My deepest healing couldn't until I accepted one brutal truth: my mother knew she traumatized me.

It was demonstrated throughout my childhood. Moment after moment revealed a woman who could have done better, but didn't. A woman who saw the pain building, and decided to do little. 

Once I accepted that my mother was aware, I was able to accept myself and my childhood in radically transformative ways. You can too, but you may have to swallow one of these 6 hard realities and commit to doing something about it.

What We're Talking About: 

• The line of awareness
• Signs of consciousness
• Confronting the reality

Where do narcissists come from?

They certainly don't exist in a vacuum. So where do they come from? Are they created strictly by trauma? Is it inherited? The answer is a lot more complex than we first believe.

The truth is that narcissism has many layers. Biology is certainly a part of it. Genes play a role and so does neurochemistry. Environment is also a key factor in harboring narcissistic tendencies.

But there's a deeper level to consider: parenting. And that's what we're going to take a look at in this episode. What are the 2 parenting styles that contribute the most to narcissism? Is there anything we can do to change the pattern? Yes.

What We're Talking About: 

• Development of narcissism
• How parenting affects narcissism
• Overcoming narcissistic parenting
