About this listen

On this week’s Bestie Advice Segment, we hold space for one of the most distressing submissions we’ve received. An anonymous listener shares her story of an affair that didn’t end when the truth came out, but instead evolved into manipulation, intimidation, and abuse.
In this episode, we talk about coercive control, trauma bonds, shame, and the dangerous grey areas where fear keeps people stuck. This is a raw conversation about survival, safety, and what it really looks like when someone feels trapped between past mistakes and present danger. If you’ve ever felt silenced by fear, guilt, or the belief that you’re “too far gone” to ask for help… this episode is for you. Tune in for the full scope!
