On this episode of Narcissist Apocalypse, we talk with an abuse survivor named Tahiri, and Tahiri was in a relationship with a controlling spiritual abuser.

It's a story of facades, sexual assault, addiction, blame shifting, and guilt by association.

Music and guilt by association. Welcome to Narcissist Apocalypse, everyone. I am Brandon Chadwick. And with me today, we have Tahiri. How are you?

And a content warning for this episode, as we do discuss sexual assault in this episode on a couple of occasions as well as physical

abuse in this episode. So there is your content warning there. And this episode today you

are about to hear has actually been in the vault for about three years, almost three years now. It was on the shorter

end at the time, and we weren't putting out shorter episodes at that time. But now our Friday

episodes are shorter. So we decided that this week we're going to put this episode out. And it's not

a conventional episode how we do things now when it comes to

her survivor stories. And, you know, this story, it's a story of abuse, but it's also a story of

finding out that your abuser is also a sexual predator and taking advantage of other people

all under your nose.

And Tahiri had to navigate this situation where she's feeling guilty by association,

feeling bad for the other people, but also dealing with trying to figure out your own

stuff and what's going on with you and how you're dealing with, you know, being abused

yourself, but also this whole situation of what's real, like, what has actually happened here.
