Are Christians telling you to stay with an abusive husband no matter what? In this video, I show you exactly what to say when church leaders, pastors, friends, or family pressure you to remain married to a narcissistic or abusive spouse. If you're a Christian woman experiencing narcissistic abuse, you've likely heard statements like: • "It's not really abuse." • "You need to submit." • "God will change him." • "You have no biblical reason to divorce." • "Stay married for the children." These statements are not only wrong — they can keep you trauma bonded to a man who is slowly destroying you and your children. In this video, I explain: ✔ How narcissists use Christian "flying monkeys" ✔ Why love does NOT change a narcissist ✔ What the Bible actually says about abuse and separation ✔ How to give one strong, truthful response — and move on ✔ Why protecting yourself is not unbiblical If you are struggling with Christian guilt, spiritual manipulation, or pressure to stay in an abusive marriage, this teaching will strengthen and empower you. You are not crazy. You are not overreacting. And you are not required to stay and be destroyed.

In this re-release episode of Narcissist Apocalypse, we hear Kelowna's life of living in abuse. Nothing Kelowna ever did was good enough for her abusive mother. All Kelowna knew was an ever-present sense of worthlessness as her mother's scapegoat. By the age of 14, Kelowna's mother pushed her right into the hands of her future abusive husband. And by the age of 20, Kelowna was pregnant and stuck in a very controlling relationship. It's a story of not feeling good enough, caretaking, parentification, manipulation, insecurities, feeling stuck, financial abuse, infidelity, no contact, sexual abuse, and physical abuse. *** CONTENT WARNING - This episode discusses physical abuse and sexual abuse. *** Click if you want to be a guest on our survivor story podcast, please send us an email at narcissistapocalypse@pm.me Click on the title to read about Coercive Control as Care: Signs & Patterns Sign up to our Domestic Violence Newsletter Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

In part three of our bullying series, we tackle some of the toughest conversations ballet parents face: what to do when teachers make harmful comments about weight, body image, or use abusive language in class. Psychotherapist Kelsey Fyffe and educator Suzette Takei give parents the exact roadmap for addressing these issues at ballet schools and pre-professional programs. Kelsey, who specializes in eating disorders and works with Houston Ballet Academy, explains why pre-professional students should never be put on diets, what questions to ask about a studio's approach to body image, and how to tell the difference between giving corrections and promoting disordered eating. She shares specific language for approaching ballet teachers and administrators, starting with curiosity instead of accusations. We dig into the real fears ballet parents have about speaking up. Will your kid get blackballed from summer intensives or trainee programs? How do you know when to stay and when to run? Suzette and Kelsey walk through scenarios and discuss cultural and generational differences that can complicate conversations with non-native English speaking faculty. The episode covers handling abusive language from ballet instructors, including when teachers single out students in class. We talk about how bystander parents can step in even when it's not their kid being targeted, how to teach young dancers to set boundaries around body comments, and why building supportive lobby culture matters. Suzette and Kelsey also address why anxious, perfectionistic ballet students struggle to speak up and how therapy can help dancers build their mental toolkit before problems escalate. If you've ever felt paralyzed about confronting a problem at your ballet studio or pre-professional program, this episode gives you the questions to ask and the confidence to advocate for your child's physical and mental health.

You avoid the relationship by avoiding the person and never getting involved in the first place. You must have eyes to see and be willing to accept the truth for what it is. Brokenness leads to blindiness, which has caused millions of people to end up in relationships with people who are no good for them. There are always signs and red flags that people miss or choose to ignore, only to find themselves in abusive relationships that they're afraid to be in and are afraid to leave! Stop allowing your unhealed hearts and minds to lead you into relationships with people you shouldn't of ever allowed into your life! Watch for the signs and red flags and follow your intuition because when you feel something is wrong, it is! As I always say "love isn't blind, people are." People have gotten used to the cliche, "love is blind" not knowing it's just another one of societies wrong views from people who aren't of mindsets to know better. See beyond your eyes, feelings, wants, emotions, and desires. It just may save your life!Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/relationships-and-relatable-life-chronicles--4126439/support.

