Ep 24 - Motherhood after Narcissistic Abuse

Welcome back to another episode of the Healing Mothers’ Club! In today's episode, we kick off a special mini series where we deep dive into what it's like to do motherhood as a narcissistic abuse survivor.

As always this episode is meant for educational and entertainment purposes only and is not meant to replace a mental health assessment or psychotherapy provided by a licensed health professional.


Key Points Discussed:

  • What narcissism is according to Dr. Ramani;
  • We briefly touch on Danik's experience as the granddaughter of a covert narcissist;
  • How narcissism abuse from parents shapes the nervous system of their children (and grandchildren), and has lasting impacts in adulthood;
  • What needs to happen in order to break the cycle;
  • How to start visualize your future relationship with the parent presenting with symptoms of narcissism in your life (boundaries or no-contact).

Offered until September 9th, 2024 ONLY. Your first step towards cycle breaking parenting is here.

About the Podcast

Healing Mothers' Club
Parenting After Childhood Trauma | Inner Child Healing | Nervous System Regulation
This is the space where we learn to parent our kids AND ourselves after childhood trauma so we can stop being held back by the stories our nervous systems have stored. It’s time to live a full, authentic live – free of toxic patterns holding us back. In this podcast, we learn how to mother others and how to mother ourselves. We’re all healing moms – whether you’re a mom to humans wanting to break the cycle of trauma in the family you’ve created, or a human in need of self-mothering to regulate your nervous system so you can stop the self-sabotage cycle – we’re all part of the same club. I invite you to join me, Danik Bernier, host of this podcast, healing mom, EMDR Certified therapist and Nervous System Coach on this journey towards trauma liberation and nervous system regulation. You can also find me on Instagram, @danikhelpsmoms. Check out the show notes for the link for a FREE coaching consultation.
