“So I used to LOVE this podcast, raved about it to all my mates. However something went wrong somehow. As a family psychologist, I used to like that you would allow the guest to share their experience of pain, heartbreak, how they have healed if they have and let listeners take from it what they will. Episode 41, was a good way of allowing her to share her experience of pain, DV, with appropriate inquisitive curiosity and reacting when need. In your earlier episodes you Listened, actively, to understand the story which you don’t do anymore. Now you listen to psychoanalyse however, you appear to not have been trained for this. Episode 108 was very hard to listen to from your questions and his responses. That man is a perpetrator of Domestic abuse, if you are challenging him to think deeper then perhaps challenge the narcissism in him calling her out her name. Episode 96, about 10 mins in you have red flags of Abuse, him picking her up three days into the relationship, it’s called love bombing. If you are going to ask questions about DV then please have some awareness on the subject. The latest episode 115 was extremely hard to listen to and while it’s good to ask questions on the “why” sometimes people just do things and there is no why, at least not in their relationship, maybe a life event. And while it’s good for people to understand the “why” to their behaviour, this podcast is CERTAINLY not the place for you to unpack it because a, it’s a break up “stories” podcast, not a healing or mental health introspective podcast and b, you are not trained to handle trauma. You bullied that girl, Very close to Jeremy Kyle, with you badgering her, trying to get her to think about her why, that was the reason why she was there, she probably asked to tell her story. Maybe the least from her story is people are vulnerable to grooming when they have low self esteem and coming out of a break up. The guy in the episode made it seem like it was her decision to continue the relationship and it’s her choice when he is the one in a marriage. That is called grooming. In you attempting to get her to think you could have re traumatised let and made her feel worse and you are not there to check in with her. Allow guests to share their stories and as a host you should actively listen and have appropriate curiosity do not try too hard to make people reflect, this podcast is not a safe space for that.”
