Be A Better You
The Be a Better You Podcast (formerly The Emotional Abuse Recovery Podcast) is hosted by Best Selling Author and Certified Rapid Reprogramming™ Coach, Allison K. Dagney. As a young adult, I met a man who I believed was the love of my life. We got married quickly and brought three kids into the world. But something was wrong. I was miserable. And I blamed myself for all the problems in our marriage. What I didn't know, was that I was being emotional abused by who I believe is a narcissist. I decided it was time to break free and step into the person I was always meant to be — confident and free to live the life I’ve always imagined.
I escaped, and I turned my personal story of transformation into a memoir. And now I coach women all over the world to help them transform their pain into empowerment, experience peace and joy, and start living life like never before.

Episode 188: The Lone Wolf Trap & Why Healing In Isolation Isn't Working
After emotional abuse, solitude can feel like safety. You tell yourself, I’m fine on my own. I don’t need anyone. But what if that fierce independence—the “lone wolf” mindset—is actually what’s keeping you from healing?
In this episode, author and subconscious-reprogramming coach Allison K. Dagney exposes the hidden cost of trying to heal alone. You’ll learn why isolation keeps your nervous system in survival mode, how hyper-independence is a trauma response, and what happens when you finally allow safe connection back into your life.
Listen as Allison shares real stories from women who tried to “do it all themselves” and found that true peace didn’t come until they let someone in. You’ll also discover:
- The subconscious beliefs that drive the lone-wolf pattern
- Why your body can mistake safety for anxiety
- How co-regulation with safe people rewires your nervous system
- What starts to shift when you stop surviving and start connecting
If you’ve been strong for too long, this conversation will remind you that strength doesn’t mean isolation—it means feeling safe enough to receive support.
