227: What To Do When the People You Trust Weaponise Your Vulnerability

What do you do when someone you trust uses your vulnerability against you? In this episode, Roula opens up a deeply relatable conversation about what happens when personal things you’ve shared in confidence get thrown back at you during arguments. Not out of cruelty, but in the heat of the moment. Rosie and Roula explore the tension between wanting to maintain an important relationship and needing to protect yourself from being hurt again. They talk about the grief that comes with changing how much you share, the difference between values and approaches, and why some topics are better left untouched when fundamental beliefs clash. The conversation moves into boundaries, repair versus blame, and how taking responsibility for your own part doesn’t mean excusing harmful behaviour. This episode is about clarity, emotional safety, and learning how to keep people in your life without sacrificing yourself in the process. Have you ever stopped sharing parts of yourself to protect a relationship, and did it help or change things for the better?
