Growing up with a parent with unmanaged borderline personality disorder or strong narcissistic traits means growing up in chaos. Gaslighting makes you question your reality, walking on eggshells keeps your nervous system on high alert, leaving you feeling crazy in a family that insists everything is fine.
In this episode you'll learn:
How clarity about what's really happening in your family lets you make intentional decisions instead of throwing things at the wall
Why making choices based on what someone else says is right for you replicates the exact dynamic you grew up in
The difference between what's actually right for you and what just makes you feel less guilty
How replicable skills, not one-size-fits-all rules, build the confidence that quiets self-doubt and self-gaslighting
