational fairy dust on your problems. I’m here to push you off the cliff so you finally use those wings you’ve been too scared to test.
This is Season 9, the one where Branden found her voice and shit’s about to get real.
Here’s what you need to know: I’m a potential pusher, not a hand-holder. Think of me as the friend who doesn’t just tell you that you’re amazing I’m the one who sees the greatness you’re sitting on and refuses to let you waste it. I’m here to help you stop playing small, stop making excuses that sound good at brunch, and start building the life that makes your soul feel alive.
This season, we’re going deep into the messy, beautiful work of stepping into your God-given power. We’re talking alignment, not just affirmations. We’re talking about co-creating a life with God as our
Core foundation,
A life you don’t need to escape from. You’ll get the tools, the truth, and that sometimes abrasive nudge that finally gets you moving. Well, I have inspiring guests? Absolutely but right now.
Consider this your permission slip to unleash your inner badass and become the writer of your own story . Because potential without action is just a fancy word for regret.
I’m also opening the doors to Big Bitches Coaching—my dream made real. Here’s the thing: you know that scary move you keep circling around? The business launch, the career pivot, the conversation that could change everything? You’re like someone standing at the edge of a pool, dipping your toe in over and over, convincing yourself you’re “preparing” when really you’re just getting comfortable with staying dry. That’s where I come in. I don’t teach you to swim from the sidelines—I’m the coach who dives in with you, shows you the strokes, and won’t let you drown in your own doubt. You need someone who’s been in the deep end and knows how to get you there without all the dramatic flailing. That’s what Big Bitches Coaching does. We turn that terrifying leap into your launching pad.
Alright, listen up—because I’m about to make somebody’s week.

My powder to Liquid Gold, Without the essential nutrients found in colostrum and AC-11 in your daily routine, you're missing out on key support for your immune system, recovery, and overall vitality. Over time, this lack of nourishment can leave your body vulnerable, struggling to repair itself and fight off daily stressors. Your energy dips, recovery slows, and your body’s natural defenses weaken—putting you at a greater risk for illness, fatigue, and burnout. Don’t wait until it’s too late; make these powerful ingredients a part of your life to feel stronger, healthier, and more resilient every day.
