Hello, everybody. This is lasalle [and] this is Tracy and

0:00:27.980,0:00:33.579
What we’re doing is well. Tracy’s trailer. I would say we’re cooking dinner, but actually [the] truth if truth be told

0:00:34.550,0:00:38.559
Tracy’s cooking dinner, and I’m her moral support right now

0:00:39.290,0:00:41.290
Go Tracy go JC

0:00:42.890,0:00:49.959
So tracy um has decked me out in this fine shirt and tracy why do you have two [of] these shirts I?

0:00:50.300,0:00:52.300
Have two of these shirts

0:00:52.460,0:00:58.900
and many others in my closet that my ex-husband the narcissist was such a

0:01:00.110,0:01:06.220
Spendthrift that when we would go to stores shoe stores clothing stores. He was just like rip stuff off the

0:01:07.460,0:01:12.610
Racks and make me try it on and if I said no he would still go and put into the counter and buy it

0:01:12.799,0:01:18.459
so at least four or five times we’d get home, and I’m like I already have that shirt and

0:01:19.250,0:01:24.339
He would be like well now you got [two]. So there’s thank you ex-husband I

0:01:24.980,0:01:30.009
Don’t know [like] well. You know it were no. I do a little spoof here together for Narcissus

0:01:30.710,0:01:32.710
How cool is it if we match?

0:01:32.780,0:01:39.339
Mm-Hmm apparently Tracy said she’s the good one since she’s now wearing the wines am I wearing black yeah

0:01:39.350,0:01:43.150
Sort of we decided it’s more thelma, and louise however. Yeah

0:01:43.729,0:01:45.220
time for selfie yeah

0:01:45.220,0:01:48.669
Exactly oh my God for matching but so good

0:01:49.100,0:01:53.739
So tell [me] what you did today cuz you had something really did I did I am

0:01:53.840,0:01:58.030
I have been writing a little bit of an article for elephant Journal

0:01:58.030,0:02:02.229
so I’ve had a few things published with elephant journal before and it’s such a great platform for

0:02:03.560,0:02:07.659
mindful living and for growth and for personal development and

0:02:08.479,0:02:11.889
So I’ve been submitting an article. Well, it’s submitted

0:02:13.489,0:02:20.018
An article that deals very much with um with our experience our shared experience, but also

0:02:21.439,0:02:26.329
Coming out of that. You know moving forward now. What now, what are we going to do now and

0:02:27.390,0:02:32.870
It’s been fun. I have very much trouble limiting myself to a thousand words

0:02:33.900,0:02:37.189
Because obviously it’s a much bigger story than a thousand words

0:02:37.830,0:02:39.600
but

0:02:39.600,0:02:46.040
That’s cool, and it’s like it’s done now, so it’s it’s very exciting now wait what car wife to see it in print?

0:02:46.040,0:02:52.579
I know well when it comes out because it’s going to you know hopefully soon. Yeah, we’ll put a link on it

0:02:52.580,0:02:58.940
Maybe we’ll highlight it in some way just because elephant charles a great place to go and she taught me about it

0:02:58.940,0:03:01.790
I didn’t even know until we see ya it’s a great resource as well

0:03:01.790,0:03:04.339
And in fact even if you guys want to check it out, you should

0:03:05.040,0:03:08.329
It has some wonderful articles not just on obviously on

0:03:08.910,0:03:11.119
narcissists and impacts and that kind of thing

0:03:11.120,0:03:16.670
but it’s really on moving forward on getting to the next stage of moving through pain and and

0:03:16.950,0:03:19.249
Moving past the obstacles and the challenges of your life

0:03:19.920,0:03:26.540
Yeah, and you what did you do miss Tracy? Well, I had a revelation

0:03:27.270,0:03:29.270
last night actually

0:03:29.550,0:03:31.550
Because of something that I did

0:03:32.550,0:03:37.999
Really in this new healing stage in this new place of my life not living in fear

0:03:38.520,0:03:42.950
And I’m going to take out your fall clothes um Gi your fall clothes

0:03:42.950,0:03:47.719
And you have things in there and some clothing brings back memories

0:03:47.790,0:03:53.839
so I had this wonderful pair of shoes that was my Ex aunt in law and

