Let's Just Face It
Welcome, I’m your host, Luna. Life has a way of leading us through storms — the kind that shake us, break us, and drench us in shadows. But even the darkest skies eventually give way to light, and every storm carries within it the promise of a rainbow.
This podcast is a journey of transformation — where we take the heavy, hidden, and painful parts of life and turn them into strength, wisdom, and hope. Together, we’ll explore what it means to walk through darkness and emerge into light, to reclaim your power, and to find beauty in places once filled with sorrow.
Here, you are not alone. Each episode is an invitation to rise, to heal, and to remember that even the smallest flicker of light can illuminate the path forward.
Join me as we step out of the storm and into the rainbow — one story, one breath, one moment at a time.
Through our storms, we find the rainbow - Luna

66. Hoovering: Manipulation Tactics and How to Protect Yourself
Hoovering is also known as emotional blackmail as part of the emotional abuse provoked by a narcissist, it happens when they think they're losing control of you. It's an attempt to reactivate the connection to make you engage with them once again for another cycle of abuse.
The name Hoovering comes from Hoover, the vacuum cleaner brand. Meaning the narcissists sucks the happiness out of you to fuel their supply. It may look like you're being manipulated through a relationship you didn't want to be with because they start threatening you by becoming suicidal or causing self-harm.
Hoovering might be displayed in many different ways, but it all leads to rekindling the connection between the two of you. It's an emotional manipulation to get you to react and re-engage.
