Dr. Stephen Paul Edwards

The Back 9: The Venus Fly Trap(you are the Fly)

Four marriages. Four divorces. You’d think a successful, well-known international life coach would recognize the signs—but when Stephen Paul Edwards met a former supermodel, he found himself in a relationship he couldn’t control, couldn’t fix, and couldn’t leave. What felt like connection and passion slowly revealed itself as something far more destructive.

In this episode, Stephen shares a story that’s as seductive as it is chaotic—where warning signs were clear, yet easy to ignore. It’s a deep dive into why even self-aware, successful people stay in toxic relationships, how intensity can mask dysfunction, and what it really feels like to be “the fly in the trap.”

This conversation is about recognizing the pattern, owning your role, and finding the strength to break free. Ready to see the truth behind the trap? Tune in now on The Back 9.
