S6 E2 - "Listen to your gut" - Justice for Willow (Part 2)

CW/TW - DISTRESSING CONTENT - Displays of grandiosity, narcissism or sociopathy, suicidal ideation, domestic violence, murder of a child

Mariah Lee Gardner escaped, barely clinging to life, from a brutal attack on her and her children at the hands of her ex-husband, Stephen Clare. Today, Mariah will continue to recall the events that led to the tragedy that occurred April 10, 2023. We dive in a little more on the links to Narcissistic Personality Disorder and domestic violence, and pose the question of whether or not you always listen to your gut. As for Stephen Clare - the crimes he committed are all pieces of a pure living nightmare, one that had all the signs, albeit difficult to see. Narcissists are very thorough with carrying through their plan if it is something that will make them look good. We urge you all to recognize the signs of Narcissistic Abuse from family members and even friends, whether you have fallen victim to it or not. You never know who's life you may save, and as always... see something, say something.
