Her's is one of many similar stories out there, of falling victim to con/mani pulation/con trol tactics etc...

A long watch, but a good one. Prevent being caught out, or get validation for when you did (fall victim/or prevented it)...

She talks about her experience in the yoga world, however this applies to all and any spaces, groups, religions, environments, workplaces and, simply, predators anywhere. Learn and know the difference between healthy dynamics and unhealthy ones.

Holy crap.

Thanks for sharing this video.

Even after watching the video, I can't say I understand how she got roped into his world of BS. His lies were completely absurd. The only reason I can think of is that she was young (early 20s) and didn't know her elbow from her asscrack.

I wish FDS had been around for her back then. I'm glad FDS is around for us now.

When we're young we can be so DUMB, so groomed by the patriarchy to 'be nice', to second guess our own instincts even when we have them. She also got the the point where it sounds like she was rather isolated with him and the brainwashing takes place over time etc...

Someone in the comments out it perfectly, saying "there are a few types of people: people who make mistakes and don’t learn; people who make mistakes and learn from their mistakes; and people who learn from other people’s mistakes."

I have been all three of these people!I recommend reading the comments under the video.

This woman was Ivy League educated and it can happen to anyone.

FDS and similar can help you do you best to not let it happen to you!

Manipulators, controlling people (especially men), can be very sophisticated. We gotta be even more so to see through the BS.
