Podcasts about abusive

Sometimes becoming unstoppable begins with realizing you have more control over your life than you thought. Merrill Isherwood shares how her journey from professional ballet and a battle with bulimia to an abusive marriage, single parenthood, corporate struggles, and life coaching taught her the importance of self-ownership. She and Michael explore trauma recovery, toxic relationships, self-esteem, emotional support, and the courage to ask for help. Merrill also explains why coaching is not about giving people answers, but helping them discover their own strength and make conscious choices about the life they want to live. Highlights: 03:11 - Merrill shares how ballet shaped her early life and career. 11:00 - Pressure around weight led to bulimia and leaving professional ballet. 20:49 - Toxic relationships taught Merrill the importance of setting boundaries. 31:09 - A life coaching course changed how Merrill viewed control and personal responsibility. 43:28 - Trauma recovery became a focus of Merrill's coaching work. 59:16 - Undivided attention can help parents build stronger connections with their children. . About the Guest: I am still here, and I am most grateful for that privilege.  I have been fortunate to live out most young girls' dreams of being a professional ballet dancer and an air hostess / flight attendant. However, for many years was terribly unhappy and felt life was not worth living.... Abusive relationships were the order of the day, both at work and in my personal life, and I unfortunately developed a severe eating disorder which taunted me for 12 years. Atop that were several sexual assaults, exorcism, home robberies, burnout, financial scarcity, manipulation and more. I overcame being completely broken emotionally; physically, experienced grief from the loss of multiple loved ones and friends; was a single parent (for over 20 years with no support), lost most of our material possessions, and loads more. Often questioning, “Why me?”, I read one day what we should be asking ourselves is “Why not me?”  Why should I think, or assume I should be immune to difficulties in life?  This was when I realised the power of my mind.  I overcame the trauma of the above through mind control, determination, reflection, introspection, and willpower. That was a changing point in my life.  Perhaps I went through these experiences so I could help others. In 2019 I studied to become a certified life coach, intent on helping others. Subsequently, I created a course on healing oneself emotionally, using the principles of life coaching. I discovered once my emotions were better aligned, the physical 'tiredness', and lethargy, decreased, and for the first time, (in what felt like forever), I decided life might be worth living after all. My desire is to teach others to do the same. Realising how much valuable time I had wasted, hiding from the world, feeling pathetic, and unworthy, I set out to make a difference, spreading love and support. At the lowest of the low, God sent heavenly friends to support me through the dark days. My mission is to strengthen, and empower others by teaching them the tools, strategies, and skills they need to succeed, and to be able to live the life they choose. I encourage them not to waste their lives being unhappy, it really IS worth putting in the work, healing, and being able to actually LIVE a productive AND fulfilling life!

Why do abusive people suddenly break up with you, discard you, or move on as if you never mattered? In this video, Lee Hammock explains how a toxic or narcissistic person may leave when they are losing control, being held accountable, facing consequences, or seeking new validation. The discard can be used to punish you, create confusion, provoke you into chasing them, or make them feel powerful again. Their decision to leave does not erase the abuse or prove you were not enough. Learn how to stop chasing closure from someone who may use the breakup itself as another form of control.Book a Coaching Session: [⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://link.me/mentalhealness⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠]

For help controlling your anger, visit angersecrets.com.Most people who become emotionally abusive don't wake up intending to hurt the person they love. But unmanaged anger can quietly become emotional abuse without you ever recognising the pattern. This episode explains how it happens, and how to stop it before it destroys your relationship.Many people think emotional abuse only applies to extreme relationships. In reality, it often develops slowly through repeated anger, criticism, intimidation, stonewalling, controlling behaviour, or making a partner feel unsafe. These behaviours frequently grow out of anger problems rather than deliberate cruelty, but the damage they cause is no less real.In this episode, Alastair explains what emotional abuse actually is, why intent doesn't erase its impact and how fear, shame, and emotional insecurity quietly develop inside relationships. You'll learn why emotionally abusive behaviour often begins with anger that goes unchecked, how to recognise the warning signs in yourself, and why taking responsibility is the turning point that allows real change to begin.Alastair also shares the five-step process he teaches clients to break these destructive patterns: developing honest self-awareness, accepting responsibility without excuses, understanding the emotional impact on your partner and children, identifying your anger triggers, and committing to lasting behavioural change. Through the story of one client who rebuilt safety in his home, you'll see that change is possible—even after years of damaging behaviour.The Anger Secrets Podcast helps men and women master anger management, improve relationships, rebuild trust after anger, and create calmer, happier families. Hosted by anger specialist Alastair Duhs, creator of The Complete Anger Management System.

