Have you been dreading the holiday season due to the presence of narcissistic individuals in your life? I have a transformative solution which is guided meditation.

Have you ever felt like your emotions were dismissed or invalidated by someone close to you? The manipulative tactic known as gaslighting is often used by narcissists to undermine your sense of reality.
Narcissists are driven by a deep-seated need for control and validation and use gaslighting as a means to maintain power over you.
This is a form of emotional abuse that chips away at your confidence, making you question your own perceptions and experiences.
The narcissist's goal is to create a parallel reality where you become reliant on their version of events, ultimately losing touch with your own sense of self.
By recognising the signs of gaslighting, you will take the first step towards reclaiming your autonomy and break free from the narcissist's grip.
Staying vigilant for phrases that dismiss, minimise, or deny your reality is crucial in identifying this manipulative behaviour. With self-awareness and access to support, you can begin the journey of healing and personal transformation, ultimately finding the light at the end of the tunnel.
Key topics covered in this episode:
Understanding gaslighting and its impact on victims
The nature of trauma and personal transformation
Common gaslighting phrases used by narcissists
The psychological impact of gaslighting on victims
Resources and support for those experiencing narcissistic abuse

Have you ever heard your partner say, "Don't worry, I'll handle everything and put it in my name," or "Just let me know if you need anything"? While these phrases might seem like generosity, they can actually be signs of financial abuse. In this episode, Iāll explore covert financial abuse and how narcissists use it to gain control, leaving you with little financial independence and making it hard to leave the relationship. But fear not, I'll guide you on reclaiming your financial independence and safely exiting the relationship.
What you will learn in this episode:
How narcissists hide their control behind generosity. Why so many people suffer from covert financial abuse without noticing. How to become financially independent and safely leave a narcissist.Iāll share a story about a woman I once helped. She left her partner after enduring years of financial abuse, where nothing, not even her phone number, was in her name. She couldn't even get a phone in her own name due to her lack of credit history, as everything financial was tied to her partner. Tune in to discover how you can regain control of your finances and prevent a situation like this. It's important to know that healing from this form of narcissistic abuse is possible.

Introversion, anxiety, empathyā¦ these definitely arenāt behaviours we think of when we picture a narcissist, but they are the traits that the hardest to spot narcissists have. Let me introduce you to the covert narcissist. The covert narcissist can fly under the radar until itās too late, and I want to share with you 10 signs that someone may be a covert narcissist to help you steer clear of them, whether theyāre your current partner, a potential partner, a friend or even a family member.
What you will learn in this episode:
The traits of the common covert narcissist How the covert narcissist differs from the overt narcissist Why the covert narcissist is often the most dangerousWe often associate grandiosity, extraversion, confidence, and a 'look-at-me' attitude with narcissism. While it's important to note that not everyone displaying these traits is a narcissist, they serve as warning signs that help us avoid falling for another narcissist. However, it's crucial to recognize that not all narcissists fit the same mold. The covert narcissist, in particular, poses the greatest danger because they don't exhibit the stereotypical narcissistic behaviour. This makes it much easier to unknowingly fall into their trap.

You have the strength to navigate this challenging period and start the journey to remove the narcissist from your life.

Do you feel stuck in your healing journey from trauma and narcissistic abuse, struggling to find a way forward?
You may find yourself feeling frustrated, like youāve been talking about your pain without truly healing.
Traditional talk therapy, while helpful, often overlooks the bodyās role in healing. To move forward, you must address the nervous system, where trauma is stored. Somatic healing techniques such as EMDR, breathwork, and internal family systems can help process emotions, reduce triggers, and reconnect you to your sense of self.
This journey is about more than talkingāitās about feeling in order to heal. By embracing this holistic approach, youāll begin to notice the emotional weight lifting, allowing you to experience true freedom and growth. Healing is within your reach, and with these tools, you can take the first step toward a thriving life.
Key topics covered in this episode:
Healing from narcissistic abuse
Breaking free from talk therapy limitations
Nervous system healing for trauma
Somatic practices
Reclaiming your sense of self through holistic healing

Are you living in a state of dissociation? If you have experienced long-term toxic or a narcissistic relationship you may find yourself disconnected from your body to numb out the emotional pain.
Dissociation is a protective mechanism, but it's not a healthy way to live. Dissociation can lead to chronic illness, difficulty engaging socially, and a lack of joy and connection. To shift out of this state, you must learn to reconnect with the body through somatic healing practices. This process is not easy, as we're often not taught to embrace our emotions, especially as women. However, by understanding the neuroscience behind dissociation and the importance of working with the nervous system, you can reclaim their sense of presence and groundedness, paving the way for true healing and growth.

