Find the full transcript for this episode and other resources for sensitive souls at transformintowisdom.com/11Today we are deep diving on what daughters of narcissistic fathers need to know—Part 3. Why is this important? Because after a narcissistic relationship, it’s crucial to find the source of where it all started. And in most cases, it starts at home. There are special toxic effects that are a result of being born in a narcissistic family. In episode 9 we talked about the pain of witnessing or experiencing physical violence. In episode 10, we talked about the lasting impact of the lack of emotional safety and the intentional infliction of emotional harm. In today’s episode we go further into the damaging effects of hearing chronic criticism on a developing nervous system. We also delve deeper into the psychological effects of emotional reversal and loyalty conditioning by a narcissistic father. And here is the truth, if in your family of origin and with your father:You were trained to protect his image, even when he hurt you—you will do the same with a narcissistic partner. Speaking about him honestly was labeled as disrespect, betrayal, or exaggeration—you will do the same with a narcissistic partner. You internalized the belief that your silence was a virtue—you will do the same with a narcissistic partner. LISTEN IN Support the showStay empowered and true to yourself.— Mariam Kavai, Transform into WisdomIf something in today's episode stirred something in you — if you are ready to move beyond understanding what happened and into actually rebuilding — I would love to connect with you.I work with sensitive souls who are ready for structured, supported rebuilding after narcissistic relationships and dysfunctional family systems.
