06 | Why Covert Narcissists Hate Boundaries And What That Reveals About Your Healing

from Confidence After Narcissistic Abuse | Covert Narcissist, Discernment, Boundaries, Healing, Self Worth · host Tekyia Nisheka | Narcissistic Abuse Recovery Coach

Does every boundary you set turn into an argument, guilt trip, or emotional meltdown? Do you feel unsafe or guilty the moment you say "no"? Have you ever wondered why such small limits cause such big reactions? In this episode, I'm breaking down why covert narcissists react so strongly to your boundaries and what their resistance reveals about your healing. You'll learn why boundaries threaten their control (it's not about the boundary itself — it's about their loss of access to you), why their reaction is NOT your responsibility, and how their pushback is actually confirmation you're changing and growing. If boundaries feel scary, this episode will give you clarity, empowerment, and peace. Related Episodes: Episode 1 - You're Not Crazy!
