Podcasts about abusers

To Align with your Divine within is to Align with your humanity. Essence of our humanity is under attack- not by demons, aliens, or Artificial Intelligence  per se, but by self appointed self anointed global leaders who are hellbent on destroying our spirit of humanity. It was my experience as detailed in ACCESS DENIED For Reasons of National Security that these globalist perpeTraitors follow a linear DARPA generated plan. They believe all creation, our planet included, is flawed in its divine design, just as they believe our bodies need their 78+ vaccines to fix ‘genetic flaws'. These dark perpeTraitors feel justified in ‘saving' our planet from their belief the sun is destroying it. DARPA's conclusion inspires believers to play god by cross breeding genetically altered humanity with AI while also actively working to block our sun. The audacity of these power mongers is inconceivable!As my daughter Kelly observed, “Sun is the SOULar battery of all existence on earth.”We need sunlight for optimum mental health and for grounding into our true nature. Our nature is our humanity- who we are intended to be and how life is intended to be lived.To disrupt our essence of humanity, mind control is being used to block our ability to Align with our Divine within, which in turn inhibits access to soul expression, strength of spirit, and our innate energy source of infinite power of love. Without free thought, there is no free will soul expression. No ability to remember who we are and why we are here. No capacity for connecting with each other on energetic, loving levels of compassion, understanding, and unity. United we stand against these perpeTraitors of humanity who mask themselves as gods to lord over our existence.Equally as alarming as discussed by George Bush Sr. at Bohemian Grove in 1985 is that if their New World Order agenda fails, then those playing god will destroy our planet. Wouldn't blocking the sun do that anyway? Semantics aside, the end game of these dark negative energy force perpeTraitors is our demise. When we Align with our Divine within, we have wisdom. Wisdom is our saving grace to outthink criminal minds and AI's linear plan every time.  Preservation of free thought is key. Knowledge is our defense against their mind control.Traumatic fear is the basis of all mind control as puppetmasters manipulate humanity's brain defense mechanism against incomprehensible trauma to their advantage. It was found through Hitler/Himmler research that there is no trauma more horrific on the human mind than sexual abuse of a child prior to age 5 while the brain is still forming. Similarly satanic ritual abuse has the same effect of shutting down neuron pathways of conscious thought, leaving the subconscious wide open to being led, manipulated, and programmed to drive future thoughts.Many children, including myself, have experienced trauma beyond comprehension to render us compliant and malleable for controllers' vision of how life should be lived based on their own fears that the world is ending. Our humanity is under attack because our strength of spirit is perpeTraitors' greatest fear. Many children, me included, witnessed other children being sacrificed at their alter of justification. Many victims of traumatic mind control died, which is also in keeping with depopulation agenda to reduce humanity's numbers to a much more manageable size. Abusers have no remorse in their justifications. Yet children who witness and experience the demise of others are left with the same traumatic dilemma that most military veterans experience:Why did I survive when others didn't?Read the full article on Cathy's website Here!

No one likes talking about child sex abuse. But prevention experts say we need to bring pedophilia out of the shadows if we ever want to end abuse. They insist, it is not inevitable. CBC producer John Chipman explores an innovative new program in Kitchener, Ontario, that has sex offenders and abuse survivors working together to prevent future harm and promote healing. *This episode originally aired on Sept. 23, 2024.

By some estimates, some 90% of murders in Mexico go unpunished. But when a woman in Mexico kills an abusive partner, many of them do end up in jail convicted of "excessive use of legitimate force". Mexican singer-songwriter Vivir Quintana started looking into the issue and found compelling, tragic tales. We speak to Quintana about her new album which tells the stories of some of these women.Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

How are some people using technology as a means to control their partners?Charities have warned that coercive control through technology is on the rise. A woman from north Cumbria has anonymously spoken to ITV News about her experience, explaining how she first thought it was "sweet" and "loving" that her former partner wanted to know where she was all the time.However, she soon realised something much more sinister was happening...ITV Border reporter, Katie Templeton-Knight tells Lucy Watson what you need to know.--Domestic Abuse Advice and Support:Refuge:Refuge supports more than 6,000 clients on any one day, helping them rebuild their lives and overcome many different forms of violence and abuse.They have a step-by-step guide online as well as an interactive tool about how to secure your phone if you suspect technology-facilitated abuse is happening to you.If you, or someone you care about, is experiencing domestic abuse, you can call The National Domestic Abuse Helpline on 0808 2000 247.The Revenge Porn Helpline:The Revenge Porn Helpline supports all adult victims of intimate image abuse living in the UK.

