*Content Warning* In this episode we talk about SA and Narcissistic Abuse, please use discretion when listening.

Have you ever experienced a narcissist? Maybe you were raised by one, controlled by one, or in love with one. Sometimes we affectionately call the relationship dynamic a "1-on-1 Cult". Unfortunately for "Tina", she checked all the boxes, and jumped from one frying pan into a brand new frying pan that included being recruited into Amway by a toxic love interest.
