Breaking the Cycle Is Complicated: Here’s a Roadmap
You're Not Crazy: A Podcast for the Adult Children of Parents with Borderline and Narcissistic Personality Disorders
If you grew up with a parent who had narcissistic or borderline traits, chances are no one ever showed you what being an emotionally healthy adult actually looks like.
In this episode, I’m breaking down why healing feels so confusing, messy, and unclear and what you actually need in order to move forward.
We’re talking about:
-
Why “I don’t want to be like them” isn’t enough to create healthy change
The skills cycle breakers were never taught growing up
How dysfunctional family systems create blind spots
What it actually takes to break the cycle
