from Lisa A Romano Breakdown to Breakthroughs · host Lisa A. Romano

How to Know If My Parent Is a Narcissist: Signs You Were Raised by Narcissistic Caregivers If you've ever found yourself asking, "Was this normal?" or "Why do I still struggle even though I'm an adult?"—this episode is for you. In this episode, Lisa A. Romano explores the subtle and often misunderstood signs of narcissistic parenting, and how being raised by a narcissistic, emotionally neglectful, or emotionally immature parent can shape your nervous system, self-concept, and relationships well into adulthood. Rather than focusing on labels or blame, this conversation helps adult children understand what they adapted to in order to survive—and why so many struggle with self-doubt, people-pleasing, emotional suppression, and codependency later in life. You'll learn: Common traits of narcissistic parents that often go unrecognized Why children internalize blame and self-abandonment How narcissistic parenting impacts emotional regulation and self-trust Why healing is about awareness and nervous system safety—not fixing yourself ✨ It's not you. ✨ It's your programming. ✨ And programming can be changed.
