ÜBER DIESE EPISODE

Healing from a Covert Narcissistic Mother: Reclaiming the Self | Epi 175

This episode is the second excerpt from my interview at the Healing the Mother Wound Summit. We explore why the impact of a covert narcissistic mother extends far beyond childhood, how these early experiences become internalized as part of the personality, and why healing involves much more than simply letting go of the hope that your mother will one day change. We also discuss the false self, people-pleasing, guilt, and I also begin to introduce my framework for Reclaiming the Self.
