After studying law and international human rights, Emma turned away from a lifepath that looked good on paper but felt like slow death — and spent the next decade deep in the healing world. Despite all the therapy, yoga, mindset work, and energy practices, she still found herself stuck in loops of self-erasure, burnout, and invisibility… until she uncovered the deeper truth: she’dinternalized a narcissistic system of control, and it was running her from the inside out. Today, Emma helps high-functioning, heart-led women dismantle that inner narcissist, the shame voice that humiliates, controls, and impersonates them, so they can reclaim clarity, power, and nervous system freedom. 💜 Connect with Dr. Stacy: • Website:www.drstacyfriedman.com • Social: @drstacyfriedman (IG, TikTok, YouTube, FB), LinkedIn: @drstacy • Podcast: The Purple Passion Project ✨ Leave a Review: If this episode stirred something in you, let it.
