Divorcing A Narcissist - Part Two

July 03, 2015 01:23 - 51 minutes - 46.4 MB

There really is no wonder that divorcing a narcissist takes the level of trauma of divorce to an unprecedented level – when we consider things such as: the cruel discards and replacing with new partners, new partners attacking you as well as the narcissist, battling over custody and property and the financial losses that generally happen as a result of the relationship, and whilst dealing with legal systems and narcissists in general. Personally, divorcing my ex narcissist was the most excru...

How To Divorce A Narcissist Part 1

June 26, 2015 07:09 - 37 minutes - 33.8 MB

I think we would all agree that divorce is one of the most excruciating things anyone can go through. Psychologists Thomas Holmes and Richard Rahe in 1967 created a list of the top 43 most stressful life events. Divorce rated the second most stressful, only capped by death of a spouse. That describes a normal divorce. But what about divorcing a narcissist? THAT takes the stress to a whole new level. In this 2 part series I will be covering many aspects of divorcing a narcissist including...

What It Means To Be Addicted To A Narcissist - And How To Break Free From It

June 12, 2015 03:53 - 50 minutes - 45.2 MB

Feeling “addicted” to the narcissist is one of the most horrible and powerless things about suffering the trauma of narcissistic abuse. The most frustrating is that friends and family and those who care about you cannot comprehend what you are going through. They respond with logical solutions like "just leave him/her"? and "Why do you stay?" In this show I want to deeply explore what it means to be addicted to a narcissist and how you can break free from it.  Please know, if you haven't a...

Narcissistic Abuse - You're Damned If You Do, Damned If You Don't

May 22, 2015 02:58 - 43 minutes - 39.1 MB

One of the most frustrating things about being narcissistically abused is that you can’t win … It doesn’t matter how hard you try to do the right thing, the narcissist still finds fault with you. However, sometimes they turn on their charm and you can do no wrong… Which is almost always due to the narcissist trying to get something from you. In this radio show I am going to talk about the dynamics of a relationship with a narcissist, why they idolize you and then demean you, and how you can...

Epigenetics And Narcissistic Abuse

April 23, 2015 21:05 - 26 minutes - 22.9 MB

This radio show was prompted by me aofs a result  seeing Bruce Lipton live not long ago. This is a conversation that is very relevant to how we can recover from narcissistic abuse.

Your Easter Renewal

April 03, 2015 03:19 - 25 minutes - 22.8 MB

Because Easter is nearly upon us, I wanted to write about “renewal”. Easter time is a time of re-grouping for me; it feels like a reflective break to plan and reassess. Easter is traditionally a time of re-birth, re-centring and creating ourselves anew. In this show I am going to be talking about expanding into new directions, desires and projects. Shedding limiting beliefs and fears that have held you back and changing our consciousness to change our life. Plus I'm also going to be shari...

Does Praising Our Children Create Narcissists?

March 26, 2015 03:48 - 26 minutes - 23.3 MB

This topic was going viral through the internet not long ago … with articles such as these: http://www.npr.org/blogs/health/2015/03/09/391874530/do-parents-nurture-narcissists-by-pouring-on-the-praise http://www.independent.ie/life/family/parenting/dont-want-to-raise-a-narcissist-stop-telling-your-children-theyre-special-31054501.html I think this topic, “the danger of praising children”, is laden with misunderstandings, and if taken literally could cause more narcissism than prevent it.

Co-dependency Checkup - Part One

December 03, 2014 11:00 - 59 minutes - 53.8 MB

Because it is nearly the end of the year, this is a great time to reflect – to see where we are, and what we have grown through this year. I believe a big part of that is checking in with where we are at with co-dependency. Are we still handing power over to things and people outside of ourselves, or are we more anchored into our own internal solidness? “What Is co-dependency?” My definition of it is this: “trying to seek wholeness and internal peace from sources outside of self, rather tha...

September 24, 2014 12:17 - 1 hour - 55.3 MB
