| 0:00.0 | Their desire to get their needs met will run roughshod over anyone in their path. I am going to talk about why it can feel impossible to leave a narcissist and how the key to finally being able to leave or disengage might be found in Star Wars. |
| 0:43.3 | Now before I get into this video, I realize how fraught and complex the subject of narcissism is. |
| 0:51.3 | I do not claim to be an expert in narcissism. My dear friend Dr. Romney is an expert in |
| 0:59.4 | narcissism. She is someone who is, in my opinion, the most studied, researched, powerful expert |
| 1:08.1 | on earth when it comes to this subject. and I suggest you both get her book, |
| 1:12.1 | it's not you, and follow her YouTube channel for all things narcissism related. |
| 1:18.5 | What I have been able to develop over the years are some useful mental models for dealing |

| 2:19.6 | if you're new to this channel, my name is Matthew Hussey. For the last 17 years of my life, |
| 2:24.6 | I've been helping people heal from the past, develop confidence and find love through |
| 2:30.7 | increasing their self-worth and relational intelligence. And I am very excited to have you |
| 2:36.7 | here, especially today, because we have a Black Friday sale on right now for Matthew A.I. If you've |
| 2:44.8 | never used Matthew A.I, it is a tool that I have that democratizes access to me as a coach. |
