RATING
I listened to the first season … outside of the final episode that featured the Holistic Psychotherapist (which is not really part of the story of Sara), there is absolutely no reason this couldn’t have been done in 4-5 episodes, instead of 15. It is an interesting story, but it drags on … I’m not sure I would recommend it.
I'm annoyed that I wasted my time with this garbage. Kept waiting for something to happen and it never did. Should never have been made into a podcast
I really liked to listen to your podcast while working. It made the day go by so much quicker. However, I will not be listening any further. Your political views about gaslighting was so inappropriate to me. Just my opinion. Thanks, but no thanks.
Just finished listening to Season 1. The story of Sara. I agree with the other reviews that say this could have been done in one or two episodes. To be honest it isn't that interesting a story. Sara ended up with a bad guy but not awful. It was nice that she had such a supportive family which a lot of abuse victims don't have. The most irritating thing was the constant laughing throughout but I suspect that's because the story wasn't really much of a story.
Tiffany is doing an incredible job educating her listeners through storytelling. Her podcast helped me spotting signs of manipulation in my own circles. It is important to give survivors a voice and help others suffering from trauma.
I couldn’t stop listening and I am so glad that Sarah shared her story. I am so utterly tired of people thinking it is trashy people who end up in abusive relationships. Somehow people need to be educated on how common this abuse is, how dangerous it is and the effect it has on so many lives. I was with my abuser for almost 5 years and didn’t even realize I was a victim. The emotional, verbal, financial and sexual abuse I endured has changed my life and I continually have people make me feel stupid for staying. I called it love. I loved that man with every part of me and thought he was broken and damaged. I thought if I just loved him enough it would get better. I was not and am not stupid. I am strong and I loved with everything I had. I loved his children and prayed with them every night. I loved him and would have done anything for him. In the end it broke my heart to leave him and I cried as I drove away and I was scared to death that he would go crazy when he found out. It has been 3 years and I am steal healing. You don’t get over abuse and you are not weak. Abuse presents itself in many ways and is not always physical. Thank you for helping to raise awareness
I've binged listened to Season 1 - 3 so far and have loved every season. I love Tiffany's story telling it's so heart / gut wrenching what these people go through and what has happened to their lives and families because of individuals who have had some serious mental health issues. It just shows how badly it destroys not only the person closest to them but the ripple effect that it has on those around them. OMG.. please keep them coming. 5 Stars!
Well researched, great host. Interesting stories shared with compassion and empathy.
Enjoying this pod cast a great deal. Only up to season 5 -Nb: not sure how tiffany keeps her audience when she engages in polarising political narratives! Both your political parties have narcissistic candidates, BOTH.... and have FOR YEARS!!!! -
Love this show. Very well done and I'm finishing Amelia's episode right now - Omg, this woman, this story, I think my jaw dropped at least 4x. I hope she's doing better today and healing!
I really like this podcast. I think the stories are so interesting, and I think the guests who have shared them are all amazingly strong and resilient. However, I was a bit alarmed by S15 episodes 3&4. Don't get me wrong, I understand the betrayal of having someone you are close to lying to you and making you wonder who the fuck they are. That sucks and it is really devastating on some level. What was alarming was that these people are Mental Health professionals. Where was the empathy? They obviously don't practice Trauma Informed Care because if they did, they wouldn't have been so angry. They wouldn't have been telling on her to her boss and her parents like a 3rd grader. They would have seen that she was sick. It is pretty obvious she had some mental health problems and that she was an addict. They were super judgemental and had no empathy for her. If that is how you treat and view your "friend," someone you supposedly care about, how are you treating your clients?
Sarah got Bamboozled. In the last episode, the woman actually was intuitive enough not to engage with this guy. Kept her distance, and knew not to let this guy into her life. Sarah comes off as jealous and wants to know all the details on the other woman's affairs with this guy. Move on!
My little guilty pleasure
It’s hit or miss. Some of the stories are very interesting and full of drama, some drag on with no real content. The theme song is deplorable, i cannot get it out my head yet i haaate it and it’s driving me crazy! Lolol every cover of it …awful. The ads suck too, but i think I figured out how to skip thru most of them. Good enough podcast for falling asleep to! It def does not make me want to get out into the dating world tho lol eek, but it seems like useful information can be learned by listening to these stories
I have listened from the beginning, but this podcast has definitely went downhill. The host can't seem to get past her own ego to get her guests story across. The host has been insufferable the last few seasons and cannot wait to mention how great she is or talk about herself as if she's a saint doing the Lord's work. The last season was so disgusting. I am not sure why someone that allowed her child to be abused and murdered (knowing full well he was being abused) was allowed to have a platform to share her story. How lightly the topic was covered was a disgrace. As a parent, I could not listen and will not listen to this podcast anymore.
Do not pursue an abuser.This podcast is all about what NOT to do if you find yourself enmeshed with a potential sociopath. The first season is reckless and adding sax music does not elevate the content.
Just had to find dome place to say, the new format of having guests READ their stories SUCKS!! Sounds so stilted. I can't stand it. And I have lived this podcast, until now.
The intro and ads are 3:30 for this specific episode that I'm on. I love their theme music, it's catchy- however I get over stimulated easily and listening to it come on so often, it's way too much. The ads are long and often. I just click through half the episode. Not sure I'll continue to listen to this one but I enjoyed the stories so far.
Totally love the stories in this Podcast. It a must listen.
This podcast is phenomenal and I tell everyone about it!As a survivor of similar domestic abuse to that in season 1, I strongly disagree with the reviews that say it should have been an episode or two. These issues are so subtle and pervasive that it's incredibly difficult to know what is happening until you finally find your way out of it! And even then, it can take years or even decades to process it all and heal!Through the different seasons, this podcast beautifully illustrates and calls attention to all sorts of abuse! It has helped me to recognize abuse that has occurred and that is currently occurring in my own life, and helped mr to stand up for myself and walk away from toxic situations and people.If you are listening to this strictly for the drama, there are probably better podcasts out there for you. But if you are listening because you've suffered abuse, because you want to learn more about different types of abuse, or because you want to gain more empathy for people in bad situations, you really can't do better than Something Was Wrong!Tiffany, from myself and all the countless others who have found catharsis and healing in your work, thank you!! What you are doing is amazing and beautiful and so very needed in today's world!!
