Episode Details

Are you in a relationship, or are you in a "cult of one"? 🚩

In this special full-length interview, Ross Rosenberg sits down with Chris Shelton—an author, cult recovery expert, and former Scientologist who spent 25 years inside the organization. Together, they break down the terrifying similarities between cult indoctrination and narcissistic abuse.

You will discover how pathological narcissists use the exact same deceptive tactics as destructive cults—such as love bombing, isolation, bait-and-switch, and coercive control—to completely trap their victims. For those with Self-Love Deficit Disorder (SLDD), the unconscious pull of the Human Magnet Syndrome can make you highly susceptible to these invisible traps, drawing you into a trauma bond that feels impossible to escape.

Watch as Ross and Chris dissect the psychology of mind control, why normal people fall prey to these predators, and the necessary steps to finally break free and begin your journey toward Self-Love Abundance.
