Laura and co-host Lisa Bilyeu are joined by two powerhouse
guests: Dr. Nadine Macaluso, trauma bond expert and ex-wife of the real Wolf of Wall Street, and Brian Buckmire, criminal defense trial attorney and ABC Legal Contributor.
Laura, Lisa and Nadine unpack the insidious dynamics of love
bombing, grooming, and power imbalance and manipulation straight out of the abuser’s playbook. They explore cognitive dissonance, and the shame and sexual coercion many women endure in silence. Nadine shares deeply personal insights from her own experience, having walked in Cassie Ventura’s shoes, offering a survivor-informed lens that cuts through the noise.
Then, in a critical courtroom breakdown, of the first week of trial Laura, Lisa and Brian dive into the legal complexities of the Diddy trial—from the potential impact of juror demographics on perceptions of consent
to discussions about Diddy’s deviant sexual psychopathology.
Laura brings her decades of expertise into sharp
focus—connecting coercive control patterns to the real-world courtroom to help us all understand the warning signs that are often missed, help listeners understand, identify and avoid the traps abuser and spotlight how lawyers spin the narrative and blur the lines when defending abusive men.
This episode is essential listening. This isn’t just about one man. It’s about a pattern, a power structure, and the need for real, survivor-centered justice reform.
