From &quot;abusive brain chatter&quot; (shame spirals from trauma/core beliefs) to ABC tools (aware, believe, challenge), raw insights on boundaries (bowling-lane metaphor: Stay in your lane!), intuition vs. anxiety (body dialogues, dear God journaling), &amp; compassionate communication (donut method: Appreciate + need + ask).

Jackie Elliott unpacks &quot;abusive brain chatter&quot; (trauma-fueled inner critic leading to addictions like binge eating)—her 31-year journey from emotional abuse/shame to self-love via ABC method (aware of chatter, believe kinder truths, challenge core beliefs). Highlights: People-pleasing pitfalls (acceptance as friendship key), toxic relationships (journal signs to escape gaslighting/isolation), intuition building (quiet tornado head w/ present-moment clicks, body feels for anxiety vs. gut), compassionate comms (donut: Appreciate + need + ask for buy-in). As life/relationship/spiritual coach, Jackie&apos;s retreats (meditation/dance/cacao) &amp; book <em>A Silent Bully</em> (memoir/workbook) empower neurodivergents (autism/ADHD overlaps) to silence bullies, set lanes (boundaries), &amp; trust inner wisdom.
