Estranged parents often say: “We had a perfect relationship, and then something to them. Social media. A therapist. A partner. Their other parents. They were brainwashed. In this episode, Whitney takes that fear seriously and gives it an honest, research-informed answer.


This episode explores:


  • The real history of brainwashing
  • What social media can and can’t do
  • If therapists can implant grievances into clients
  • How the brainwashing framework offers comfort
