Science Meets Mind- Howl if You Hear Me - Episode 5- What Happens if You Fall For a Smear Campaign and How to Repair From it?

What do you do when you realize you believed the wrong story?

In this episode, we talk about the uncomfortable truth behind smear campaigns — and what it means to fall for one. Whether you were manipulated by someone you trusted or simply didn’t know better at the time, there comes a moment when the mask drops… and the guilt sinks in.

We cover:

• Why even good people fall for smear campaigns
• How to recognize you were pulled into someone else’s narrative
• What accountability actually looks like
• How to repair trust (with others and with yourself)
• And how to move forward without shame — but with clarity

This episode isn’t about blame.

It’s about bravery.

Because waking up and choosing a different path is one of the most powerful things you can do.

If you’ve ever gotten caught in the crossfire of lies, manipulation, or “concern disguised as control,” this one’s for you.
