Aligned : The Unfiltered Podcast for Founders.

In this episode, Smith and Mayhew dive into the Drama Triangle – a powerful psychological model that explains how people get stuck in toxic cycles of victimhood, rescuing, and blame. Whether it’s in relationships, at work, or even with your own thoughts, understanding these patterns is the first step to breaking free and communicating more effectively. We also introduce the Empowerment Dynamic, the game-changing alternative that helps you take control and move forward in a healthier way.