In the episode of the Consumer Finance Monitor podcast we are releasing today, we examine what may be the most consequential development in New York consumer protection law in nearly half a century: the enactment of the New York State Fair Business Practices Act (the FAIR Act). Signed into law in December 2025 and taking effect on February 17, 2026, the FAIR Act represents the first comprehensive overhaul of New York General Business Law § 349 in almost 50 years. Long focused primarily on deceptive acts and practices, Section 349 has now been expanded to expressly prohibit unfair and abusive business practices as well—bringing New York law far closer to the federal UDAAP framework under the Consumer Financial Protection Act. To explore what changed, why it matters, and how the law will be enforced in practice, Alan Kaplinsky (founder and former leader of the Consumer Financial Services Group at Ballard Spahr LLP and now Senior Counsel and host of Consumer Finance Monitor) is joined by two senior officials from the New York Attorney General's Bureau of Consumer Frauds and Protection who were directly involved in shaping and implementing the statute: · Jane Azia, Chief of the Bureau of Consumer Frauds and Protection · Alec Webley, Assistant Attorney General and one of the attorneys who helped shepherd the FAIR Act through the legislative process What followed was a wide-ranging and unusually candid discussion of the statute's origins, scope, enforcement implications, and practical lessons for businesses operating in, or affecting, New York. From Deception to Unfairness and Abusiveness For decades, New York's consumer protection regime lagged behind most other states and federal regulators by focusing almost exclusively on deception. As Jane Azia explained, deception alone often fails to capture conduct that is plainly harmful to consumers, particularly where disclosures technically exist but are obscured, consumers are subjected to high-pressure tactics, or businesses exploit significant informational or power asymmetries. The FAIR Act closes those gaps by expressly prohibiting: · Unfair practices, modeled closely on the FTC's longstanding unfairness framework · Abusive practices, drawing heavily on more than a decade of CFPB enforcement experience Importantly, while the statute borrows from federal concepts of unfairness and abusiveness, New York is not bound to follow future CFPB reinterpretations. As Alec Webley emphasized, the legislature carefully chose its language, expressly incorporating only certain federal elements (such as the FTC's "substantial injury" concept) while deliberately declining to tether New York law to future federal regulatory shifts. Broader Scope Than Federal Law One of the most significant differences between the FAIR Act and federal consumer protection law is scope. Jane Azia pointed out that unlike the federal Consumer Financial Protection Act, which applies primarily to financial services, the FAIR Act applies to all business activity occurring in, or affecting consumers in, New York. That means unfair or abusive conduct by non-financial businesses now squarely falls within the Attorney General's enforcement authority. The statute also avoids many of the preemption constraints that can limit state enforcement against national banks under federal law, because it is a law of general application rather than a banking regulation. No Rulemaking—But Clear Signals The FAIR Act does not grant the Attorney General rulemaking authority, and the AG's office does not currently plan to issue formal regulations or written guidance. Instead, businesses should expect the meaning of "unfair" and "abusive" to be fleshed out through enforcement actions, settlements, and existing federal precedent. That said, the Attorney General has already identified categories of conduct likely to draw scrutiny, including: · Steering borrowers into unnecessarily costly repayment options · High-pressure sales tactics · Obscured or misleading pricing · Exploitation of consumers with limited English proficiency · Misleading marketing in health care, auto sales, and emerging financial products Several examples discussed on the podcast, including enforcement actions involving e-cigarettes, earned wage access products, and savings account practices, illustrate how the AG's office has already been applying unfairness and abusiveness theories under existing authority, and how the FAIR Act now allows those claims to be brought directly under state law. Remedies and Enforcement Tools The FAIR Act does not dramatically alter the remedies available to the Attorney General, but it reinforces a powerful enforcement arsenal, including: · Injunctive relief · Restitution · Civil penalties · Disgorgement · Expedited "special proceedings" that can allow the AG to move quickly in court to halt unlawful conduct As a reminder, recent amendments to Article 22-a of the general business law also significantly increased civil penalties for violations of section 349 occurring during disasters or abnormal market disruptions, an issue businesses should not overlook. Extraterritorial Reach and Coordination with Other Regulators The discussion also addresses a recurring compliance question: when New York law applies beyond New York's borders. In general, the statute applies where conduct occurs in New York or where New York consumers are harmed. It can also apply to out-of-state consumers harmed by New York-based businesses. By contrast, purely out-of-state conduct with no meaningful New York nexus typically falls outside the statute's reach. The episode also explores how the Attorney General coordinates with: · Other state attorneys general in multi-state investigations, · The New York Department of Financial Services, · The New York City Department of Consumer and Worker Protection, and · Federal agencies such as the FTC. Even as