the podcast:

Toxic family? Welcome to a podcast that isn’t going to tell you to fix it, just because they are family. Talking about all the emotions of no contact. The Character Outs podcast offers support to those who have broken free of a toxic family. It is a podcast that isn’t going to tell you to fix it just because, ‘they are family.’ Whether you are dealing with a narcissistic mother, an ass hole father with an enabling, alcoholic stepmom, or a golden child brother. Wait, I just told you about my family! We talk about all of the emotions associated with this no contact journey. This podcast is here to remind you why you left and remind you of your worth. I have guests share their stories of survival, as well as guests who discuss ways in which we can heal and cope with our trauma responses. Interested in being on the podcast? Email me:

who the hell am i?

If you are new here, my name is Terri. I am a mom, survivor and winner of the toxic family jackpot. After years of trying to fix things, being discarded by my narcissistic mother a thousand times and having my father tell my husband: “My daughter is dead to me.” I realized that I cannot have peace and family at the same time. But when the dust settled, I found that society was treating me like the villain. Oh, I was such an ass hole for not allowing my family to emotionally abuse me and my children anymore. I’m sorry, WHAT?!! That sent me on a mission to change the societal narrative associated with going no contact with toxic family. No, you are not a villain for making the choice to preserve your peace and the peace of your children by severing ties with toxic family. It is a brave and powerful choice to break toxic generational cycles and live your life in peace. If you are no contact you will agree, it is not a life any of us would have chosen, but here we are. You don’t get it unless you have lived it.

season 2

Season 2 of the Character Outs Podcast will be dropping on March 18th and one of the new things you will see is…THE BLOG!

Here we will chat more in depth about the latest episode of the podcast, share relevant resources and further discuss this no contact with toxic family journey.

So, I love cooking, baking and trying new cocktail recipes. Being in the kitchen is a cathartic activity for me. Whether you love to cook or just have to eat, I got you. I have some delicious and easy recipes and thought it would be a fun way to connect as a community.
