  • In this episode, we delve into the harrowing story of Jodi, whose life took a dark turn when she entered a relationship with a friend. Thinking she knew him well after five years of acquaintance, she never imagined the horror that awaited her.


    Discussions in this Episode:

    Bloody Noses and TornadoesMeet a listener, JodiJohn moves in, turns out to be a nightmareJodi gets hooked on methPolice frequently visit her homeJohn ignores protective ordersDrains Jodi's life in 10 monthsSons sense troubleJodi struggles to break freeTherapy and support help her regain strengthJodi starts to reclaim her life and find happiness again

    Initially charming, he quickly turned into her worst nightmare. An audacious narcissist, he manipulated her with ease, saying all the right things to gain her trust. After letting him move into her home upon his release from jail, things spiraled out of control. He got her hooked on methamphetamine, and soon police became frequent visitors to her once peaceful home.


    Despite protective orders, he refused to leave, leaving Jodi trapped in a living nightmare. In just 10 months, he managed to drain her of life, both mentally and financially. Even her sons sensed something was deeply wrong, though shielded from the worst of his abuse.


    Overcoming manipulation, addiction, and the constant threat of danger, she finally managed to escape. But the battle wasn't over; it was just beginning. The process of healing and rebuilding her life was slow and painful. Therapy and support became her lifeline as she worked to regain her strength and sense of self. It is a journey filled with setbacks and challenges, but gradually, Jodi starts to reclaim her life.
