On this episode of Narcissist Apocalypse Q&A, everyone.

I am Brandon Chadwick. And on today's special episode, we have Evan Stark.

And for those of you that don't know who Evan Stark is, he is a forensic social worker, an author of coercive control, how men and trap women in personal life.

His work on coercive control represents one of the most important books ever written about domestic violence and one that should be widely read by advocates, policymakers, and academics.

And we were really lucky to have him be on a show today.

And this is more of a conversation.

And I really just wanted everyone to hear Evan Stark talk about course of control and everything that he learned in his career.

And he's just this really a wonderful, enthusiastic, and passionate person when it comes to this

subject.

And a lot of you've been affected by his life and you just don't know it.

And from reading things online about course of control and a lot of the

stuff came from him and the colleagues that he worked with in the process. So I just really want to say

thank you for everyone listening and thank you to Evan Stark for being a guest on our show today.

And I just want to give a trigger warning for everyone that during this episode, throughout it, you'll hear stories of possible murder, of sexual assault, of physical assault.

If this is not for you, please do not listen to this episode.

I mean, but the reason coercive control has taken a hold is because nothing was working.

But let's be clear about one thing.

Women have been talking about course control since day one.
