In this episode, Dr. David Hawkins sits down with counselor and author Laurel Slade-Waggoner to unpack gaslighting in everyday relationships—not only in marriage, but also in families, churches, friendships, and workplaces. Laurel shares her story, defines the “crazy cycle” (love bombing → manipulation → blow-ups → apologies → repeat), and explains why many survivors become trauma-bonded to the cycle. You’ll learn how to spot future faking, the crucial difference between mere regret and authentic repentance, and why consistency and accountability—not box-checking—signal real change. Laurel and Dr. Hawkins outline faith-safe boundary strategies (internal and external), how to exit escalating conflicts without fueling them, and practical first steps for those who feel stuck, foggy, or frozen. They also address spiritual abuse and unhelpful “stay and pray” advice, offering language to seek support wisely and rebuild a healthy inner circle. If you’re navigating narcissistic traits in a spouse, co-parent, or family member—and wondering what’s changeable and what isn’t—this conversation brings clarity, compassion, and a structured path forward. 🟥 SUBSCRIBE: https://bit.ly/3Y8Wm8S Dr. Hawkins and his team of experts offer education and professional training as well as treatment for narcissistic and emotional abuse. 🌐 WEBSITE: https://bit.ly/3SG37O3 ☎️ PHONE: (206) 219-0145 📧 EMAIL: [email protected] About The internet is inundated with hyperbole and misinformation about narcissism, leaving many people confused and hopeless.
