35: Finding Sovereignty - Tina Djuretic on Breaking Free from Narcissistic Abuse and Generational Trauma

🎤 Reclaiming Your Voice After Narcissistic Abuse – Part 2In this powerful second installment of our four-part series, I sit down with author and survivor Tina Djuretic, whose memoir Finding My Sovereignty is a raw, soul-stirring account of breaking free from abuse, cult conditioning, and deeply ingrained toxic family dynamics.Tina opens up about being raised by a bipolar mother and an abusive father, how that set the stage for three destructive relationships, and the trauma bonding that kept her stuck. Together, we unpack the why behind staying, the generational patterns that keep us silent, and the spiritual awakening that finally sparked Tina’s healing journey.This is a conversation about gaslighting, grief, guilt—and growth. It’s about realizing the red flags were there from day one, and learning to forgive yourself for not walking away sooner.We talk about:Narcissistic abuse and how it rewires your self-worthThe cult-like control of fear-based religionTrauma bonding and codependencyWhat it really takes to break freeSpiritual healing, sovereignty, and self-loveTina’s honesty will hit you in the gut—in the best way.
