Episode Synopsis

Ever wondered if that “toxic” label is being thrown around too loosely—or if there’s something deeper happening in your relationships?
In this episode of The Bossy Big Sis, Brandi sits down with Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist (and host of the Soul Grit Podcast), Ann Taylor McNeese, to talk about those hard-but-necessary conversations around narcissism, family dynamics, boundaries, and faith.
This is not your typical clinical chat—think coffee date with girlfriends, sprinkled with wisdom, laughter, and a whole lot of real talk about what it means to navigate messy relationships while still guarding your heart.
Inside this episode we cover:

The difference between difficult people vs. something more serious
Why boundaries aren’t about controlling others (and what they really are)
How “triggers” show up in everyday life and how to stop letting them run the show
The sneaky ways we over-function in our families and what that costs us
How faith reshapes the way we navigate toxic dynamics and find peace

This conversation will leave you nodding along, reflecting on your own family patterns, and maybe rethinking the way you approach conflict altogether.
Pull up a chair, grab your coffee (or your protein shake), and let’s dig in and you just might shift how you see your relationships.
