Cult leaders, parents, spouses, ex-partners…narcissistic abuse can affect any of us. But what are some of the signs we’re under a narcissist’s spell? Today’s guest is Vanessa Reiser, a psychotherapist, author & narcissistic abuse survivor. She recently stopped by to chat with Dawn about how to detect if you're in an abusive relationship, why cults and narcissistic abuse go hand-in-hand, and why she thinks it's time to move past the term "narcissist".   Pre-Order Vanessa's book, Narcissistic Abuse: A Therapist's Guide to Identifying, Escaping, and Healing from Toxic and Manipulative People on Amazon here.
