Why Narcissists Always Blame You (and the AI tool helping you fight back)

In this episode of the Restoring Resilience Podcast, I sit down with Anne Wintemute, the co-founder and CEO of AimeeSays, to discuss a groundbreaking tool designed specifically for survivors of domestic and narcissistic abuse. Unlike standard AI models, AimeeSays is a trauma-informed system that understands the complexities of coercive control, gaslighting, and the systemic hurdles survivors face. In This Episode, We Discuss: 1 in 3 women experience domestic violence—far more common than most people realize. Why systems meant to help can misread trauma and re-traumatize survivors. How non–trauma-informed tools can give harmful advice in abusive dynamics. How trauma-informed AI can help survivors process, document, and be heard—without shutting down emotionally. Why "just leave" isn't that simple—and how survivors' attempts to reach out often go unseen   About the Guest: Anne Wintemute is the Co-Founder and CEO of Aimee Says, the AI assistant for victims and survivors of relationship abuse. She is a fierce champion for the rights of survivors and children, and systems that hold perpetrators accountable. Prior to working with survivors, Anne founded and directed an elementary school that became a model for micro schools across the United States. In her spare time, she enjoys urban homesteading with her family in Denver, Colorado.
