0:00.0	Welcome to indoctrination, a weekly conversation series about protecting yourself from systems of control.
0:11.1	I'm your host, Rachel Bernstein.
0:14.1	Hi, everyone. I want to be able to talk about something today on my own, something that I will be offering actually
0:24.1	in two parts. This is the first part. I've done some videos and some seminars and workshops on
0:32.0	narcissism and narcissistic abuse, being in a relationship with a narcissist, how to leave a person with that personality style, and also the impact it has on those within that relationship.
0:46.5	And because of the work I have done and now because of the podcast, the emails and texts and calls I have been receiving as of late, many and many of them
0:57.1	have been encouraging me to collect a lot of this information to offer it to you on the podcast.

2:20.0	raised by a narcissist, which sometimes actually leads you into relationships with narcissists
2:26.6	later on because you know what that's like. You know what that relationship's like. You may not
2:31.7	like it. It might not be healthy, but it's familiar.
2:35.2	Some people also talk about getting involved in work and having their boss be a narcissist.
2:39.7	And that that job then took over their lives in every way. It had to be the most important thing
2:45.5	in their lives. And they felt like their life, their family, their children, their time, their health was less