What happens when an abusive or toxic person realizes you are leaving for good? In this live discussion, Lee Hammock talks about common reactions such as love bombing, guilt trips, promises to change, anger, blame shifting, smear campaigns, threats, and attempts to regain control. Not every person will react in the same way, but changes in behavior and escalation should be taken seriously. If you are planning to leave and feel unsafe, consider creating a safety plan, documenting concerning behavior where safe to do so, and reaching out to trusted local resources. You deserve safety, support, and the freedom to leave without being punished for it.Book a Coaching Session: [⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://link.me/mentalhealness⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠]

The Last Days Transformation of Humanity: Paul's Warning in 2 Timothy 3 | KIB 548 Kingdom Intelligence Briefing DESCRIPTION THE LAST DAYS TRANSFORMATION OF HUMANITY Kingdom Intelligence Briefing — Episode 548 What happens to humanity when God is removed from the center, biblical restraint is rejected, and SELF takes the throne? In 2 Timothy 3:1–9, the Apostle Paul gives one of Scripture's most sobering descriptions of humanity in the last days. Paul warns that "times of difficulty" will come. But what makes those times dangerous? PEOPLE. The dangerous character of the times emerges from the increasingly dangerous character of humanity. In KIB 548, Dr. Michael Lake and Mary Lou Lake examine Paul's warning and trace a downward progression beginning with one foundational disorder: ·      "People will be lovers of self." — 2 Timothy 3:2 ·      Once SELF becomes supreme, everything else begins to shift. ·      Truth becomes: "What is true for me?" ·      Morality becomes: "What feels right to me?" ·      Identity becomes: "What do I believe myself to be?" ·      Religion becomes: "What can God do for me?" ·      Worship becomes: "How does this make me feel?" ·      Humanity gradually replaces God as its own reference point. Dr. Lake describes this as an "anthropological inversion"—God, others, and self are replaced by self, personal desires, and God only when He is useful. The result is precisely the progression Paul describes: ·      Lovers of self. ·      Lovers of money. ·      Proud. ·      Arrogant. ·      Abusive. ·      Ungrateful. ·      Unholy. ·      Heartless. ·      Unappeasable. ·      Slanderous. ·      Without self-control. ·      Brutal. ·      Not loving good. ·      Treacherous. ·      Reckless. ·      Swollen with conceit. ·      Lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God. And then comes perhaps the most disturbing warning of all: "Having the appearance of godliness, but denying its power." — 2 Timothy 3:5 Paul is not merely describing secular wickedness. He warns that rebellion can eventually CLOTHE ITSELF IN RELIGIOUS LANGUAGE. ·      Christian vocabulary without biblical obedience. ·      Worship without holiness. ·      Church attendance without discipleship. ·      Spiritual experiences without discernment. ·      Grace without repentance. ·      Faith without faithfulness. ·      Religious identity without transformation. This is RELIGION WITHOUT POWER. The episode also examines the significance of Jannes and Jambres in 2 Timothy 3:8, spiritual deception, counterfeit supernatural manifestations, the loss of self-control, increasing brutality, slander and accusation, the weakening of moral restraint, and the spiritual warfare believers may increasingly encounter in the days ahead. Paul's reference to Jannes and Jambres connects to the possibility of intensified occult counterfeits as the last days progress. Yet KIB 548 does not end with darkness. As humanity moves increasingly toward the exaltation of self, God is preparing a people who move in the opposite direction. The world becomes increasingly self-centered. | The remnant becomes increasingly Christ-centered. The world rejects holiness. | The remnant pursues holiness. The world abandons truth. | The remnant stands upon the Word. The world loses self-control. | The Holy Spirit produces self-control within God's people. The world conforms increasingly to rebellion. | The remnant is conformed increasingly to the image of Christ. The coming contrast may become unmistakable: ·      THIS IS LIFE WITHOUT GOD. ·      THIS IS LIFE WITH GOD. NOW CHOOSE. Dr. Lake's closing exhortation is urgent: when believers see 2 Timothy 3:1–9 unfolding around them, it is time to take God seriously and determine to follow biblical truth even when the surrounding culture abandons it. SPIRITUAL WARFARE IN THE DAYS AHEAD This episode also warns believers that the spiritual battle may become increasingly visible. ·      The answer is not fear. ·      The answer is preparation. ·      Learn the Word. ·      Develop discernment. ·      Understand your authority in Christ. ·      Practice obedience now. ·      Pursue holiness now. ·      Learn biblical spiritual warfare now. Do not wait until the battle becomes intense to discover what Scripture teaches about standing against the kingdom of darkness. As the episode emphasizes, believers were "birthed in the battlefield." Learning obedience to Christ now prepares God's people for increasing spiritual conflict later. KEY SCRIPTURES DISCUSSED ·      2 Timothy 3:1–9 ·      Matthew 24:3–8 ·      Matthew 8:28 ·      Genesis 3:5 ·      Genesis 6:5 ·      Isaiah 5:20 ·      Revelation 12:10 ·      Galatians 5:22–23 ·      Daniel 11:32 The core passage throughout the teaching is 2 Timothy 3:1–9, which the episode uses to contrast Paul's description of dangerous last-days humanity with the character God desires to develop within the remnant.

