The Cult of One : Redefining What It Means To Be In A Cult with Vanessa Reiser
[Content Warning]: Coercive control, narcissism, child abuse
Today, Jan is joined by Vanessa Reiser, LCSW, a psychotherapist and narcissistic abuse survivor specializing in narcissistic and cult abuse. They delve into the insidious nature of manipulators, exploring how grooming and mind control operate in relationships, families, and systems. Vanessa shares her personal story of manipulation and her mission to raise awareness, including her famous run across New York in a wedding dress. The conversation powerfully reframes narcissistic abuse as a form of cult-like mind control, whether it's a "cult of one" or a large group. They discuss the devastating impact on children, the failures of the family court system, and practical strategies for teaching critical thinking and resilience to protect ourselves and our loved ones from predators.
