About this listen

Faded is a narrative podcast from Tara Greathouse, author of Silence is Violence. In this raw, intimate prequel to her memoir, Tara traces the quiet collapse of her marriage—and the psychological warfare that followed.


There are no screaming matches. No courtroom scenes. Just soft manipulation, strategic silence, and the slow, invisible erasure of a woman who stopped playing along.


Told in her voice, in her words, Faded unpacks the kind of abuse that rarely leaves a mark—but always leaves a message.


This isn’t a story about drama.

It’s a story about control.

    She was light in a dark season. We had known each other before—but this was different. A quiet reconnection. A softness I didn’t have to earn and I completely sank into her.


    The entire first few months after we had filed for divorce, felt mechanical, robotic, detached. There was an eerie feel to the air. Nothing I could necessarily put my finger on just yet, but I would soon find out that my intuition was correct.



    This is where it begins.