federal consumer protection enforcement ebbs and flows, the states, and New York in particular, remain active and increasingly influential. Practical Takeaways for Businesses A central theme of the discussion was that the FAIR Act is not a reason to relax compliance efforts—quite the opposite. As Alec Webley noted, statutes like this create an opportunity for companies and their counsel to step back, reassess business practices, and ask hard questions: · Are consumers complaining about this practice? · Is it genuinely necessary to the business? · Does it obscure costs or risks? · Would the company be comfortable seeing it described on the front page of a major newspaper? Practices that may have survived under a narrow deception standard could now pose real enforcement risk under broader unfairness and abusiveness principles. Looking Ahead Both guests emphasize that the FAIR Act was drafted with care and restraint, and that early enforcement actions are likely to fall squarely within the statute's text and intent. At the same time, emerging technologies, particularly digital marketing, fine-print disclosures on mobile devices, and the use of AI, are clearly on the Attorney General's radar. The bottom line is clear: the FAIR Act marks a fundamental shift in New York consumer protection law. With its February 17, 2026 effective date now here, businesses operating in or affecting New York should be taking this development seriously by reviewing practices, strengthening compliance frameworks, and preparing for a more expansive and assertive enforcement environment. We will continue to track developments under the FAIR Act and report on key enforcement actions and interpretations as they unfold. Consumer Finance Monitor is hosted by Alan Kaplinsky, Senior Counsel at Ballard Spahr, and the founder and former chair of the firm's Consumer Financial Services Group. We encourage listeners to subscribe to the podcast on their preferred platform for weekly insights into developments in the consumer finance industry.
Have you ever thought you finally met the right one—only to discover, painfully, that everything he said was a lie? In this powerful and deeply personal episode, Leslie Vernick sits down with media expert and speaker Beverly Hallberg to unpack her harrowing journey through a deceptive and destructive marriage. From whirlwind courtship to abuse behind closed doors, Beverly opens up about the spiritual confusion, grief, and courage it took to get free—and the God who never left her. This is an episode every woman navigating confusing relationship dynamics needs to hear. Key Takeaways “He Wasn't Who He Said He Was”: The Power of Deception Beverly shares how her abuser cloaked himself in faith, family values, and kindness—appearing to be the ideal match. But soon after the wedding, the mask dropped. She explains how yellow flags were hidden in grief, charm, and shared spiritual language, making discernment incredibly difficult. → You're not foolish if you didn't see it. These relationships are built on intentional deceit. When Abuse is Emotional, Mental, and Spiritual From subtle sabotage to explosive rage and spiritual manipulation, Beverly's marriage wasn't just disappointing—it was destructive. She bravely recounts the patterns of control, harm, and gaslighting that unraveled her emotionally and physically. → Abuse is not just about bruises. It's about patterns that diminish, devalue, and destroy. God Doesn't Value Marriage Over Safety Wrestling with Scripture and shame, Beverly found clarity in truth: God cares more about the people in the marriage than preserving the institution at all costs. Biblical wisdom and wise counsel helped her see that staying would harm not just her—but enable his sin. → God does not call you to stay in harm's way to keep a vow someone else already broke. Healing Isn't Linear—but It's Real Beverly shares her long road back to emotional and spiritual wholeness. From losing her in-laws to enduring an ectopic pregnancy alone, her healing came through community, Scripture, and reclaiming her voice. → You can heal. It takes time, safe people, and honesty—but freedom is possible. To the Woman Who Feels Stuck: You Are Not Alone Speaking directly to women who may not have the resources or support Beverly did, she offers wisdom on safety planning, building a support system, and why even one safe parent can make all the difference for children. → The first step is to tell someone. God will meet you as you take that step. Personal Invitation If Beverly's story hit close to home, you might be wondering, How am I supposed to be OK, when he's not? That's a critical question, and you don't have to answer it alone. Leslie is offering a free, faith-based webinar designed to give you the clarity and confidence to take your next right step. During this free training, we will cover: How to clearly define your problem, the other person's problem (at least in your opinion), and the problem in your relationship. The difference between love that's motivated by fear and love that's motivated by freedom—and what it takes to make the switch. How to listen beneath the surface of nice words, flattery, and love bombing to discern what's true so that you can make good choices going forward. How to build your own internal strength so that his weaknesses—or yours—don't get the best of you. ...and much more. Reserve your spot now: https://leslievernick.com/problem Beloved, God sees. He sees your tears, your confusion, your exhaustion—and He cares. You are not alone, and you are not beyond hope. No matter how deep the pain or how tangled the web, God is a God of truth, healing, and freedom. You don't have to figure it all out today. Just take the next brave step. You were made for more than survival. You were made to live in peace, truth, and safety. Watch Mike Winger's message on abuse and divorce: View Here

