Chad talks with Maxine about her abusive marriage to a possible psychopath. It's a story of the enlightened conman, disappearing acts, physical abuse, and a flawed court system. Plus they discuss, mirroring, gaslighting, rage disguised as passion, pedestals, the silent treatment, boundary testing, self doubt, codependency, cognitive dissonance, fear of abandonment, hero sex workers, hoovers, court advice, enabling family members, gut feelings, sex addiction, bonding over trauma, animal abuse, parallel parenting, and much more. - The sound on this episode changes dramatically as it's over two different calls and a few different devices. Our apologies. We're working on the issues. *** Trigger Warning - Graphic Physical Abuse & Animal Cruelty Is Discussed ***
