Financial Abuse & Narcissism

Financial Abuse & Narcissism

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2534370/fan_mail/new] Financial abuse is a common tactic used by Narcissists. Limiting funds, preventing you from working, hiding money or nitpicking your spending are all ways that abusers use money to control you. Financial independence is empowering and therefore something the Narcissist fears you having. Narcissists  will seek to control you through money and they will also use money to make you feel worthless. Healing comes from realizing your worth is inherent. The Abuser and the size of your bank account do not define your worth. #abuseawareness #divorce #narcissisticabuse #emotionalabuse  https://www.thefreewomanpodcast.com/ [https://www.thefreewomanpodcast.com/]

Dissociation & Narcissistic Abuse

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2534370/fan_mail/new] Dissociation is a protective and involuntary disconnection from reality. Victims of narcissistic abuse dissociate as a survival mechanism. It helps the mind survive what would otherwise break it. But like any other coping mechanism dissociation can become prohibitive. We must learn to face reality so that we can create true safety. In this episode Jayenna and Cat share their personal experiences with dissociation and the tools that have helped them heal and come into reality. As always, be patient with yourself. Healing is a journey, not a destination. #dissociation #emotionalabuse #divorce #freewoman #narcisist https://www.thefreewomanpodcast.com/ [https://www.thefreewomanpodcast.com/]

Love is Blind ... NOT

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2534370/fan_mail/new] Love is NOT blind. It goes in with eyes open, fully in reality. Going into a serious relationship blindly is a recipe for ABUSE. Taking the blind leap of faith might seem romantic from afar but up close leads to pain, trauma and drama when reality finally shows up. The show, "Love is Blind," is a great example of all of the things not to do when seeking love.