She's stated that she wants me to be the one to baptize her. Are there any reasons that we shouldn't go through with this? - Anonymous • Last week you referred to delivering a sermon written by AI as “acting”. Is this the same as delivering a pre-written manuscript?

This didn't feel right for me to partake in as a Christian. Do I have any recourse? What are your thoughts? - Anonymous SEGMENT 4 • Knowing that we need to be wary of applying guilt-by-association, at what point should a church stop promoting a teacher due to their association with someone that's theologically problematic? - Jennifer ___ Thanks for listening!

In this Friday Coaching Corner, Sybil responds to a protective mother navigating ongoing post-separation abuse involving her highly gifted, autistic teenager. The abusive co-parent has repeatedly pulled the child into adult financial and legal conflicts, framing the protective parent as the cause of manufactured crises and positioning himself as the victim and rescuer.Over time, the child has become increasingly aligned with the abusive parent — repeating legal language, expressing contempt toward court-ordered support, rejecting care from the protective parent, and threatening legal consequences when demands aren't met. This episode explores what happens when a child is placed in an impossible loyalty bind and the emotional toll this takes on both the child and the protective parent.Questions Answered in This EpisodeHow do you respond when your child has been weaponized against you and genuinely believes the abusive parent's narrative?How can a protective parent hold boundaries when their child uses legal threats, contempt, or adult language learned from the abusive parent?What does staying connected look like when your child is rejecting you to remain loyal to the abusive parent?How can protective parents grieve the loss of connection without collapsing, over-explaining, or losing themselves in the process?Want your question featured in a future Friday Coaching Corner?

A counsellor of a support group reveals why some men choose to tolerate physical, emotional and psychological abuse in their marriages. Synopsis: On Wednesdays, The Straits Times takes a hard look at Singapore's social issues of the day with guests. Spousal abuse cases in Singapore rose significantly in 2024 to 2,136, up from 2,008 such cases in 2023, according to the Ministry of Social and Family Development (MSF). While official figures did not give a breakdown of these cases by gender, the defamation case of Johnny Depp against his ex-wife Amber Heard and post-Covid-19 awareness have encouraged more men to step forward, said a counsellor who runs a specialised support group for battered husbands. To find out more in this episode, assistant podcast editor Lynda Hong speaks with Josiah Yeo, a counsellor at Lutheran Community Care Services (LCCS), who started its support group for abused husbands in 2022. Mr Yeo details how one of the abused husbands in the support group was beaten with golf clubs and made to slap himself in public.

