Teagin Maddox delivers powerfully effective communication strategies for women who want to have relationship success on their terms, especially after they have recovered from domestic violence or a destructive partner. She encourages women to develop awareness about dangerous men/partnerships, and how women can unwittingly interpret meaning and communication before, during, and after a relationship. Personal communication style and patterns affect who we permit into our lives, and who we do not, but when your RADAR is off, problematic relationships develop by default and effortlessly, even in business. When you inspect the details about why the radar is off, it reveals easy, self-preserving solutions that create profound, positive, life changes that are sustainable.
Any relationship that has a consistent pattern of chaos or harm is destructive and dangerous to women. Harm includes emotional, mental, spiritual, professional, financial, sexual, and/or physical. This is often described as domestic violence, but not always; the distinction between domestic violence and destructive relationships is cloudy and there are crossover characteristics that are discounted when physical abuse is not occuring, leading women to stay longer in unworkable relationships. When women experience what could fit into the broader context of destructive or toxic relationships, they eventually see these relationships are harmful to them as well, and feel isolated.
It is difficult to see how the bad relationship started and why these kinds of connections are difficult to break. There is an elevation in certain relationship traits that will keep a woman trapped in believing change is possible when it may not be, further exposing her to more harm, and setting her up to repeat the pattern with another partner.
Successful relationships must be distinguished from relationships with surface-success; Teagin spots it instinctually and teaches other women how to as well. She gets women comfortable with being single, aware of how they lead into relationships, and on track for self-protection and success with love and money.
Developing awareness and validating women in their experiences is the first order of change. Challenging and encouraging women to live authentically and independently in spite of everything creates a new and self-serving woman~with a solid money mindset, an ability to be happy and comfortable single, and an awareness of one's own relationship goals and traits that are independently determined. When all this is developed, it nurtures a woman's goals and desires into reality, ironically allowing love and money to flow.

***HOW TO DATE AFTER A DESTRUCTIVE MAN
If you return to the dating scene after you’ve been with a destructive man and think you don’t need to plan, then I guarantee that you will end up picking your default dude, or should I say, your default dud. If you are not being intentional in picking your new mate, that is exactly what you will get, a dud, and quite possibly, another destructive one. Women who have been with destructive men often rush into new relationships before they have had time to process what happened, and before they understand what to do differently.

***CNN Missed The Point With Charlie Sheen
On CNN’s (HLN) SHOWBIZ TONIGHT with AJ Hammer (January 7, 2010), talking head Brooke Anderson stated: “...Charlie Sheen has had a bad boy reputation for a long time, so people aren’t shocked when he does something out of line, but, if these domestic violence allegations are true, he does need some serious help, the two of them need some serious counseling...before it gets to an extremely dangerous point.” Surely, a knife at your throat is already an extremely dangerous point.

***To Date A Beater or Not?
Any man who hits a woman is not a man who can be trained not to hit a woman; it is one of the lowest things a man can do. It cannot be undone, and it cannot be explained; he will not grow out of it or find someone whom he won’t abuse. His aggression speaks to his raw character and tells you all you need to know about him in one fell swoop. Men don’t hit women because they loose control, make a mistake, or because they were provoked. It is a choice they make every time it happens; it is about maintaining dominance. It is about their insecurity.

***Two Traits Destructive Men Look For
When dealing with a bad guy, your requests, desires, and feelings have to play second to other things in his life. In the beginning, he will put his new gal in low priority as a test of her willingness to bend to his wishes, to see if she will cut herself out at her own expense and pain. Destructive men simply need their women to be a certain way, and in their search for the ones who are highly sentimental and highly empathetic-two of the biggie traits he needs you to have, he will absolutely test you to see if you have these traits, and to see how accessible they are.

Kim Kardashian Highlights Distinction Between Romance & Fantasy
The recent split between Kim and Kris Humphries has been scrutinized to death and Kim has been heavily, and unfairly criticize. The break-up happened because Kim Kardashian came to her senses and realized he wasn’t the catch she thought he was. Why does everyone fault her for that? Clearly, she wasn’t tricked into marriage, but she was living in fantasyland and ignoring, excusing, or reasoning Humphries for things that should have sent her packing soon after they met. You can fault her for that, but not if you understand that she didn’t realize she was forcing the square peg.

***Four Ways to Overcome Your Story
Women who are coming out of destructive relationships have been the most invisible women on the planet. We have been silent for a long time, our lives lacking normal, responsive, interactive, and respectful communication. When our silence finally breaks, however, we suddenly can’t be stopped. We unload stories and examples of what our life has been on anyone who will listen, barely in need of prompting.

***Divorcing Destruction: Think Straight and Think Strong
As women, we typically give, and want, more in relationships than men; we want nice homes and solid families, not just some roof over our heads and a bunch of people co-existing together--although that sure would be easier. Nope; we want constant connection; we want the fairy tale. We are driven to “nest” and we nurture conditionally, we just don’t admit that out loud-but women need to start honoring the conditions nature instilled, because it is women who carry the burden with the disadvantages when things head south.

***Women = Targets: The Perspective of Abusive Men
Women who end up with destructive, abusive, toxic men, have tested 88-95% higher in certain traits than other women. It is no accident or bad luck that you landed a guy that creates chaos and harm in your life; it means you have been found by a destructive guy. Before they know it, women get swept off their feet and are quickly caught up in relationships where they are harmed financially, emotionally, mentally, professionally, spiritually, sexually, physically, or some combination thereof.

Colleges Must Improve Self-Defense Courses for Women
Many colleges offer self defense courses, especially for incoming freshmen, preparing young women with certain skills in physical self defense in case they are ever attacked. This is comforting to parents, but the reality is, their daughters are more likely to be mentally and emotionally intruded upon than attacked, and physical attack will more than likely come from someone they already know or are already in a relationship with~and it will come from someone who got to them mentally and emotionally first. Training in this first line of defense is missing, and desperately needed.

Come On Guys~Divorce Really Isn't a Surprise
Divorce is always good for women, if not right away, then eventually. I say this because women typically do not divorce on a whim, they do so after years sacrificing their wants and needs for the benefit of others, until they finally learn that unhappiness is not par for the course.
