Marty himself was abused and became an abuser. He was a narcissist through and through. When it came time to choose between this behavior or his son, he chose his son. He was desperate for help. For someone to speak up about this. But there was no one that could relate to him directly. “There was lots of help for people who had been abused. But there was none for people who had been abusive.” Marty (@peacegiverproject) is changing the waves by speaking out and showing that it is possible for a narcissist to change if they want it bad enough. 🖤🤜🏻🤛🏻🖤 Please share this episode with anyone that you think could benefit or relate to the things Marty had to share. 🖤🤜🏻🤛🏻🖤 You can listen to this episode on any major podcast platform, including Apple Podcast, Google Podcast, Spotify, iHeartRadio, Castbox, Stitcher, Podcast Addicts app and TuneIn. 🖤🤜🏻🤛🏻🖤 If you have your own story to tell, send me a DM or email (hardknockspod@gmail) or visit the website - ourhardknocks.com.

One particular day after Olivia had gotten out of the shower, she noticed her husband’s phone going off, one text after another. He had left his phone on the bathroom counter on purpose, to prove that “he wasn’t doing anything.” But this girl was proving otherwise. So Olivia responded and said she was the wife. The girl was texting Olivia back on the husband’s phone telling Olivia everything that had been going on. Olivia, once again, confronted her husband and he went into a narcissistic rage. 🖤🤜🏻🤛🏻🖤 In this episode, I chat with an anonymous guest that we’ll call “Olivia.” Olivia shares what it was like to be married to a narcissist and how she was manipulated and made to believe that she was crazy. Olivia was finally able to realize what was going on in her marriage and filed for divorce. 🖤🤜🏻🤛🏻🖤 Please share this episode with anyone that you think could benefit or relate to the things Olivia had to share. 🖤🤜🏻🤛🏻🖤 You can listen to this episode on any major podcast platform, including Apple Podcast, Google Podcast, Spotify, iHeartRadio, Castbox, Stitcher, Podcast Addicts app and TuneIn. 🖤🤜🏻🤛🏻🖤 If you have your own story to tell, send me a DM or email (hardknockspod@gmail) or visit the website - ourhardknocks.com.

It was a very emotionally abusive relationship. The girl would always control McKel and was never happy for her when anything positive happened. McKel didn’t realize how bad it was until their friends would say and point things out. McKel also didn’t know that her family did not like this girl at all. Eventually, McKel ended the relationship and began talking to her now-husband. 🖤🤜🏻🤛🏻🖤 In this episode, I chat with my friend McKel (@mckelwahlstrom) about several things. First we started out talking about how she found out that her dad was actually her step-dad. She later did find her biological father and several siblings. McKel shares about a very toxic and emotionally abusive relationship she was in. She was pregnant before marriage and once she did marry, she became a Military wife. McKel shares the struggles that come along with that. She also gets into her anxiety and lastly, a miscarriage she suffered. 🖤🤜🏻🤛🏻🖤 Please share this episode with anyone that you think could benefit or relate to the things Michelle had to share. 🖤🤜🏻🤛🏻🖤 You can listen to this episode on any major podcast platform, including Apple Podcast, Google Podcast, Spotify, iHeartRadio, Castbox, Stitcher, Podcast Addicts app and TuneIn. 🖤🤜🏻🤛🏻🖤 If you have your own story to tell, send me a DM or email (hardknockspod@gmail) or visit the website - ourhardknocks.com.

Ed would also control Melanie’s pills. Sometimes he would only let her have X amount and other times he would give her a little more to make her loosen up.. Instead of trying to help her stay clean. 🖤🤜🏻🤛🏻🖤 In this episode, I chat with Michelle (@michellestandley) about the murder of her sister. Michelle feels like the news stations did not do a good job of portraying who Melanie really was. She was more than just a drug addict. Michelle shares how they did their own detective work because the cops weren’t taking the situation too seriously until a couple months after they had reported her missing. You’ll hear the sad truth of what really happened. 🖤🤜🏻🤛🏻🖤 Please share this episode with anyone that you think could benefit or relate to the things Michelle had to share. 🖤🤜🏻🤛🏻🖤 You can listen to this episode on any major podcast platform, including Apple Podcast, Google Podcast, Spotify, iHeartRadio, Castbox, Stitcher, Podcast Addicts app and TuneIn. 🖤🤜🏻🤛🏻🖤 If you have your own story to tell, send me a DM or email (hardknockspod@gmail) or visit the website - ourhardknocks.com.

In this episode, I chat with Carolina (care-oh-lee-nuh, @carolinavee_) about how she grew up in poverty with her mother, who also suffered from OCD and bipolar disorder. Carolina always knew she was a mistake and carried a lot of blame around from things her mother would say. Carolina suffered sexual assault by her grandfather, moved out of the house when she was 16 with two garbage bags and eventually cut ties with both of her parents. 🖤🤜🏻🤛🏻🖤 Please share this episode with anyone that you think could benefit or relate to the things Carolina had to share. 🖤🤜🏻🤛🏻🖤 You can listen to this episode on any major podcast platform, including Apple Podcast, Google Podcast, Spotify, iHeartRadio, Castbox, Stitcher, Podcast Addicts app and TuneIn. 🖤🤜🏻🤛🏻🖤 If you have your own story to tell, send me a DM or email (hardknockspod@gmail) or visit the website - ourhardknocks.com.

One night, he just went for it.. “But by some miracle, it was on safety.” 🖤🤜🏻🤛🏻🖤 In this episode, I chat with Colton (@colt803) the husband of Jenessa (@jenessa.ogden - from episode 16, who admits she had an affair), to hear his side of the story. Colton also shares other things from his life, such as a nearly fatal motocross accident, being suicidal, serving a partial LDS mission and then, of course, about his marriage. 🖤🤜🏻🤛🏻🖤 Please share this episode with anyone that you think could benefit or relate to the things Colton had to share. 🖤🤜🏻🤛🏻🖤 You can listen to this episode on any major podcast platform, including Apple Podcast, Google Podcast, Spotify, iHeartRadio, Castbox, Stitcher, Podcast Addicts app and TuneIn. 🖤🤜🏻🤛🏻🖤 If you have your own story to tell, send me a DM or email (hardknockspod@gmail) or visit the website - ourhardknocks.com.

Running a podcast does cost money!

I am doing this in what little spare time I have. This is something I am super passionate about, so I don't mind doing it out of pocket. But if you wanted to help out with some costs, it would be so appreciated! Money is spent on buying and hosting this website, recording and publishing equipment, plus I give each guest a little present as a THANK YOU from all of us for sharing their heart.
