The Lovebombed

He didn’t raise a fist.

But he raised doubt.

In this debut episode, host Stella Pierson unpacks how narcissistic abuse starts—not with violence, but with adoration. What feels like a fairytale is actually a setup: a psychological crime scene carefully disguised as love.

Stella takes listeners through her own story of lovebombing, gaslighting, financial control, and post-separation abuse—illustrating how coercive control operates in plain sight and why the justice system often fails to see it as a crime.

If you’ve ever questioned your reality, felt invisible bruises, or been told “it’s not abuse if he didn’t hit you”—this episode is for you.

Because some crimes don’t start with violence.

They start with love.
