Rerelease | Jenna Lee & The Controlling Firefighter

In this re-release episode of Narcissist Apocalypse, Brandon talks with Jenna Lee about her relationship with a firefighter who built trust quickly and used it just as fast. What began with connection, vulnerability, and future plans slowly shifted into control, pressure, destabilization, and confusion. Jenna Lee shares how mirroring, intensity, cognitive dissonance, and emotional overwhelm made it hard to see what was happening in real time—and how small moments began to change the direction of the relationship long before it ended. It's a a story about trust, fear, obligation, guilt, shame, mirroring, future faking, love bombing, isolation, parentification, boundaries, trusting your gut, loyalty, infidelity, confusion, fate talk, perfectionism, empathy, destabilization, cognitive dissonance, and minimization.  Click if you want to be a guest on our survivor story podcast, please send us an email at [email protected] Click on the title to read about Coercive Control as Care: Signs & Patterns Sign up to our Domestic Violence Newsletter  Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
