The One Who Broke You Can’t Heal You – Najwa Zebian

Description

Some relationships drain us; others help us grow. In this compassionate self-help guide, poet and author Najwa Zebian — author of Welcome Home — explores the bonds that shape our lives, identifying seven kinds: convenient, trauma, toxic, forced, enabling, transactional and healthy.

She helps readers recognise which connections are holding them back, which can be repaired, and how to build healthier ones — and argues that we should stop waiting for closure from the people who hurt us. Combining personal stories with practical steps, it’s a guide to letting go of toxic bonds and reclaiming your own power.
