A decades-long research project has learned that the quality of our lives depends on the quality of our relationships. And what a tragedy that so many of us do not have the tools to create deep, intimate, connected relationships. We have a tendency to hide our true selves behind half-truths, behind saying we're 'fine' when we're not, behind being so amenable and accommodating that we never rock the boat. And yet, in seeking to keep things low-maintenance and easy, we are being dishonest with ourselves and with our partner about who we really are, what we really desire and prefer, and we show up instead as a shallow shell of who we really are. Until we truly learn how to be honest with ourselves and with our partners about who we are and what we really want, we will never be able to create the equal partnerships so many of us crave.

Send a textIn this episode of The Remarkable People Podcast, host David Pasqualone interviews author and entrepreneur Sandra Lena Silverman, a co-founder of a large mortgage business and mother of two, about her life story and the lessons she wants listeners to apply—especially learning to love themselves. Sandra shares being adopted as an infant, childhood molestation that later manifested as a severe fear of elevators, and a lifelong pattern of perfectionism and overachieving. She recounts a difficult marriage marked by gaslighting, manipulation, and emotional abuse from a narcissistic husband, including constant body-shaming that contributed to her pursuit of numerous cosmetic procedures and surgeries. Sandra describes how the abuse escalated after pregnancy, the onset of infidelity, multiple separations (including in 2006, 2016, and 2023), and her decision to end the cycle with a final separation in 2024 and ongoing divorce proceedings. She explains how prolonged stress affected her health—high cortisol, inflammation, shaking—and how those symptoms improved after leaving. Sandra discusses warning signs such as love bombing, excuses, and blame-shifting, emphasizes the need for strong boundaries, and updates listeners on her current work: her book deal for three books (including the republished From Bullshit to Botox and a forthcoming second book focused on her marriage and narcissism), her show Parties Over, and her social media presence where people can connect with her.01:50 What You'll Learn Today: Loving Yourself02:56 Adopted in Maryland: Family, Identity, and Early Questions04:58 Childhood Trauma Revealed: Molestation, Memory, and Finding Her Birth Mother06:21 The Trauma Shows Up Later: Claustrophobia & Fear of Elevators08:18 Perfectionism and Overachieving to Earn Love09:37 Meeting Her Ex: The First Body-Shaming Comment10:49 Building a Business + The First Surgery (and the Put-Downs Continue)14:04 Pregnancy, Cruelty, and the Moment She Saw the “Monster”16:13 Affairs, Separations, and the Crossroads She Didn't Leave19:05 Hard-Won Warning: Without Boundaries, It Only Gets Worse20:11 Breaking the Cycle: Final Separation & Choosing Yourself22:13 Healing After Abuse: Epiphanies, Boundaries, and Health Recovery25:02 Kids, Co-Parenting, and Protecting Them from Dysfunction26:21 Red Flags of Narcissism: Love Bombing, Gaslighting, and Blame-Shifting29:40 Life After Leaving: Books, Podcast, New Opportunities, and Independence32:50 Beauty vs. Self-Worth: Elective Surgery, Internal Work, and Doing It for You35:00 Faith, Divorce, and Where to Find Sandra + Final Wrap-Up37:25 Podcast Closing Message: Feedback, Sharing, and Living the MissionREMARKABLE SPECIAL OFFER: Save Big on Your Console Vault In-Vehicle Safe.

Gaslighting isn't just a buzzword — it's a real communication pattern that quietly distorts reality and leaves you questioning yourself. In this episode, I break down the three must-know signs you're being gaslit, the subtle conversation shifts that give it away, and exactly what to say in the moment to stay grounded and in control. I also flip the lens inward and share how to recognize if you're unintentionally gaslighting someone else — and how to stop it before it becomes a pattern.

