Hello and welcome back - Today I sit down with author, therapist, speaker, and survivor of narcissistic abuse and coercive control - Mia Döring.If you listened to season 1, you would have definitely heard me talk about her book:Any Girl: A Memoir of Surviving Prostitution in Ireland.If you haven't, I highly highly recommend it. It is a memoir that recounts her time growing up and becoming involved with the sex trade in Ireland, and ultimately becoming an escort before escaping and beginning to make sense of what had happened to her. It is beautifully written, and I highly recommend the audiobook version - as Mia narrates it very well. Join us for part one of this two part interview, as we talk about her journey navigating a narcisisstic relationship; how it started, where it went, and how she got out.I hope you enjoy.If you have questions, thoughts, or topics you’d like covered, you can use the contact form on practicalsomatic.com/podcast.If you — or someone you know — is interested in further resources, somatic coaching with me, or advice and guidance (sounding board sessions) to support healing after narcissistic or coercive abuse, you can find more information at practicalsomatic.com.If this episode resonates, rating or reviewing the podcast helps it reach people who are still trying to make sense of their experience.Thanks!

Hello and welcome back - Today's episode is all about self advocacy. What is it, really - and what do we trauma survivors sometimes THINK it is. Where does gaslighting come in, and what does the body have to say about all of this? Join me as I share my experiences from 2024... 2 years on! That's right, this episode is actually a throwback episode from a time in my life that was quite chaotic, and so I completely forgot to upload it! I found it really interesting to hear me then, as I sat with me now - and notice the changes. So, as you listen today, I hope you reflect on where you were 2 years ago. What has changed, how have you healed, and how is your life better now than it was then? It's important to notice progress, and that's something we often forget about!I hope you enjoy.If you have questions, thoughts, or topics you’d like covered, you can use the contact form on practicalsomatic.com/podcast.If you — or someone you know — is interested in further resources, somatic coaching with me, or advice and guidance (sounding board sessions) to support healing after narcissistic or coercive abuse, you can find more information at practicalsomatic.com.If this episode resonates, rating or reviewing the podcast helps it reach people who are still trying to make sense of their experience.Thanks!

In this episode, the girls start a miniseries on the different types of Narcissism.It's important to consider the different 'types' when we talk about narcissists because they are each unique, meaning that narcissistic trait expression can look very different from one type to another.

In this episode, Allie and Alison talk about a tough one:Boundaries.For those of us who have experienced trauma, creating boundaries can be difficult - even in the healthiest of relationships.

With these examples, tips, and the encouragement that you CAN do this - we hope you are motivated to instill some supportive boundaries in your life.*** In this episode, Allie refers to a helpful quote/mantra. The full quote is: "If one of us has to be upset, it doesn't have to be me."
