****Bonus Episode: Stop Allowing the Disrespect with Tracy Tutor***

Tracy Tutor is the celebrity agent you’ve seen on Million Dollar Listing LA that’s not afraid to conduct business confidently in a crop top and heels. Being disrespected by the people closest to you is never easy. We make excuses and even ignore it and give passes when something has been said or done that we find offensive.Tracy is not one for being intimidated or silenced when boundaries have been crossed, and in this bonus episode we’re getting ideas on how to handle that disrespectful person in your life.

Powerful Words from Mariel Buque:

“When you start wondering if you yourself are someone of worth and value, then we have to really start getting you out of whatever connection you have with that person that is actually making you question your own worth.”

“We may never actually get any kind of ‘I’m sorry’, any kind of validation for our experiences, and so what we need to do is move on and find ourselves yet again.”

“Whenever we have people in our lives that we understand we cannot change, the goal is to change ourselves.”

“My body was literally telling me you are unwell, there is a toxic element of this relationship that is literally manifesting in your body, you need to let it go.”

“Everyone should know what narcissism looks like, what manipulation looks like, the ways that these people hoover their way into your life, how they suck you into cycles, we should all feel some kind of protection from these experiences in relationships.”

“We have to step outside of the relationship we have and really disconnect from it for a moment and identify the beautiful things that we desire, but also that we need for the longterm.”
