Self Care Summer

What do you view as a Toxic Relationship? And how do you define "Toxic Relationship"? I feel it is a relationship that is draining, dysfunctional, and unhealth to you mentally and physically. I talk to Dating and Love Coach, Alexis aka Lexi Kailani, to delve deeper on common toxic traits and patterns. And because I'm not biases, we discuss toxic traits that both men and women have. Alexis also taught me a new trait, Stone Walling, if you don't know what this is listen up.
