I’m back — returning with clarity, reflection, and a renewed sense of purpose. After over a year away, navigating a life-changing health journey, I’m here, I’m ready, and I can’t wait to continue this journey with you.

Life reset me: a stroke, two brain aneurysms, and surgeries that made me rethink everything. This comeback episode isn’t just an update — it’s proof that healing, balance, and self-reflection are possible, even in the face of the unexpected. I’m ready to rediscover the direction of Breaking Up with Toxicity and bring this space back to life.

Hosted by me, Maria Shkreli, LMHC, this podcast is a place for honest, thoughtful conversations about toxic patterns, dysfunctional family dynamics, anxiety, ADHD, boundaries, problematic communication, avoidant and anxious attachment challenges, and all the other in-betweens of life that happen.

It’s about learning, growing, and breaking unhealthy cycles — together. Let’s get real, get messy, and start rewriting the way we live and love.
