When Accountability Turns Into Blame (Episode 7)
from Surviving the Spin · host Kathryn Gaweda
In this episode of Surviving The Spin, we explore what happens when simple accountability triggers immediate deflection. Through two real-life stories — one involving a high-conflict divorce and another involving co-parenting dynamics — we unpack how manipulation can show up as exaggeration, blame-shifting, and narrative control. This week’s Red Flag of the Week focuses on what to watch for when someone refuses responsibility and turns the spotlight back on you. Awareness is the first step to stepping out of the spin.
