Kouri Richins: The Psychology of the End — Why Leaving Is When It Gets Most Dangerous

Kouri Richins: The Psychology of the End — Why Leaving Is When It Gets Most Dangerous

In the Kouri Richins case, prosecutors allege that as Eric moved quietly toward the exit — consulting lawyers, adjusting finances — the situation escalated toward something irreversible. That pattern isn't unique to this case. It's documented, it's consistent, and it's something psychotherapist Shavaun Scott has spent decades studying.

Scott joins Tony Brueski and Robin Dreeke to examine the final phase of relationships with narcissistic and borderline partners — what triggers it, what the person losing control actually does, and what anyone in this situation needs to know before they make a move. She also talks about the children left inside these dynamics and what real recovery looks like for the partner who gets out.

This is the conversation that goes beyond the crime.
