Healing is an ongoing process, and people still don't understand. As much as I educate my husband and my children around this, unless you've experienced it firsthand, you can't fully understand it. That's why I will never stop doing this. I'll keep doing the podcast, my YouTube, my Instagram, my Facebook, my courses, my programs, because I want you to know that there is hope and you can live an amazing life and move from post-traumatic stress to post-traumatic growth after narcissistic abuse as well.