0:03:54.780,0:03:55.950
I

0:03:55.950,0:03:57.900
wanted to

0:03:57.900,0:04:04.160
you know the memories came flying back and so I reached out to her and sent an email yesterday and

0:04:04.740,0:04:06.170
Said I’m coming to New York

0:04:06.170,0:04:11.079
I would love to see you [and] it was really spurred on by the fact that I had had this

0:04:12.989,0:04:20.659
Thing [about] the shoe that she had given me and so I reached out and of course. I forgot that she is the sister

0:04:21.720,0:04:23.720
My Ex-Father-in-law

0:04:23.880,0:04:28.039
how could I forget that but I’m so innocent it was so just

0:04:28.740,0:04:33.350
You know, but it really made me think in a way that I hadn’t in a while

0:04:35.280,0:04:39.289
Okay, and action action so and maybe think about

0:04:39.990,0:04:42.470
fact that my Ex family

0:04:43.710,0:04:46.759
is probably going around and had flying monkeys and

0:04:48.030,0:04:52.009
Sabotage and lied and told stories about me

0:04:52.830,0:04:58.729
Just like it’s a smear campaign right that since I’m sure and because it’s been four years

0:04:58.770,0:05:04.070
I really didn’t [even] think about that because I just learned about the narcissus with this jerk

0:05:04.289,0:05:10.909
Let you know I’m up there um but yeah, I just learned about it so [I] can I’m applying all of these things

0:05:10.910,0:05:12.910
I’m learning to 3x

0:05:12.960,0:05:14.820
It never occurred to me that

0:05:14.820,0:05:19.279
2x and his family did the same thing you just didn’t know it because I don’t care can I ask you a question

0:05:19.380,0:05:23.689
Like just for me um can you tell me again? What a flying monkeys a

0:05:24.090,0:05:29.869
flying monkey is is a term that they use it’s based on the wizard of oz that a

0:05:32.099,0:05:34.789
Narcissist uses one of your friends to

0:05:35.550,0:05:37.380
Almost re abuse you R

0:05:37.380,0:05:39.240
‘victim eyes you by

0:05:39.240,0:05:46.010
Telling them false stories kind of before you do before you get out and say your story because you’re so in shock

0:05:46.199,0:05:50.809
they get out there and they start using these people to poison them against you and

0:05:51.150,0:05:55.849
So you’re kind of taking someone just like the monkeys did the witch’s work?

0:05:56.280,0:05:59.510
Now a flying monkey in the narcissist world is

0:06:00.780,0:06:02.729
somebody that’s going to

0:06:02.729,0:06:08.569
Say bad things about you or not be on your side. They’re basically trying to win them over by for you

0:06:09.419,0:06:11.180
Ok cool

0:06:11.180,0:06:12.090
Yeah

0:06:12.090,0:06:16.340
What’s not cool, but you know what I mean? Oh, yeah, well, you know none of this is cool

0:06:16.530,0:06:23.600
I think that we all need to kind of understand all the different pieces and for me not thinking about

0:06:23.820,0:06:25.939
like the past and all of these things

0:06:27.030,0:06:29.059
how I was a big one and and

0:06:30.060,0:06:37.489
Just wasn’t what you’re thinking, but it’s all good really insulting it is all good for me. It’s been such an education because

0:06:38.280,0:06:43.579
I may or may not have said on video before, but I know nothing about nice assistance or nice system

0:06:45.030,0:06:46.289
my only

0:06:46.289,0:06:49.909
exposure to that is through sort of mess or Mainstream Media and so

0:06:50.130,0:06:55.459
When I when I hear terms like flying monkeys or and Tracy has used a couple of other terms

0:06:55.460,0:06:57.769
I really have to ask what that what that is

0:06:58.259,0:07:04.788
I do recognize it when when the description is given I see how it has played a part in

0:07:07.229,0:07:09.348
behaviors in the Air in Behaviorism

0:07:09.349,0:07:14.179
And I think what I love about that is that I feel a little bit more empowered

0:07:14.180,0:07:18.260
And I feel a little bit more knowledgeable, and I feel a little enlightened

0:07:19.409,0:07:22.939
so it’s kind of adding to my toolkit of

0:07:23.760,0:07:28.909
Looking after the cell. I think I think it because it helps you understand that

