Coercive control has been a hot topic in recent years, with some jurisdictions even making it illegal. Lawmakers recognize the serious risks victims face - even without victims being subjected to frequent bouts of physical violence.
But what exactly is coercive control? How does it take hold in a relationship, and why do victims often accept it without realizing the danger? Are they willing participants, or is something far more insidious at play?
In this episode of Unmasking the Abuser, we break down the definition of coercive control and reveal the subtle, deceptive tactics used to introduce it early in a relationship - making it seem harmless and even agreeable to the romantic Target.
This is a must-listen episode, leading into Part 2, where we’ll walk you through a revealing questionnaire to help determine whether you or someone you love is trapped in one of these toxic, high-risk relationships.
This is the podcast series that does so much more than entertain. It's designed to help you develop your manipulation superpower. Simply and effectively, you'll learn how to spot any attempts to unfairly persuade, influence or indoctrinate you. You'll be able to identify it accurately and early. In a world of propaganda and disinformation, you can know more and do more. Have a listen.
