How wonderful!!! I'm again thrilled that it resonated! It's quite an old article actually (a year and a half)! I was still not done with my transformation!
The most important piece of my abuse and out-of-body experience (among other stuff) was not mentioned! I was not yet ready to open up about everything, I'm guessing!
An important detail that was not explored, neither, is that EI does not apply and should not be used with abusers/manipulators.
As counterintuitive as it may sound, instead of doing good, it will only ENABLE them and give them permission to abuse more individuals.
That's why learning how to spot them in the first place and breaking our denial circle (when they're family and that it's a hard truth to accept) later is a MUST!
