This one is a doozy! You see, in life, many of us are taught that we are powerless. Why? I haven't quite figured out when this became the way to get people to change but it's used in many religions and programs. In order to be healed one must first admit they are powerless. There ARE times in our life where we feel powerless and it's sometimes a good thing to admit it. This is all fine and well but we don't have to stay powerless. In fact, I'm going to encourage you today to move from this space of powerless into a space of powerful. If you are ready to move from powerless to powerful - then this is the episode for you!

Falling in love with a narcissist is intoxicating. They spend a lot of time mirroring the best parts of yourself back to you. You're actually falling in love with many of your own great qualities that you likely have a hard time seeing in yourself. The narcissist spends a lot of time learning what makes you tick and where they can insert themselves and do the most damage. Once you are hooked, then the control and manipulation begins. You become obsessed with trying to get those feelings you once had at the beginning of the relationship where the narcissist made you feel like no one else ever had. You fantasize and hold on to that idea as they gaslight you and make you feel like a crazy person. This is a cycle that will continue until you find the strength to end it. Only YOU can do it and I'm here today to share what happened to me in hopes that it will help you see what you should do for yourself.

I realized this week that sometimes happiness can hurt. You can probably relate to this if you've had a tough life. A person can get used to being stepped on and walked over in their life. So much so that when things start to actually happen for the better, it leaves them with a feeling like the other shoe is about to drop. A sense of impending doom even. Other times you might start to feel pain because you realize that you've lived your life struggling for so long that when things start to go good, it's a tough realization you're met with. On today's episode I share a little about my struggle recently with happiness, well, hurting.