But the believer's assignment is not to become consumed with darkness. It is to become increasingly conformed to Jesus Christ. If the culture abandons truth—we stand for truth. If the culture rejects holiness—we pursue holiness. If the culture enthrones self—we enthrone Christ. If the world becomes increasingly governed by the flesh—we become increasingly governed by the Holy Spirit. Now is the time to GO DEEP IN THE WORD and GO DEEP IN GOD.

Why do abusive people hurt you on purpose, then blame you for the pain they caused? In this video, Lee Hammock explains how control, punishment, shame, resentment, emotional immaturity, and the need to feel powerful can drive intentional cruelty in toxic relationships. Learn why an abuser may target your insecurities, dismiss your feelings, provoke reactions, or hurt you right when you need support. Their behavior is not proof that you are unlovable or that you caused the abuse.

Abusive relationships have cycles. Things get better, then they escalate, and then they get bad. This crazy-making pattern adds to the confusion and self-doubt that is part of emotional, verbal, physical, spiritual, and other types of abuse. The more you know about what is going on, the more you can be empowered to take care of yourself. The abuser has power over you by getting you to question your perceptions. Understanding the cycles allows you to make sense of the roller coaster and maintain your strong self as an abuse survivor.   Part of the abusive relationship cycle is pulling the rug out. Watch this video to identify this strategy used to throw you off balance.   #abusiverelationships #emotionalabuse #emotionalabusesurvivor #crazymaking #abusesurvivors    Website: https://www.changemyrelationship.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ChangeMyRelationship YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@changemyrelationship Watch this video on YouTube: https://youtu.be/ud9w5C9N0_E

SEASON 14 EP 32- Getting Over Abusive People by Jeremy Lopez www.identitynetwork.net 

Let's talk about emotional neglect. Can we really categorize this as “abuse?” I say we can, and in today's episode, I'm going to tell you why. In this episode, you'll learn:Five specific ways emotional neglect shows up in a marriageWhy silence can be more controlling than yellingWhat your nervous system does when someone ignores youThe question every neglected wife asks herself over and over again, and why she needs to stop asking that questionGet Today's Free Resource:

I met my husband after my family rejected and abandoned me because of an unwanted pregnancy. He took me in, cared for me, and showed me the love I desperately needed. Believing our love was genuine, I entered into a blood covenant with him, promising that neither of us would ever leave the other. But since then, he has become abusive, turning me into a punching bag. - Wife laments.

