We examine the sly methods Abusers use to dodge rejection in the initial stages of a relationship.

    This eBook reveals the actions of abusers, their successful tactics, and the choreography of these maneuvers. It also explains the reasons behind them, which we can discuss more comprehensively in the podcasts.

    The eBook is accessible on my website, www.drdinamcmillan.com. Owning a copy can be extremely beneficial as we explore its contents. No copy, no problem. You'll still gain vital information from this podcast that could safeguard you and your loved ones.

  • Episode 37: Discussing the New Book - Brief Overview of Abusers' Strategies
    Sep 13 2024

    I put a lot of thought into creating my eBook, Brief Overview of Abusers' Strategies and Tactics. I'm excited to dive into its key insights in this episode and the next.

    Research shows that the more often you engage with information across different formats, the better you retain it — especially when you pair it with a visual reference. This is exactly why I’m breaking down the eBook here on the Unmasking the Abuser podcast.

    The eBook is under 60 pages, designed to be read in less than an hour. It focuses specifically on what abusers do. While it's concise, understanding the how and why behind these behaviors is equally important. That's what we'll explore together in these episodes.

    You don't need to have a copy of the eBook to follow along — just tune in and absorb the insights! But if you want your own copy, you can get it directly from my website: www.drdinamcmillan.com.

    Listen in, and let’s uncover these critical strategies together!
