Session 7: Eliminating Toxic Drama 

Why it is important:

The Drama Triangle (Victim–Persecutor–Rescuer) sustains conflict and drains vitality. Stepping outside it fosters empowerment and compassion.

What the roles are

How roles are different from emerging potentials

Consequences of toxic drama

How it works:

IDL interviewing reveals how we unconsciously play these roles and identifies more balanced alternatives.

Interview to Engage:

Interview “Victim,” “Rescuer,” or “Persecutor” as they appear in your life or dreams.

Application/Homework:

• Recognize one daily drama pattern.
• Apply a balanced response learned from the interview.
• Note emotional and relational effects.