0:07:29.460,0:07:34.699
This wasn’t just the pattern of one this is the pattern of all of those

0:07:36.000,0:07:38.419
psychopathic Narcissist and I

0:07:39.659,0:07:46.819
Was reading a statistic in the love fraud book recently it was twelve percent of the population is

0:07:47.759,0:07:50.089
most likely to have been thought of

0:07:51.960,0:07:57.799
narcissistic or she calls it sociopath or narcissistic same same, but you know game, but

0:07:58.440,0:08:00.440
if you think about that twenty four percent

0:08:01.890,0:08:08.569
Having twelve percent when we double it because they’re each going to affect at least one person some will affect a lot more you know

0:08:09.510,0:08:10.770
but

0:08:10.770,0:08:17.539
Just think of that that’s then twenty-four percent of you know the world that is affected by this

0:08:17.540,0:08:21.860
And that’s why [we] need to raise awareness because it’s it’s growing and if we don’t all the signs

0:08:22.530,0:08:25.010
How do we know for the next time?

0:08:25.980,0:08:31.219
Absolutely, so absolutely so what okay, what do you think is the most important thing you then today?

0:08:33.660,0:08:38.239
What’s our lesson for today? I wasn’t today’s is definitely about the [um]

0:08:39.630,0:08:43.130
you know just looking at the patterns of

0:08:44.070,0:08:47.359
Things that have happened in your life, not necessarily just for that one

0:08:48.150,0:08:53.419
narcissus that you might have resumed we had but okay like your parents or your siblings or

0:08:53.940,0:08:57.410
anyone else that your boss somebody that

0:08:58.140,0:09:01.309
You didn’t like their behavior if you start to look at those

0:09:01.890,0:09:05.600
like red flags in other ways you’re going to get

0:09:06.150,0:09:08.179
stronger because you’re going to see it and

0:09:08.790,0:09:15.499
Don’t be like a Narc Paranoia, but you just kind of understand it. I think that’s my listen

0:09:15.500,0:09:20.600
How about you? Yeah? I think for me. That was quite similar actually um I

0:09:21.180,0:09:26.390
Feel so enlightened in being able to identify things that I couldn’t see before perhaps

0:09:27.330,0:09:29.359
And something really

0:09:31.020,0:09:34.549
Struck me today. I was talking to a friend and I realized that

0:09:35.520,0:09:38.749
We really build up our expectation of a partner

0:09:39.930,0:09:45.590
by filling in the gaps and not allowing that person to present himself than their fullness to

0:09:46.470,0:09:52.259
So sometimes you know I know I’ve been a very fanciful person in the past, so when somebody appears in front of me

0:09:52.260,0:09:56.129
And they’re giving me little bits of information and little snippets of themselves

0:09:56.130,0:10:02.310
I tend to fill in the rest with my fanciful idea of what that ideal relationship looks like with them and

0:10:02.920,0:10:06.389
I don’t or I have not in the past allowed it to

0:10:06.700,0:10:12.600
unfold and allow them to be who they really are through their actions and not just their words and

0:10:13.270,0:10:19.410
I have filled in a bit so prettily and I think the most important lesson for me today is to learn that

0:10:19.480,0:10:24.089
I shall allow people to just present themselves as they actually are

0:10:24.520,0:10:30.030
take a step back and know that if it’s meant to be able unfolding the time that it should and

0:10:30.400,0:10:35.670
It will you can’t do yeah, and then if they they fill in blanks purses us in our brains

0:10:36.790,0:10:38.939
I’m much more surprised really

0:10:39.640,0:10:41.050
[like] oh

0:10:41.050,0:10:48.629
And I thought you were that you know totally it’s like on on Jurassic park where they filled in the DNA with frog DnA

0:10:49.180,0:10:53.819
Perfect is there a word for that because then we could mean what you just said that’s perfect

0:10:53.820,0:11:00.450
I’m thinking around negative Lizella, Missoula and Tracy night market like a real missing link has been missing lee

0:11:00.450,0:11:04.440
Give me fill it in so oh my God yeah, so we had good lessons

0:11:05.170,0:11:11.099
Absolutely it was perfect now. I think my dinner Freddie. Good genus. Bye. Bye. See you later. Bye