Send us a textThe landscape of power, fame, and accountability collides in our latest episode as we unpack the shocking testimony in Diddy's trial. Cassie's brave recounting of years of abuse doesn't just tell her story – it potentially exposes an entire system of enablers around one of music's most powerful figures. The details are disturbing, from alleged beatings that left her unable to perform to "freak offs" that she described as more job than creative partnership.We shift gears to examine DDG's troubling domestic violence allegations from Halle Bailey, including claims he slammed her head into a steering wheel and weaponized his fanbase against her. What happens when influencer power dynamics spill into co-parenting? And why do these patterns seem so familiar in celebrity relationships?The conversation takes a critical turn as we dissect how "Black fatigue" – originally meaning the exhaustion Black Americans feel from systemic racism – has been twisted by some white Americans to express their own impatience with discussions about race. This linguistic co-opting represents a broader pattern of appropriating and inverting terminology meant to describe marginalized experiences.From examining Netflix's "Forever" and its portrayal of young Black love to questioning the dubious "refugee" status granted to white South African farmers, we're asking the hard questions about how power, race, and media narratives shape our understanding of the world around us.We round out the episode with a surprising geopolitical twist: Trump's acceptance of a $400 million plane from Qatar, a nation he previously condemned as "funders of terrorism." What changed? And what does this suggest about potential conflicts of interest?

In this episode of Narcissist Apocalypse, Tammy shares her story about meeting her future husband on Tinder. He quickly pushed Tammy's boundaries, and manipulated her into thinking it was because of life experience and cultural differences. The abuser isolated Tammy from everyone, so when the physical abuse began, she didn't have anyone to turn to because of the shame attached to it. Tammy eventually sought help, obtained an intervention order, and began healing, reflecting on the parallels between her abusive partner and her manipulative mother. It's a story of intimidation, shame, guilt, trauma bonds, gaslighting, manipulation, financial abuse, physical abuse, sexual abuse, sexual assault, suicidal ideation, isolation, intergenerational trauma, put downs, and depression. *** CONTENT WARNING - This episode discusses physical abuse, sexual abuse, sexual assault, and suicidal ideation. *** If you want to be a guest on our survivor story podcast, please ⁠⁠⁠⁠click here⁠⁠⁠⁠ or send us an email at narcissistapocalypse@gmail.com PODCAST RECOMMENDATIONS: Perfect Prey With Dr. Christine Cocchiola | ⁠⁠⁠⁠Click Here⁠⁠⁠⁠ The Covert Narcissism Podcast | ⁠⁠⁠⁠Click Here⁠⁠⁠⁠ Something Was Wrong | ⁠⁠⁠⁠Click Here⁠⁠⁠⁠ When Dating Hurts Podcast | ⁠⁠⁠⁠Click Here⁠⁠⁠⁠ If you or someone you know are experiencing abuse, you are not alone. DomesticShelters.org offers an extensive library of articles and resources that can help you make sense of what you're experiencing, connect you with local resources and find ways to heal and move forward. Visit ⁠⁠⁠⁠www.domesticshelters.org⁠⁠⁠⁠ to access this free resource.  If you need help moving due to domestic violence, Shelter Movers may be able to help you.

Living with a verbal abuser can be devastating. Can an abuser change? Yes, but the abuser must be willing to change. If they don't, separation might be the loving action you'll need to take to motivate them to change.Donate to Moody Radio: http://moodyradio.org/donateto/lovelanguageminuteSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We are all vulnerable to digital surveillance, as there's little protection to prevent our phones from getting hacked. Mercenary spyware products like Pegasus are powerful and sophisticated, marketed to government clients around the world. Cybersecurity expert Ron Deibert tells IDEAS, "the latest versions can be implanted on anyone's device anywhere in the world and as we speak, there is literally no defence against it.” Deibert is the founder of the Citizen Lab at the University of Toronto, a group of tech-savvy researchers who dig into the internet, looking for the bad actors in the marketplace for high-tech surveillance and disinformation. In his new book, Chasing Shadows, he shares notorious cases he and his colleagues have worked on and reveals the dark underworld of digital espionage and subversion.

Language shapes how we see ourselves, our experiences, and our healing journey. In this episode of The Rising Beyond Podcast, we're diving into why words matter for survivors of domestic violence—how they can be used to manipulate and harm, and how they can also be reclaimed to empower and heal.What You'll Learn in This Episode: ✔️ The power of survivor language vs. the gaslighting words abusers use. ✔️ How trauma-informed language can support healing while victim-blaming language hinders it. ✔️ The role of the media and family court in shaping narratives around abuse. ✔️ How abusers weaponize language to maintain control—gaslighting, word salad, and blame-shifting. ✔️ Why naming experiences like coercive control, post-separation abuse, and trauma bonding is so validating. ✔️ The impact of self-talk on your recovery and how to reframe harmful internalized messages. ✔️ How to reclaim your narrative and choose empowering language for yourself.Why This Matters:Language isn't just about words—it's about power, control, validation, and healing. When survivors don't have the right words to describe their experiences, they can feel lost or even doubt their own reality. But when they do? It's like turning on a light in a dark room.Glossary: www.risingbeyondpc.com/glossaryPlease leave us a review or rating and follow/subscribe to the show.

