This is such an important thing to share! I'm so glad that we're putting attention on this topic when so many people are struggling with these issues.

I have had some experiences with this, especially in relation to my mother's divorce from my father. I really used that experience to shape what I perceive a healthy relationship looks like and know very well what I'm worth so that I don't go through what my mother did. (Of course, this is thanks to my mother as well). Because of this, I know that communication and respect are essential components of a healthy relationship.
