44 | Are You Relating to God Like He's a Narcissist? - What Covert Narcissistic Abuse Does to Your Faith

Do you ever feel like you have to keep it together before God — like the real version of what you feel is too risky to actually say? After narcissistic abuse, do you find yourself bracing for God's disapproval punishment when things go wrong? What if the way you relate to God has been quietly shaped by everything the narcissist taught you about how people with power behave? This is an awareness episode — no to-do list, just a mirror. I share one of the harder seasons of my healing journey: navigating a court situation with the narcissist, depending on God completely, and realising I was secretly performing for His approval, bracing for punishment when things did not go my way, and terrified that He would expose my shortcomings the way the narcissist did. One question brought it all to the surface. If you are healing from covert narcissistic abuse and struggling to trust God again, I pray that this episode will be a blessing to you. The patterns of narcissistic abuse — conditional love, fear of honesty, performing for approval, expecting the worst — do not stay in the relationship. They follow you into your relationship with God too. And awareness is always where healing begins.

43 | Sick of Hiding Your Pain? Do This To Grieve and Heal After Narcissistic Abuse

Are you a narcissistic abuse survivor who knows you need to grieve but you have no idea where to actually start? Have you been keeping it together before God — bringing the cleaned-up version of your pain — because the real version has felt like too much? What if emotional healing after narcissistic abuse started with the most honest prayer you have ever prayed? Today I am introducing you to lament — sacred sorrow — a grief practice that has been sitting in Scripture this whole time that most of us were never taught. I share the moment I found it, why Psalm 109 almost made me close the Bible, and what happened when I finally wrote my own lament — the anger, the tears, writing so hard I almost tore the page, and what came through on the other side. If you are a narcissistic abuse survivor on a healing journey and you have been stuffing your pain because bringing the real version to God felt like a lack of faith — this episode is going to give you some clarity. Emotional healing after narcissistic abuse and restoring your self-worth requires more than managing your pain. It requires being honest about it.  Connect With Tekyia💛 → Narcissism Unmasked Community [https://bit.ly/narcissismunmasked] → Become An Insider [https://bit.ly/confidenceinsiders] → Book A Coaching Call [https://tidycal.com/coachingcall/onehour] Email 📩 → admin@growingthroughpains.com [admin@growingthroughpains.com]   Next Steps: Step 1: Join a supportive community of women who are ready to heal from narcissistic abuse in the free Narcissism Unmasked Community [https://bit.ly/narcissismunmasked] Step 2: Share this episode with a woman who needs this truth--you never know who’s quietly struggling  Step 3: Leave a quick review on Apple Podcasts [https://podcasts.apple.com/bb/podcast/confidence-after-narcissistic-abuse-covert-narcissist/id1856589890] — it helps other survivors find this podcast when they need it most.

42 | You're Not Broken - THIS Is The Missing Piece in Narcissistic Abuse Recovery

Are you healing from narcissistic abuse but still carrying a heaviness you cannot explain? Have you been stuffing the pain and pushing through, only to find it keeps surfacing anyway? Healing from narcissistic abuse takes more than awareness and setting boundaries; it requires grieving what was actually lost. In this episode, I get honest about something I am personally still sitting with: the grief of unmet expectation and repeated disappointment. Grief is not just for death. It is the natural response to any significant loss and after covert narcissistic abuse, there is so much that deserves to be mourned.  Connect With Tekyia💛 → Narcissism Unmasked Community [https://bit.ly/narcissismunmasked] → Become An Insider [https://bit.ly/confidenceinsiders] → Book A Coaching Call [https://tidycal.com/coachingcall/onehour] Email 📩 → admin@growingthroughpains.com [admin@growingthroughpains.com]   Next Steps: Step 1: Join a supportive community of women who are ready to heal from narcissistic abuse in the free Narcissism Unmasked Community [https://bit.ly/narcissismunmasked] Step 2: Share this episode with a woman who needs this truth--you never know who’s quietly struggling  Step 3: Leave a quick review on Apple Podcasts [https://podcasts.apple.com/bb/podcast/confidence-after-narcissistic-abuse-covert-narcissist/id1856589890] — it helps other survivors find this podcast when they need it most.

41 | Trying Harder Will Not Heal Your Nervous System After Narcissistic Abuse — THIS Will

Are you healing from narcissistic abuse but your body still does not feel like it got the message? Still braced, still hypervigilant, still exhausted in a way that rest does not seem to touch? Still waiting for something to go wrong even when everything is actually okay?   Healing the nervous system after narcissistic abuse is not about deciding to calm down or pushing through the anxiety. It requires something far more specific and in this episode I am talking about what that actually is. If you are a narcissistic abuse survivor or healing from a toxic relationship and you are ready to understand what your body actually needs to heal from trauma and chronic stress, this one is going to bring you real clarity and some much needed compassion for yourself.

40 | The Hidden Evidence That You Are Healing From Narcissistic Abuse Even When It Doesn't Feel Like It

Have you ever felt like you were going backwards in your healing even after everything you have been through to get out? Have you ever been in a season so hard that you genuinely wondered if the healing was even working? Have you ever looked around at your life and not been able to see any evidence of how far you have actually come?   In this episode I get really personal about one of the hardest seasons of my healing journey — navigating legal abuse after narcissistic abuse, carrying what I knew alone while people around me could only see the surface and wondering in the middle of all of it whether I was regressing. This one is for the woman who is in the deep layers of her healing and needs to be reminded that what feels like going backwards might actually be the healing going deeper. And that God knows exactly what He is doing — even when you cannot see it yet.  Save your seat for Restore Your Confidence After Narcissistic Abuse Workshop Happening on Tuesday, May 26 at 7 PM ET → www.growingthroughpains.com/workshop [http://www.growingthroughpains.com/workshop]   Connect With Me💛 → Narcissism Unmasked Community [https://bit.ly/narcissismunmasked] → Become An Insider [https://bit.ly/confidenceinsiders] → Book A Coaching Call [https://tidycal.com/coachingcall/onehour] Email 📩 → admin@growingthroughpains.com [admin@growingthroughpains.com]   Next Steps: Step 1: Join a supportive community of women who are ready to heal from narcissistic abuse in the free Narcissism Unmasked Community [https://bit.ly/narcissismunmasked] Step 2: Share this episode with a woman who needs this truth--you never know who’s quietly struggling  Step 3: Leave a quick review on Apple Podcasts [https://podcasts.apple.com/bb/podcast/confidence-after-narcissistic-abuse-covert-narcissist/id1856589890] — it helps other survivors find this podcast when they need it most.
