Description
Welcome to the "Dimming The Gaslight" podcast. I'm Mac - a male survivor of Narcissistic Abuse. Week by week, I share my journey of divorcing a female narcissist, fighting for my young children, and navigating the complexity of the U.S. family court system. But it's not just my story – I want to hear from you too! If you want to be a guest on the show, please email me at DimmingTheGaslight@gmail.com for a chance to be on the show.
