The Family Scapegoat Chronicles l True Stories of Healing and Freedom From Family Scapegoating and Narcissistic Abuse

Created and hosted by Elle Boone; voice actor, storyteller, songstress, creative writer, certified health coach, trauma-informed life coach, and seasoned Escapegoat Artist — The Family Scapegoat Chronicles is a first-of-its-kind audio experience that turns private pain into public medicine through the power of shared stories.

The show was made for those who have lived as the family scapegoat and are ready to face the patterns, the residue, and the reckoning that follow while healing their way toward freedom in their own reflection.

Through guided exposure (a form of somatic regulation) rooted in story, music, and parody, Elle leads listeners through what trauma therapy calls pendulation — the body’s natural movement between activation and calm that helps rewire the nervous system, allowing them to witness trauma patterns without reliving them and find emotional release along the way. It’s not just storytelling; it’s an immersive, audio-based co-regulation experience crafted to help the body remember what calm and safety feel like.

Elle’s deliberate emotional architecture with recurring musical motifs, humor breaks, and grounding interludes in disguise, creates emotional safety through containment. Her creative writing and wit bring depth and digestibility to heavy subject matter, turning complex psychology into vivid storytelling. She’s not narrating trauma; she’s guiding healing instead of triggering it, helping listeners define themselves rather than their wounds and teaching agency over pathology.

With this work, Elle has created the blueprint of an entirely new form of healing media — a purpose-driven fusion of psychology, performance, creative writing, and sonic art that functions as emotional regulation disguised as entertainment.

Listeners walk away feeling grounded, seen, and soothed — reminded that healing doesn’t have to hurt to work.

This is what healing sounds like.
