Have past events tainted your present experience? Do you want a new perspective? In Past Imperfect, Sam Seager and Jude Claybourne take an honest and personal look at recovery from trauma, addiction and narcissistic abuse from a refreshingly light perspective. We’re two friends who love each other, have experienced trauma and have (ultimately) felt enriched by it. We've found that moving the focus away from blame and towards taking responsibility for our own conscious growth can transform trauma from a crippling burden to a nourishing gift. Join us in our conversations and explorations

Victim-blaming, Gaslighting and Radical Personal Responsibility

This week, we talk about how victim-blaming, gaslighting and personal radical responsibility relate to each other. It's fair to say that we take a few detours on the way there - fruitful ones, we hope - and that we have no slick answers to any of our questions.

There are a few blips and bumps and scratchy noises on this recording. Soz.

TRIGGER WARNINGS: We mention/discuss domestic abuse, sexual abuse in ways that some people may find triggering (but without descriptive detail).

Note: we are two fairly well informed people and self-confessed bangers-on with opinions that we like to talk about. We're not expert voices telling things how they are, just how the are for us. Neither of us is a trained psychotherapist or counsellor, so we're unable to offer direct support for specific situations, but there are always organisations or programs that can help.
