Who we are
We are women who were silenced, dismissed, and made to doubt our own instincts.
We are survivors of emotional abuse—especially the kind no one talks about: silent gaslighting.
We are not victims anymore.
We are leaders of our healing.
Mothers. Creators. Businesswomen. Advocates.
Women rebuilding our lives after being quietly broken.
Carlin Speaks was founded to give voice to what too often goes unnamed.
We’re here to expose the hidden tactics, validate the invisible wounds, and guide others through the long, brave process of reclaiming self-trust, safety, and power.
This is more than a blog. It’s a movement.
A community. A resource. A place to begin again.
Whether you’re still in it, just finding your way out, or already rebuilding—
you belong here.
A True Story of Covert Control, Collapse, and Rising Again, as It Evolves.
He only raised a fist, once.
Rarely raised his voice.
But his silence was louder than any scream—and it nearly destroyed me.
In this raw and powerful memoir, Carlin exposes the hidden world of silent gaslighting—a chilling form of emotional abuse designed to erase, confuse, and control without ever being obvious. Over the course of a 21-year relationship, she slowly lost her sense of reality, her voice, her finances, and her safety—all under the illusion of calm.
Through moments of manipulation, lies, emotional withholding, and quiet cruelty, she was made to question everything—including herself. Until one day, the silence broke... and so did she.
But from the wreckage came a reckoning.
Crazy-Maker is a brave, unflinching account of what happens when love is used as a weapon—and what it takes to reclaim your life, your truth, and your power.
