  • Charlotte's Story: Narcissistic Abuse in the Workplace (Plus IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT)
    Send us a textOn today’s episode, I share important news about the future of this podcast before welcoming Charlotte, an emotional and narcissistic abuse survivor. Please note I only refer to Charlotte by her first name to protect her privacy. Charlotte and I have a lot in common because she too experienced narcissistic abuse in the workplace. As you’ll hear throughout our conversation, almost every detail she described was eerily similar to my own Rolling Stone workplace story. The creepy boss ingratiating himself into her life, the lack of support from her colleagues, and the company’s refusal to hold this man accountable for his actions. I am so proud of Charlotte for sharing her story on the podcast because it’s one of the first baby steps she’s been able to take toward healing. I hope her experiences will inspire other emotional abuse survivors to come forward. Recharge with David KoA powerful 5-part limited series dropping during Mental Health Awareness MonthListen on: Apple Podcasts SpotifySupport the showFollow me on Instagram, Threads, and BlueSkyListen to the podcast on YouTubeSign up for my SubstackYou can also reach me through my professional websiteYou can also drop me a line at [email protected] or DM me on Instagram.

  • America Re-Elected Its Narcissistic Abuser, With Lianne Torres
    Send us a textI am thrilled to welcome Lianne Torres to “Emotional Abuse Is Real” today. Lianne is a self-love coach, speaker, domestic violence survivor and advocate – and she is the host of the “Watch Us Thrive” podcast. Just like I do with “Emotional Abuse Is Real,” Lianne uses her podcast to not only share her own story of abuse but to raise awareness about toxic relationships, overcoming trauma, and healing. Like me, Lianne is devastated that Donald Trump was elected to a second presidential term. The way she sees it, the American people have returned to their narcissistic, abusive partner. We spend most of the episode venting our frustration and voicing our sadness because, even though it’s been a month since Kamala Harris lost the election, many of us continue to deal with a lot of raw emotions. And we're here to tell you that we can still be upset. This was a cathartic conversation for both of us, and I can’t wait for you to hear it.

  • Navigating Post-Election Triggers, With Narcissistic Abuse Survivor Skye Polk
    Send us a textAlthough I initially planned to take this week off, I needed to record some episodes that directly addressed the U.S. presidential election, so here we are.For the next few podcast episodes, I'm chatting with women who, like me, are deeply affected by the election results, and still navigating through their sadness. I especially wanted to speak with women who, like me, are narcissistic abuse survivors directly triggered by Donald Trump’s win. On today’s episode, I welcome Skye Polk. Skye is a Dallas-Fort Worth-based content creator focusing on raising awareness about chronic illness and mental health. Several years ago, Skye was diagnosed with a blood circulation disorder called postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome, or POTS. She’s also spent the past six years in narcissistic abuse recovery, having grown up with a narcissistic father. Skye’s mission is to use her voice to help support others dealing with experiences similar to hers, so I’m thrilled that you all will hear our conversation.Connect with Skye:InstagramThreadsBlueSkyTikTokLearn more about POTSRecharge with David KoA powerful 5-part limited series dropping during Mental Health Awareness MonthListen on: Apple Podcasts SpotifySupport the showFollow me on Instagram, Threads, and BlueSkyListen to the podcast on YouTubeSign up for my SubstackYou can also reach me through my professional websiteYou can also drop me a line at [email protected] or DM me on Instagram.

A global citizen with a passion for life, Catherine recently ended a year-and-a-half-long abusive relationship. Although Catherine has lived in Sweden for four years, we recorded our interview while she was back in the U.S., focusing on her healing journey. Despite being out of her toxic relationship for only a month, Catherine offered a huge amount of nuanced perspective for her fellow survivors. Connect with Catherine:LinkedInThreadsInstagramInstagram passion project, "Dear N(ex), It's Me"Recovery From Narcissistic Abuse, Gaslighting, Codependency, and Complex PTSD, by Linda HillRelated episodes dealing with emotional abuse and the brain:Episode 40, "What's the Connection Between Emotional Abuse and the Brain?
