Sharing an episode of a brand new podcast I’m loving, called Targeted. Imagine that someone wants to see you crushed. Now, imagine they have the power to easily turn the system against you—to take away your job, your family, your business, even your basic rights like the ability to bank or travel freely. And imagine it didn’t even cost them much to do it. This is the story of those who have been targeted. Targeted uncovers the harrowing stories of people who have been singled out and systematically dismantled—whether for political reasons, personal vendettas, or simply for being in the wrong place at the wrong time. Each episode deep dives into the tactics used against them, the devastating consequences, and the remarkable lessons they’ve learned in their fight to survive. Targeted breaks down the playbooks of those who weaponize systems of power, and gives listeners the tools to recognize and resist being targeted themselves. If you’ve ever wondered how systems meant to protect can be weaponized, or what to do if you find yourself in the crosshairs, this podcast is for you. You can find more episodes of Targeted at Targeted.com, YouTube or wherever you get podcasts. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
