What I Learned the Hard Way by Surviving Narcissistic Abuse and Focusing on Healing

from Support, Protect, Empower - The Project Purpose Podcast · host Rachelle Innocent

What I Learned the Hard Way by Surviving Narcissistic Abuse and Focusing on HealingThe bitter pill about abuse is that it doesn't happen in a vacuum.Chances are, if you grew up normalizing abusive behaviour you will attract this behaviour in the relationships and friendships that you have, as well. Mostly because we normalize and are desensitized to the cues that signal abusive behaviour or bad intentions, given the environments we are familiar with. This was the case for me, as I dealt with breaking ties not only with my family, but in my personal and professional network as well.Healing enables us to break the patterns and the cycles of abusive, if we focus on doing better when we know better, and prioritize our own healing.Do you have any questions?