Dissociation as a trauma response
Nervous system regulation for healing
Freeze response and physical impacts
Somatic healing for mind-body reconnection

Being codependent could be the reason why you are struggling to heal abuse. Narcissists use "love bombing" tactics to make their codependent partners feel worthy and exploit your lack of self-worth.
When a narcissist's abusive behaviours (e.g., shouting, silent treatment) trigger your codependent's core wound of not feeling good enough, it can lead to chronic illness due to the body's stress response.
The key to escaping this narcissistic trap is to recognise your own self worth and break the codependent cycle through corrective experiences. This will help you avoid toxic relationships, cultivating self-acceptance, and not seeking external validation to feel worthy.
Key topics covered in this episode:
How narcissists use "love bombing" tactics at the start of a relationship
What codependency looks like for you as a parent or partner
Why codependency makes you vulnerable to narcissists
What to do to heal your core wounds
How to break the cycle of codependency

In this episode, I share a deep conversation I had with my children while on holiday, discussing how to navigate online bullies and trolls, especially in the wake of my recent media appearances discussing narcissistic abuse. I talk about the overwhelmingly positive response I received after being featured on the popular UK daytime TV show This Morning, where I was finally able to bring the topic of narcissistic abuse into the mainstream.
I reflect on the importance of being a positive role model for our children, particularly when it comes to navigating the challenges of social media and online bullying. Remember that your worth is not defined by your appearance or any other external factors, and that we must stay strong in our mission to shine a light on the realities of narcissistic abuse.

On today's episode of Trauma and Narcissism Redefined, I'm discussing the difficulties of parenting alongside a narcissist - even after separation. Narcissists will often try to use your children against you, whether that be through forcing you to rely on them financially, influencing their opinion of you directly, or using the court system against you in the case of divorce.
In fact when you go through a divorce with a narcissist the abuse doesn't stop, it often escalates. This is known as post-separation abuse, and only through understanding their methods and healing yourself can you break out of the cycle.

I've dedicated my life to understanding and overcoming the devastating effects of narcissistic abuse. In this episode, I take you on a deeply personal journey, sharing how my own harrowing experience with a narcissistic ex-husband opened my eyes to the insidious nature of this form of domestic abuse.
When I was trapped in that toxic relationship, I thought my ex was simply a "cheat" - but as I delved deeper, I realised the betrayal ran far deeper. The silent treatment he used as a tool of manipulation and control was just one of the many ways he systematically eroded my self-worth and sense of self. By understanding the complexities of behaviours like silent treatment and cheating, we can begin to break free from the cycle of abuse and reclaim our power.
Key topics covered in this episode:
The insidious nature of silent treatment as a tool of narcissistic abuse The impact of narcissistic abuse on one's sense of self-worth and how to heal from it The complexities of cheating and its role in narcissistic relationships Distinguishing between healthy and abusive silenceResources:

In this episode, I explore the importance of addressing trauma and narcissistic abuse not just through traditional talk therapy, but also through somatic and nervous system-based approaches. I am passionate about advocating for a "top-down and bottom-up" approach that combines cognitive processing with healing the body and nervous system.
I share my own journey of discovering these somatic modalities and my frustration at being dismissed by the mainstream mental health system for not having a psychology degree, despite my extensive training and success in helping people heal. I am on a mission to bring more awareness to the need for integrating somatic practices into trauma and abuse recovery.
In this episode, we will explore:
Why you canāt JUST talk about trauma and narcissistic abuse The importance of also feeling, processing, and healing the nervous system My personal experience with traditional talk therapy providing leading me to believe you canāt heal through talking alone My discovery of somatic modalities like EMDR, brain spotting, and breathwork to address the nervous system and bodyResources:
