In this episode I had a great conversation with my good friend Lorenn on her struggle with infertility and how it brought the narcissists out. We had a great chat about this plus the childfree angle and how that brings the narcs out too. At just 15 years old, Lorenn was diagnosed with MRKH syndrome: a rare, congenital condition that affects the development of the female reproductive system. Having been a victim of narcissistic abuse in the face of her infertility, Lorenn has since been discussing the connection between these topics and helping to bring them to more public awareness: What do you do when a narcissist rubs their pregnancy news in your face? How do you handle their sudden discard once the baby arrives? What do you do when the narcissist shames you for having a medical condition like this?

It’s normal to feel like it’s “too late” or you’re “too old” to have learned about narc abuse because of all the lost opportunities and time. The truth is, this is repressed grief and as long as you’re a living breathing human, regardless of how old you are, it’s NOT TOO LATE! I’ve even heard people who are 20/21 years old saying it’s too late - it’s not! In this episode I explain why it’s absolutely not too late for you. Interested in learning more about my community?

And they’ll be pretty upset with me for letting you know about them, but they can go cry about it in their little miserable corner of the universe 😆 Letting go of false hope mini course: https://letsgetyourshifttogether.com/product/letting-go-of-false-hope-mini-course/ The mini course is included in tier 2 of my community membership - much better value this way, but if the community isn’t for you, you can just grab the mini course separately :) Link to join the community: https://letsgetyourshifttogether.com/community/
In todays episode I talk about why a narcissist might tell you you’re punishing them when you set a boundary with them. There’s nothing more frustrating than mustering up all the courage to set the boundary, carefully considering the other persons feelings, and finally going ahead and setting the boundary after overthinking it for weeks and weeks only to be accused of being some type of ogre. It’s yet another classic manipulation tactic narcissists love to use to try and control their target with guilt! Listen to the episode to learn more.

This is the cycle that never ends, yes it goes on and on my friend! 🙃 Don’t be fooled by the love bombing! The narcissist has conditioned you to accept their behaviour as “normal” so the cycle can continue on as long as possible. In this episode, I talk about what's really going on when things are going well with the narcissist in your life. It's really just another manipulation tactic to keep the cycle of abuse alive and well. You can’t change the narcissist, the only thing you can control is how you react. No reaction is the goal, but it’s hard when your emotions are bamboozled all over the place and the narcissist is trying to provoke you. It’s important to see through the manipulation tactics, take your emotions out of it, and make the logical choice rather than the emotional choice you’re being manipulated with. Doing the inner work in baby steps is how you master this. One day at a time. Journaling is a great and free way to start doing the work! 🚨📣But if you’re looking for a supportive community with resources, guidance from a trauma informed coach with decades of lived experience who did the work, made it to the other side, and has worked with hundreds of survivors (hint: that’s me!!😆), courses, at an affordable price point, I invite you to join my new community membership!

In todays episode I dive into why narcissistic abusers say you’re “punishing” them when you set a boundary (hint: it’s a manipulation tactic to make you feel guilty).