Making critical decisions in high-conflict divorce when you can barely trust your own judgment? This interview is essential viewing. After experiencing gaslighting, manipulation, and betrayal in a toxic relationship, many people struggle to trust their instincts—especially when the stakes are highest. Should you push for a custody evaluation? Is your ex really alienating the kids, or are you being paranoid? How do you read the Guardian ad Litem? What if you're wrong about everything? Strategic intuition expert Jock Brocas—who used intuitive intelligence to stay alive in military operations and high-risk security situations—shares practical techniques for cutting through fear and confusion to make sound decisions when everything is on the line. This conversation goes far beyond typical "trust your gut" advice. You'll learn pattern recognition techniques, box breathing for high-stakes court situations, and how to distinguish between fear-based panic and genuine intuitive warning signs. These are military-grade tools adapted for family court survival. Perfect for anyone facing custody evaluations, court hearings, mediation with a difficult ex, or any high-conflict situation where you need clarity but fear is clouding your judgment. WHAT YOU'LL LEARN:✓ Strategic intuitive intelligence: Combining your experiences, training, and natural intuition✓ Why fear gives you the wrong signals exactly when you need accuracy most✓ Pattern recognition for identifying your ex's manipulation tactics✓ How to tell if it's genuine intuition or just anxiety/ego✓ Box breathing: Military technique for staying calm in court or evaluations✓ The power of "the pause" before responding to provocations✓ Simple practices that train your mind to recognize signals vs. noise✓ Why going silent is your superpower in high-conflict situations ABOUT JOCK BROCAS:Jock Brocas brings a unique combination of military intelligence, high-risk security experience, and spiritual research to the question of how we make critical decisions under pressure. With 25+ years as a professional medium and extensive work in executive protection and undercover operations, Jock now works with lawyers, scientists, and professionals on strategic intuition. He's completing a master's in psychology (PhD starting October) and founded Help4Lawyer to support legal professionals in high-stakes cases. Author of "Powers of the Sixth Sense."

If you feel like you're not a priority in your relationship, this episode gets straight into why it happens and what to do next. You'll hear a real listener situation where “two hours of gaming” turns into four, plans get brushed off, and feelings get minimized with phrases like “it's not a big deal.” We break down what follow through actually communicates, how dismissing your reality can become gaslighting, and how to set a boundary without begging, chasing, or exploding.You'll also learn how to repair after conflict, rebuild trust when someone avoids accountability, and create a relationship culture where connection is the standard. We go deep on intimacy versus sex, why many couples confuse the two, what emotional intimacy looks like in daily life, and how to bring back desire without pressure, resentment, or “chore” energy. Expect clear language, practical communication tools, and a direct framework for getting respect, consistency, and real closeness back on track.Disclaimer: We are not professionals.