For the past three years, we've known him only as a ‘high-profile businessman', accused and then convicted of raping a woman in his home. Until last week, when the court order suppressing his name was lifted and he was revealed to be Ralph Carr, one of Australian music's heavyweights, a man who helped bring us the biggest pop stars of the 90s. Names like Kate Ceberano, Vanessa Amorosi and Tina Arena – his ex-wife. Guardian Australia can reveal that dozens of other women who worked for Ralph Carr Management accused him of verbally abusive and intimidating behaviour dating back to the 1990s. Some accuse him of sexual harassment. He denies the claims and maintains his innocence regarding his rape conviction. Reged Ahmad speaks to culture editor Steph Harmon about her exclusive report

One of the most controversial teachings in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is the idea that paying tithing can determine your worthiness—and even your eligibility for temple ordinances and the highest degree of heaven.Over the years on Mormon News Roundup, I've called out this "pay-to-play" system again and again. In this compilation, I've gathered some of my strongest anti-tithing rants into one episode.From temple recommend interviews to the pressure placed on struggling families, this video examines why many former members see mandatory tithing as one of the most harmful aspects of Mormonism.If you've ever wondered why so many people object to LDS tithing, this is the episode.

Her Abusive Fiancé Broke Her Wrist—By Midnight, The Mafia Boss Was At His Door

As my friends and I discussed John 11, I was struck by verses 47 and 48. These couple sentences are so appropo for those who have faced abuse in any setting.The term "Crazy-Making" is often used to describe this infurtiating experience.Jesus has just raised his friend, Lazarus from the dead . . .And yet, this is what the chief priests and Pharisees said.

In this rerelease episode of Narcissist Apocalypse, Joanne shares the pain of growing up with a gaslighting and abusive mother while still desperately wanting her love. Joanne's mother made kindness feel transactional, blamed Joanne for her emotions and health, denied and rewrote abusive incidents, involved others in their conflicts, and repeatedly made Joanne's accomplishments, grief, and trauma about herself. As Joanne got older, the physical abuse, intimidation, guilt, and manipulation became harder to ignore, but recognizing the abuse did not erase the love she still felt for her mother. Recorded across two conversations four years apart, Joanne's story also explores what happened after she created distance and established firm boundaries. Low contact gave Joanne space to build a healthier life, and over time, she and her mother slowly began repairing their relationship. After her mother's death, Joanne found herself grieving both the mother she lost and the relationship they were only beginning to rebuild. Her story shows how complicated it can be to love, miss, and mourn a parent who also caused deep harm. It's a story of intergenerational trauma, transactional love, gaslighting, physical abuse, sexual abuse, intimidation, gaslighting, grief, manipulation, low contact, death of a parent, toxic and narcissistic mothers, emotional abuse, fear, obligation, family scapegoating, smear campaigns, blame shifting, denial and minimization, fake apologies, enmeshment, family isolation, setting boundaries with family, narcissistic abuse, and breaking generational cycles.  Content Warning: This episode contains discussions of physical abuse and a graphic description of childhood sexual abuse.  If you are in search of therapy from professionals dedicated to dealing with TRAUMA - Narcissist Apocalypse recommends REBOUND THERAPY and they can be reached at  hellorebound.com/na 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.

You don't love them!Your brain is lying to you about love. What you're feeling isn't love — it's a trauma bond. And until you understand the difference, you'll keep going back to the same people who destroy you.In this video, I break down the psychology behind why you can't seem to move on from a narcissist or abusive ex, and the neurological reality that explains everything.