Join us on this eye-opening discussion on Narcissist Apocalypse Q&A as we dissect the fabric of lies that often underpin abusive relationships. In the first part of our conversation, we uncover the three major untruths that abusers project onto their victims: victims are responsible for the abuser's happiness, victims are responsible for the abuser's anger, and victims are responsible for fixing the relationship. We explore how these manipulative falsehoods can lead to self-abandonment, self-doubt, and the false illusion of happiness.  In the latter half of our episode, we shift focus to the lies victims convince themselves of to justify staying in an abusive relationship. From the illusion of a brighter future to the fear that the kids will suffer if they leave, we shed light on the insidious manipulation tactics employed by abusers. Tune in to gain a deeper understanding of these complex dynamics, the importance of recognizing abusive behaviors, and the critical role of challenging these lies in the path to recovery.

In this episode, Lundy Bancroft, a renowned expert on narcissism, abusive relationships, and the family court system, reveals how abusive men manipulate both their partners and the legal system to maintain control. With over 30 years of experience working with abusers and training professionals, Lundy exposes the subtle and overt tactics used by high-conflict individuals to gain power in custody disputes and other legal battles. He shares eye-opening insights from his books, Why Does He Do That? and The Batterer as Parent, highlighting the systemic failures in family courts that often work in favor of abusers, despite clear evidence of harm. Lundy explains why survivors of abuse find themselves in difficult, uphill battles when trying to protect their children and the emotional toll this takes. Lundy also provides practical advice for mothers navigating high-conflict divorces and custody disputes, outlining critical steps to level the playing field and protect children from further harm. He dives deep into the biases within the legal process that enable dangerous individuals to gain access to their children, even when their behavior is abusive. Through this conversation, Lundy offers a powerful look into how the family court system operates, how survivors can reclaim their power, and the ways in which we can push back against a broken system.

In today's episode, I answer a question about surviving a husband's rage while still in the home and preparing to leave. I want to share insights on coping strategies, the importance of unhooking from an abuser's words, and how to create a safety plan. If you're living in survival mode, this episode offers encouragement and practical steps to help you move toward freedom and healing.Key Takeaways:Fear is a natural response to an abusive environment. Trying to "toughen up" emotions to endure abuse is not the solution; rather, finding ways to escape is essential.Unhook from his words. An abuser's insults and accusations are projections of their own delusions, not reflections of your worth.Abusers see their victims as LEGO characters. They create a false narrative about who you are and expect you to conform. Recognizing this can help you detach emotionally.Radical acceptance is necessary. Understand that an abusive partner does not want genuine connection—only control and transaction.Survival mode is not living. Every day you endure abuse is survival, but true healing comes from stepping into a life of freedom.You deserve a future beyond survival. Healing is possible, and there are communities and resources to help you move forward.Read the show notes and/or ask Natalie a question hereRelated Resources:Need a resource to help you as you unhook?

When comedian Chelsea Devantez began writing her memoir, she knew exactly where to start: with a teenage relationship that spiraled into domestic violence. But when she submitted her draft, lawyers informed her she legally couldn't name her abuser or detail what happened. "I threw the book in the trash for a few months," Chelsea recalls. After consulting friends and family, she decided to continue writing with a new approach. "Instead of telling my story, I would try to tell the story of how our systems are set up to silence." In this episode, Chelsea and Anna also discuss how a complex PTSD diagnosis helped explain puzzling personality traits, friendship breakups, family secrets, and navigating a male-dominated, rich kid comedy scene. Chelsea Devantez's memoir is called I Shouldn't Be Telling You This: (But I'm Going to Anyway), and she has a podcast called Glamorous Trash: A Celebrity Memoir Podcast.  Podcast production by Zoe Azulay and Andrew Dunn.

Jared Freid is back for another Ticked Off Tuesday, and the complaints are rolling in hotter than airplane Wi-Fi (which, by the way, is its own nightmare). This week, listeners sound off on the little things that drive them crazy:One listener shares her frustration with coworkers who abuse the “reply all” button, turning a simple scheduling request into a never-ending email thread. Then, a listener defends Kendrick Lamar's Super Bowl halftime show, calling out boomers who can't handle a performance that isn't tailored to them — if we can sit through The Who and Tom Petty, they can handle a few songs from an award-winning album.Valentine's Day drama makes an appearance, too, with a listener who asked her husband for See's Candies weeks in advance, only to watch him fumble the bag while a sixth grader successfully scored chocolates for his girlfriend.Jared reads it all with his signature mix of empathy and roast-level honesty. Buckle up — it's a therapeutic vent session you won't want to miss!Want more JTRAIN? Join the Patreon for more, listen to Coffee with JTrain, & send an email to
