Scott and Heather share an intimate, courageous conversation about telling the unfiltered truth in the aftermath of their most recent cycle of calculated betrayal by narcissists that they trusted and loved: truth to self, truth to others, and truth about the ones who inflicted the lies. Unpacking painful lessons learned along the way, this episode exposes what self-censoring and keeping secrets costs survivors, and how telling the truth leads to freedom from shame, accountability, and the return of self-worth and the ability to express authentic masculinity and femininity. As Scott and Heather go deep, listeners learn how speaking up breaks the cycle, disarms manipulation, and repels toxicity.  Truth amplified heals!