Shop all things home at Wayfair.com Go to rushhourwithdave.com for tickets to my upcoming Asheville NC, Stamford CT and Boston shows! Our top story: the so-called "Epstein files" are reportedly only 2% released, raising serious questions about transparency, missing evidence, and whether the public is being deliberately misled. If the full scope of the investigation into Jeffrey Epstein has barely seen daylight, what exactly is being protected — and who benefits from the delay? Then, Olympic controversy explodes. The fallout continues after a Ukrainian athlete speaks out following a controversial disqualification, while separate allegations emerge involving Canadian athletes accused of cheating. We break down how the International Olympic Committee is responding — and whether the Games are losing credibility in real time. Back home, scrutiny intensifies around U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement as new reporting raises questions about enforcement practices and internal oversight. Plus, we examine allegations swirling around Kristi Noem and claims of potential financial misconduct — what's substantiated, what's speculation, and what could come next. Gaslighting, global scandals, and government accountability — it's all ahead on this morning's episode.
Kliq This is back with another 11Soft hangout that starts with Big Kev vs. the concept of "checkout time" and immediately spirals into hotel paranoia, road life rules, and the eternal question of whether your toothbrush has ever been through some things. From there, Kev and Sean pivot to the halftime show discourse, why certain "talking points" become white noise, and Kev's oddly wholesome reasoning for loving physics (because if he's leaving Earth, he's driving the spaceship himself). Then it gets heavier. Kev and Sean get into the Bondi hearing, "gaslighting" vs. lying, and the frustration of watching important information stay buried forever. After that, the show swings back into pure Kliq This chaos, including smoked old fashioneds, Vince McMahon as a scotch guy, travel stories that feel like a movie, WWE allegedly blocking WrestleMania watch parties in Vegas, and a Mount Ashmore draft for the best action movie stars. Plus, an all-timer prank story featuring Owen, Davey Boy, Lex Luger, and cops who were definitely "in on it." #KliqThis #KevinNash #SeanOliver #11Soft #WWE #WrestleMania #BadBunny #ProWrestling #TheKliq #ActionMovies #MountAshmore #PodcastHeat BlueChew-Get 10% off your first month of BlueChew Gold with code NASH at BlueChew.com StopBox- Get firearm security redesigned and save 10% off @StopBoxUSA with code NASH10 at https://www.stopboxusa.com/NASH10 #stopboxpod 00:00 Kliq This #189: BAD BUNNY 00:56 Checkout is 11a 07:17 BAD BUNNY HALFTIME SHOW 13:07 Gaslighting 15:29 Smoked Old Fashioned 17:25 VKM liked Scotch 24:27 Did VKM ever ask you to move? 25:31 Working the door at a club 28:09 Picking and choosing roles 30:10 Bondi's performance at the Senate hearing 34:46 BREAK JCW LUNACY 35:16 "As a former hotel manager i will say check out is usually at 11 " 37:05 "Hopefully you guys clip the part of Big Sexy talking about how Gunther should be booked." 37:35 "I am convinced that High Kev is the best Kev!" 38:56 "Only on this show would they talk about cleaning skid marks off a toilet" 41:56 "My favorite part of the day: Listening to Kev talk about precious metals as I push my morning poop out so the fart behind it can escape" 42:50 "I'm begging to see you on Takers podcast" 47:03 BREAK STOPBOX 51:08 Opening Beck/AJ Lee promo for match 55:47 Punk vs Balor set for Elim Chamber 01:01:48 HAS TRIPLE H GONE STALE? 01:18:31 WWE Blocking Wrestlemania Watch Parties in Las Vegas 01:24:44 FOR BEST ACTION MOVIE ACTORS 01:26:44 BREAK BLUECHEW 01:28:30 Pranking Lex Luger 01:34:44 Celtic Workouts 01:35:13 Trump's Tariff on Canada/ the Gordie Howe bridge
Ever wonder why narcissists feel impossible to leave—even when you know something's wrong? This week, filmmakers Ali & Stefanie Schmahl reveal how their docu-fiction hybrid "I Love You My Narcissist" portrays what no other film has: the internal experience of being slowly trapped by someone you love. PODCAST EXTRA EXCLUSIVE SEGMENT Find the exclusive second segment and weekly newsletter here. MORE ABOUT THE PODCAST EXTRA INTERVIEW
In this episode, we break down what subtle gaslighting looks like in covert narcissistic relationships and why it's so hard to recognize. You'll learn how emotional manipulation can sound calm, reasonable, and even compassionate—while quietly eroding your self-trust. Not all gaslighting is loud. Sometimes it's delivered gently. Sometimes it contains just enough truth to make you hesitate. Instead of “That never happened,” it's “That's not exactly how it happened.” Instead of “You're crazy,” it's “You know you can be a bit sensitive sometimes.” And over time, those small reframes begin to destabilize your confidence in your own memory and perception. We'll explore real-life examples of subtle emotional abuse, including half-truths, tone shifts, memory rewrites, and caring-sounding responses that leave you comforting the very person who dismissed your experience. If you've ever walked away from a conversation feeling confused, guilty, or unsure of yourself—even though nothing dramatic happened—this episode will help you understand why. You'll also learn practical ways to rebuild self-trust, anchor yourself when subtle gaslighting happens, and reclaim your internal authority without needing to prove your reality to someone else. If you've been asking yourself, “Is this really gaslighting?” or “Why do I feel so confused when nothing big happened?”—this episode is for you.

SPIRITUAL GASLIGHTING
The DOJ "Epstein Files" release was billed as transparency, but the hearing footage tells a different story. We break down Thomas Massie's clash with AG Pam Bondi, the alleged mishandling of victim names, and the bigger question: why does government always default to redactions, deflection, and "look over here" politics? Then we zoom out to the incentive problem: when power is centralized, the rich and connected get shields you will never have. We also cover the viral moments from the hearing, including the "reclaiming my time" chaos, the blame-shifting across administrations, and the absolute hall-of-fame distraction tactic: "The Dow is over 50,000 right now." If your friends are furious about Epstein, COVID, wars, or corruption, we give you the clean libertarian through-line: reduce the power, reduce the coverups.

If your friends are furious about Epstein, COVID, wars, or corruption, we give you the clean libertarian through-line: reduce the power, reduce the coverups.

How do you survive—and eventually recognize—the BPD cycle of abuse, especially when you are already exhausted, confused, and questioning yourself.In this episode, I break down the cycle as it actually unfolds in real life: The intense honeymoon phase, the sudden emotional whiplash, the accusations and character attacks, the breakups and reconciliations, and the long stretch of chaos that keeps you hooked through intermittent relief.I talk about why this dynamic is so hard to recognize while you're inside it, why your nervous system becomes hypervigilant, why you can't sleep, why you're constantly scanning for tone, mood shifts, and explosions, and why none of this means you're weak, codependent, or “too sensitive.”If you've ever felt like your body knew something was wrong long before your mind could accept it—this episode is for you.Support the show*Please Note: there is a long intro that explains my services.

