Tired of feeling like someone else is quietly rewriting your identity, one decision at a time? Do you sense the manipulation, but still feel trapped in the cycle - mentally, emotionally, or even physically?

Every day, countless people find themselves trapped in the subtle, insidious control of narcissists and manipulators.
