Episode 210: The Top Signs You've Experienced Narcissistic Abuse and How to Flourish Afterwards with Marina J

Euphoric the Podcast

As today’s guest Marina J. reminds us, if we don’t allow ourselves to heal from toxic relationships, it’s difficult to really live.

Marina J. is an expert on narcissistic abuse, coaching women so they can reclaim their freedom, power, and light. She specializes in shadow work and is the author of Turn Yourself On, which is about turning on your power and your ability to heal.

Recently, Karolina released the episode, “10 Reasons Alcohol is Like a Toxic Ex-Boyfriend,” which was based on a real experience. For her, learning she didn’t just have a jerk of an ex-boyfriend – that she actually suffered narcissistic abuse – was so empowering.

Narcissistic abuse is more common than we might think, but giving it a name and proper space allows you to unpack it and move forward. The good news? There are some key things we can do now to start flourishing, so please share this episode with the women in your life who need to hear it.

IN THIS EPISODE:

• Marina’s story, and the impact taking on other people’s feelings had on her body – including the realizations she had when she started practicing yoga
• Telltale signs of a narcissist and the red flags to look for (for example: narcissists don’t self-reflect)
• Gaslighting, shadow work, and the length it takes to heal from a narcissistic, abusive relationship vs. a normal relationship
• Entangling yourself from a narcissist and the importance of finding somebody who allows you to be heard so you can start rebuilding yourself
• The similarities between narcissists and dementors from the Harry Potter books – and the idea that narcissists are MADE vs. the idea that they’re born that way