Don't forget to grab your free scripture journal at PrayingChristianWomen.com/journal today!When spiritual authority crosses into control, how do you recognize it—and why is it so hard to name while you're inside it? In this special edition of the Praying Christian Women podcast, Jaime and Alana take a break from the usual Prayer Through the Psalms series to share a deeply personal interview from their true crime podcast series, Christian True-Crime Junkies. Coinciding with Spiritual Abuse Awareness Month, this is Part 1 of a 3-part conversation exploring Alana's harrowing experience in a Christian cult during her college years—a story she is sharing in depth for the first time. What began as a faith community rooted in belonging and purpose slowly revealed patterns of manipulation, control, and spiritual abuse. Through Alana's firsthand account, we unpack how high-control religious environments form, why intelligent and faith-seeking young adults are especially vulnerable, and how Scripture, obedience, and "submission" can be weaponized to silence questions and override personal discernment. Whether you have experienced spiritual abuse yourself or simply want to protect your loved ones, we hope you'll join us as we learn to distinguish between a healthy church and a high-control group, ultimately pointing us back to the safety and freedom found in a genuine relationship with Jesus. NOTE: Part 2 of this conversation will air on Tuesday, 1/20 on the Christian True-Crime Junkies! podcast, with Part 3 to follow!

An app that allows millions of users to create sexualised images of children has brought the dangers of Artificial Intelligence into sharp focus – and shown how ineffective governments are in implementing safeguards on digital behemoths.A new feature of Elon's Musk's AI tool, Grok – available to users of his X platform – allows people to create intimate photographs of people without their consent and create child sex abuse imagery.Women have reported that their photos had been taken from the internet and digitally altered by strangers on X, to “nudify” them so they appeared naked or in a bikini.As Irish Times political correspondent Ellen Coyne explains there are few consequences for those who use the AI model to create illegal sexual images of women and children.Meanwhile Musk initially responded to the avalanche of international criticism of his AI tool with crying face emojis but since then the platform has reportedly moved to restrict access to the feature.Presented by Bernice Harrison.

Spiritual abuse doesn't begin with cruelty—it begins when authority drifts out from under Christ. In “When Pastors Become Abusive,” Pastor DeWayne L. Wright offers a sobering, Scripture-anchored look at pastoral leadership, exposing how misuse of power harms both leaders and congregations. Drawing from 1 Peter 4:12–19, 1 Peter 5:1–4, and Ephesians 4:11–13, Pastor Wright explains why God gives pastors to the church, how suffering and accountability shape healthy leadership, and where abuse takes root when shepherds abandon humility, character, and submission to Christ. This message brings clarity, correction, and hope—calling pastors to lead with integrity and believers to honor spiritual authority with discernment, prayer, and Biblical wisdom.

