Escaping Narcissistic Relationships

When I was 21 years old, I had surgery on my jaw to improve a very pronounced underbite. It was the 2nd time in 5 years I was having this surgery. Two months later I wound up in the hospital with a swollen face. A sinus infection had penetrated unhealed gaps where they cut my jaw, and leaked into the area between my skin and flesh throughout my face. It was extremely painful. Physically and emotionally. I remember looking in the mirror at my face. I was horrific looking. The swelling from my jaw surgery took weeks to go away and now this.I distinctly remember talking to God and asked, Why me? Today's guest, Stephany Ann, also had a, Why Me, moment. I suspect most of us have had one. Hers was on the bathroom floor in her sister's home after leaving an abusive relationship. Not once, but twice Stephany fell trap to the cunning charm of narcissistic personalities.I want you to hear her story of overcoming not just the trauma from those relationships, but also the fallout that came when those relationships were over.Stephany Ann is an advocate for domestic abuse survivors and a wealth of knowledge for anyone recovering from any form of traumatic experience.We talk about God, faith, forgiveness, and healing. It is truly one of my favorite episodes. Not only did it help me understand what I can do better to overcome hard stuff in my life, but I better understand those I love who are in narcissistic relationships, why they stay, keep going back for more, and how I can help them. Follow Stephany AnnLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stephanyann/Follow James Keddington and Better Me NationFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/keddington/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/keddington/Better Me Nation Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/abettermenationInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/bettermenation/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@jamesthehealthcoachYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCspw05YUU1UM3wR08I9ULbAResources: Free: 10 Power Habits of Health and Happy People: https://www.bettermenation.com/free-booklet-improve-every-area-of-health/