In this episode of Narcissist Apocalypse, we break down how gaslighting turns inward, becoming self-gaslighting that dismantles a person's sense of reality and self-worth. We explore how survivors go from trusting their instincts to doubting their emotions, questioning their memories, minimizing harm, and assuming fault automatically — even after the abusive dynamic ends.This conversation connects gaslighting to identity erosion, self-blame, memory doubt, survival mode, and people-pleasing — and explains why self-gaslighting isn't weakness, but a learned survival response.If you've ever wondered how you lost trust in yourself, this episode puts language to that process — and shows where clarity begins.Click if you want to be a guest on our survivor story podcast, please send us an email at narcissistapocalypse@pm.meClick on the title to read about Self Gaslighting & Why You Doubt Your RealitySign up to our Domestic Violence Newsletter Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

When you awaken to the truth of your toxic family, it is not always easy to stand your ground. The most emotionally honest child in a toxic family will be scapegoated. They will use fear, obligation and guilt to win every argument. Awakening from the fog of a toxic family system is akin to ripping your own skin off. Toxic family systems are plagued by denial and a malignant lack of self awareness. This presents real challenges for the adult child who begins to awaken from dysfunctional family dynamics. In this episode, you will learn: ✨The signs of toxic behaviors in family systems. ✨How feeling rejected by family members causes a sense of self abandonment. ✨Ways in which to learn how to stand up for yourself when you start to awaken and you want out of the toxic family system. In this episode, Lisa A. Romano gets honest about the real life challenges of the truthtellers and scapegoats who want out of dysfunctional family systems. Your Healing Starts Within Lisa's 12 Week Breakthrough Program is a neuroscience-based roadmap to help you gently rewire subconscious patterns, regulate your nervous system, and return home to your authentic self.
With over 83 percent public support, the SAVE Act should be a layup. So why are Democrats attacking it as "Jim Crow 2.0," and why is Republican leadership in the Senate stalling behind procedural excuses? This episode breaks down what the SAVE America Act actually does, why voter ID has overwhelming bipartisan support, and how the "suppression" narrative relies on racial gaslighting. From the myth of nationalized elections to the Senate's zombie filibuster, Professor Nick Giordano provides a blunt analysis of why election integrity has become a controversial fight in Washington. What You'll Learn What the SAVE Act really changes and why proof of citizenship matters for secure elections Why claims that voter ID is racist collapse under real-world scrutiny and polling data Black and Latino communities How voter roll maintenance works everywhere else in government and why elections are treated differently Why the zombie filibuster allows Senate leadership to block popular legislation without taking a public stand What the GOP's hesitation reveals about political courage and the upcoming 2026 midterms.
n this powerful and deeply validating episode of A Heartfelt Chat with Dr. Foojan, Dr. Foojan Zaine sits down with Agatha Peters, Nigerian-American psychotherapist, founder of Beautiful Sunshine Therapy, and author of Trapped in Their Script: Reclaim Your Life from Narcissistic Parents and Cultural Expectations. This conversation shines a light on the hidden emotional abuse experienced by adult children of narcissistic parents—especially within collectivist, immigrant, and African cultures, where family loyalty is often prioritized over individual mental health and emotional safety.

Together, Dr. Foojan and Agatha explore how survivors can begin healing without completely abandoning their culture, identity, or family ties.

Send us a textBetrayal trauma can be uniquely disorienting because it not only breaks trust—it can disrupt your sense of reality and self-trust. In this episode, we explore betrayal trauma as a nervous system injury that often leads to hypervigilance, rumination, shutdown, and relationship fear. Using simple polyvagal-informed language, we look at why the body moves from connection to surveillance after betrayal and how healing often centres on truth, boundaries, and rebuilding trust in yourself. The episode ends with a short “Truth Anchor” practice to stabilise the present moment.In this episode, you'll learnWhat betrayal trauma is and why dependency makes it more traumaticHow betrayal can create “reality doubt” and self-questioningPolyvagal-informed patterns: mobilised protection vs shutdown after trust breaksCommon impacts on body, mind, and relationships (non-diagnostic)What helps: clarity, boundaries as safety structures, and rebuilding self-trustA short grounding practice to anchor reality and support regulationGrounding practice (2–3 minutes): “Truth Anchor”Name 3 present-moment factsUse thumb-to-fingertip pressure as a physical anchorChoose one truth sentence: “My feelings make sense,” “I'm allowed to protect myself,” etc.Name one small next stepRelated Episode:S9 E83 Ambiguous Grief with Stephanie SarazinCheck the website for the free resources offered for both those affected by trauma and those supporting them.What's next: Single-Incident Trauma: When ‘Before' and ‘After' SplitSupport the show

