This week, I was joined by Lisa Johnson, co-founder of Been There, Got Out — a domestic violence advocate and high-conflict divorce strategist who survived 20 years of narcissistic abuse.

Lisa’s story goes far beyond heartbreak. She exposes how coercive control operates behind closed doors, how manipulation hides in plain sight, and what it takes to rebuild your life after escaping a narcissist.

From self-representation in court to changing Connecticut law, Lisa’s courage has helped thousands of survivors take back their power.

If you’ve ever doubted your strength or wondered how to start over after abuse, this episode will remind you that healing is not only possible, it’s your birthright.

If you or someone you know is experiencing emotional abuse, call the National Domestic Violence Hotline at 1-800-799-7233 or visit thehotline.org for confidential support.
