iWasErased: Reflections
They said it couldn’t happen.
That no loving parent could be erased from their child’s life. But here you are. And you’re not alone.
iWasErased: Reflections is a short-form solo podcast for alienated and left-behind parents living the nightmare no one believes—until it happens to them.
Hosted by advocate and lived-experience voice David Shubert, each 15–17-minute episode is a reflection, a rant, or a wake-up call. No scripts. No fluff. Just real talk about parental alienation, family court failure, and the emotional wreckage left behind.
If you’re a targeted parent, a supporter, or someone finally waking up to what’s really going on, this space is for you.
Not therapy. Not legal advice. Just truth. Pain. And hard-earned hope.
New episodes drop weekly. Also available on YouTube, Substack, LinkedIn, and the iWasErased community pages.
Because silence protects the alienator. And we’re done being silent.

Episode 3 - Who are the Alienators?
In this episode, I take an honest look at a question many of us ask but rarely get answered — who are the alienators?
I talk about what I’ve seen over the years: how they present themselves, how they manipulate, and why they’re often believed. Alienators don’t always look like villains. Sometimes they appear calm, composed, even caring — until you see what happens behind closed doors.
I’m not here to diagnose or label; I’m here to expose the patterns that tear families apart and to help other parents recognize them sooner. Because understanding who the alienators are is the first step toward stopping the cycle — and protecting what’s left of our connection with our children.