When you're in a high-conflict divorce, the behaviors often feel indistinguishable. Gaslighting. Manipulation. Control. Chaos. Emotional whiplash. It's why so many people fixate on one question: Is my spouse a narcissist? In this episode, I'm joined by licensed psychotherapist and narcissistic abuse expert Chelsey Brooke Cole to explore a deeper truth—when the impact on you feels the same, does the label actually matter? We unpack what narcissistic abuse truly is, how it overlaps with other forms of emotional and psychological abuse, and why abusers and narcissists often behave in nearly identical ways during divorce. Especially when they're losing control. Especially when the legal process becomes another tool for domination, punishment, and destabilization. This conversation is not about diagnosing your ex. It's about understanding patterns so you can stop internalizing blame, stop doubting your reality, and stop negotiating from fear. We talk about the internal experience of these dynamics—the fog, the shame, the fragmentation, the nervous system overload—and how those symptoms affect your ability to think clearly, make decisions, and advocate for yourself and your children. Most importantly, we focus on what actually helps. How to protect yourself emotionally and strategically during a high-conflict divorce. How to anticipate predictable escalations. How to step out of reactivity and into steadiness. And how to begin rebuilding your sense of identity, self-worth, and agency after prolonged psychological control. If you're divorcing someone who feels impossible, unpredictable, or emotionally dangerous, this episode offers clarity, validation, and a path forward rooted in reality—not labels. Chelsey Brooke Cole is a licensed psychotherapist, certified partner trauma therapist, bestselling author of If Only I'd Known!, and a nationally recognized expert in narcissistic abuse and complex trauma. She has been featured in USA Today, Psychology Today, HuffPost, WKRN News 2, and FOX 26 Houston, and supports thousands of survivors through her clinical work, education, and trauma-informed programs. This episode is for anyone navigating a high-conflict divorce who needs to understand what's happening, why it's so destabilizing, and how to move forward without losing themselves in the process.

Crystal is done being gaslit by chatbots, by government agencies, by doctors and a system designed to erase and silence human beings who refuse to be used as disposable human data mines for the enrichment of a few rich dorks.
Ryan Reynolds email to Colleen Hoover was polite gaslightingAt first glance it looks like a message of supportBut Jack breaks down how this letter uses charm to erase complexity and reframe the storyIt opens with exaggerated praise and self-deprecating humourBut quickly something shiftsRyan Reynolds does not ask Colleen how she feelsHe tells her what the film meansWho made it greatAnd who ruined itHe names Baldoni once but links him to contamination not criticismHe praises Blake and the post team but not Colleen's original workAnd by the end he is offering her an escape from the chaos he just reminded her ofThis is not supportIt is narrative enforcementAnd it works by sounding generous“Gaslighting doesn't always deny realitySometimes it redefines it”—Want more from Never A Truer WordBecome a member on YouTube or Spotify and get early access, exclusive episodes and moreYouTube Membership: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgBFGUA67ZunxIbe51LnqGg/joinSpotify: https://creators.spotify.com/pod/show/neveratruerword/subscribe

Are Christians forbidden from engaging in politics, or is Scripture being selectively weaponized to keep believers silent? In this LIVE FREE special reaction episode, Pastor Josh responds to Rhett & Link's viral commentary on Christianity and politics, breaking down the biblical errors, cultural assumptions, and spiritual forces underneath the argument that Christians should “stay out of power.” This episode draws a clear line between faithful doubt vs. deliberate deception, and explains why political passivity is not a virtue, but a strategy the Bible warns us about. You'll learn: - Why Jesus rejecting Satan's offer was not a rejection of political authority, but of acquiring it the wrong way - The difference between refugees from doubt and apostles of unbelief (Jude 22–23) - Why “My kingdom is not of this world” is commonly misunderstood, and what Jesus actually meant - How secularism turns politics into a substitute religion (and why the state becomes god) - Why voting is not a sacrament, but a moral decision between available options - What it means to be the salt of the earth and how Christians are called to slow decay, not retreat - Why culture didn't become political, the government became theological - How Scripture views power, dominion, and Christ as King of Kings over every sphere
