Description

In this episode, I speak with trauma-informed coach Michelle Roehab on the impact that narcissistic parents have, particularly on highly sensitive and highly empathic children & adults, and how that shapes we way we navigate our relationships in the present. We speak about how it erodes our sense of self, contributes to guilt, shame, and self-blame, feeling responsible for other people's feelings and well-being, and makes us question healthy, secure leaning relationships. It also contributes to Fearful-avoidant (Disorganized) attachment patterns, where the person we go to for comfort, closeness, and intimacy is also the person that we consistently pull away from. All in all, a very good episode and definitely worth a listen! You can find links to Michelle's work below if you are interested in connecting with her.