Eliana and Maverick Beallis were six years old. On December 2nd, 2025, a court decided their father—a man their mother accused of strangling her—would get joint custody. On December 3rd, they were found dead alongside their mother from gunshot wounds. No arrest. No named suspect. No cause of death released. The national media wants this to be simple. Abusive husband kills family. System fails. But the court records tell a story about two parents with documented violence—and those kids were caught in the middle of all of it. Their mother Charity was arrested in 2013 for allegedly pointing a gun at a man. Her own father once went to court claiming she was dangerous to her firstborn child. In 2020, both parents slashed their teenage son's tires while holding infant twins—and Charity caught the aggravated assault charge. Their father Randall pled guilty to domestic battery in 2025. His previous wife also died from a gunshot wound in 2012, ruled a suicide. According to a police report, Charity's father allegedly told investigators that Charity confessed to that killing. Two adults with violent histories fighting over two children. Now three of them are dead and one walks free. Law enforcement says there's no ongoing threat to the public. The autopsy results are pending. Someone knows what happened inside that house. The only people who deserved none of this were Eliana and Maverick. This is their story. #ElianaAndMaverick #CharityBeallis #BonanzaArkansas #TrueCrime #RandallBeallis #ArkansasTwins #TrueCrimeNews #JusticeForTheChildren #CustodyBattle #FamilyAnnihilation Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The endless monologue of some emotionally abusive people is a tactic that keeps you silent and submissive. It's designed to wear you down until you finally give in.
How do you deal with a husband's abusive anger? This behavior should never be accepted as normal. It's time to apply some tough love and separate until he changes his ways.Donate to Moody Radio: http://moodyradio.org/donateto/lovelanguageminuteSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode of Healthy Mind Healthy Life, host Sayan sits down with Jacquie Elliott to break down why holiday stress and family dynamics can crank up your inner critic. Fast. Jacquie reframes “self criticism” as abusive brain chatter. A deeper pattern of emotional self-abuse that fuels low self-worth, comparison and people-pleasing. You'll learn her ABCs framework to interrupt the spiral, rebuild self-respect and practice self-love in a practical way through awareness, belief and challenge. About the Guest: Jacquie Elliott is a certified spiritual and relationship coach, seasoned radio host and motivational speaker. She's the author of The Silent Bully: A Journey from Abusive Brain Chatter to Self-Love, and teaches simple tools to shift from “tornado head” into boundaries, presence and a healthier inner relationship. Key Takeaways: Name the inner critic for what it is. Jacquie calls it “abusive brain chatter”. Not just negative thoughts but a pattern that bullies, belittles and gaslights you, especially during holiday pressure and family triggers. Use the ABCs framework in real time. A is Aware: notice the script and write it down. B is Belief: reconnect to a loving inner source through journaling, meditation, prayer or a grounding ritual. C is Challenge: replace old core beliefs like “I'm not enough” with one sentence that is 10% kinder and more true. Watch for “Tornado Head”. That spiral where one mistake becomes a whole identity story. The reset is to return “home” to the present moment and get heart centered before you problem solve. Make self love practical. Start with 2 to 3 minutes of meditation. Journal both voices. List your top values and check alignment. Take small actions that build self respect and reduce shame. Build momentum with micro wins. Random acts of kindness and gratitude can create a dopamine lift that supports consistency, confidence and healthier boundaries. Holiday reminder. You do not need perfect mindset. You need a tool you will actually use when things get loud, tense or triggering.

Some emotionally abusive people do heal. And once they do, they might feel the relationship will be great from that point on. What they don't consider is that the victim of their abusive behavior is only starting their healing process.
Ron returns from a nightmare Thanksgiving in Massachusetts and unleashes raw truth: his cousin's husband is a controlling, belittling, financially failing bully who's destroying his family. From vodka hoarding to shaming his wife in front of the kids, Opie and Ron expose the toxic reality one in three families quietly endure. If you've ever had to bite your tongue around a family monster, this brutally honest rant will hit hard—and might just set you free. Hit play before the holidays force another smile.
Disclaimer: We are not professionals. This podcast is opinioned based and from life experience. This is for entertainment purposes only. Opinions helped by our guests may not reflect our own. But we love a good conversation.In this episode of the 2 Be Better Podcast, we unpack a raw email from a mom asking, “At what point do I put my son first?” We walk through her full story, from being a young woman ignoring red flags and leaving home for an abusive relationship, to getting pregnant, surviving narcissistic and controlling behavior, and finally trying to co-parent with a toxic ex. We talk about trauma, your nervous system, epigenetics, how pregnancy stress impacts your baby, and why honoring the old version of yourself matters while still owning every choice you made. You'll hear us break down nervous system overload, abuse cycles, emotional manipulation, and why self-respect and standards are non-negotiable if you want a healthy relationship and a stable home for your kids.We also dive deep into high-conflict co-parenting: abusive step-parents, a stepmom demanding to be called “mom,” kids witnessing yelling, name-calling and physical outbursts, and what to do when your child no longer wants to be at the other parent's house. We talk about 50/50 custody, when to go back to court, setting hard boundaries, supervised visits, and how to protect your child without using them as a weapon. If you're dealing with a toxic co-parent, abusive ex, unstable step-parent, ADHD kids struggling in chaos, or you're a mom or dad trying to figure out when your child's safety and mental health must come before “keeping the peace,” this conversation will hit home and give you clear, practical language and perspective to move forward.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/2-be-better--5828421/support.
