On this episode of Narcissist Apocalypse, we talk with an abuse survivor named Beatrix, and Beatrix was in a toxic relationship with a trust-inducing abuser.

It's a story of arrested development, abuse tactics, escape plans, and post-separation, abuse.

Music Abuse. Welcome to Narcissist Apocalypse, everyone. I am Brandon Chadwick and with me today we have Beatrix. How are you?

I'm doing well. Thank you so much. How are you? I'm doing well. And thank you so much for being here with us today. Today we're going to hear your story. But before we get into it, if you want to be

And there's a lot of post-separation abuse in this story.

There's a lot of great learning lessons from the mistakes that she made in the story.

There's generational trauma as well.

Also in this story, there is a trigger warning here. There's a brief discussion of sexual abuse,

not child sexual abuse, but there was, I guess, it's hard to explain. It was something that happened

when she was younger. She was exposed to things that she shouldn't have been exposed to.

There's also a sexual abuse when it comes to her partner when our partner's actually older.

So there's the trigger warning on that as well. And there's a lot of physical intimidation that goes on in this story too. So trigger warning for everything.

And I just want to say a big thank you once again to Beatrix for being a guest on our show.

So now Beatrix, the floor is now yours.

All right.

Thank you so much.

I'm really happy, excited to be here.

So I think where I will start is just where it all begins for a lot of us.
