Kouri Richins: What Coercive Control Actually Looks Like Behind Closed Doors

Kouri Richins: What Coercive Control Actually Looks Like Behind Closed Doors

The Kouri Richins case gave the public a front-row seat to financial manipulation, infidelity, and alleged murder. But the years leading up to all of it — the sustained, invisible dynamics inside that marriage — are the part of the story that resonates with the most people.

Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott joins Tony Brueski and Robin Dreeke to examine what the middle years of a relationship with a narcissistic or borderline partner actually look like from the inside. Trauma bonding. Gaslighting. The systematic erosion of identity. Why someone who knows something is deeply wrong keeps staying, keeps functioning, keeps holding everything together.

This is the episode that explains what the courtroom evidence couldn't.
