Ruth's Journey: Rising Above Narcissistic Abuse and Finding Strength

The more I speak out about domestic violence, about narcissism, bullying and self-harm, and mental health, the more and more it makes sense to me and the more and more I can find my true self again.
Ever wondered how someone can rise above the shadows of a difficult past? In this episode of 'That Inner Voice', Jennifer McKenzie sits down with Ruth Cierniak, an educational consultant who has turned her painful experiences into a mission of helping others. Ruth’s story is one of resilience and transformation. Growing up, she faced the emotional turmoil of narcissistic parents, which left lasting scars on her self-esteem and relationships. Despite these challenges, Ruth chose a path of healing and empowerment.
She initially became a Primary School teacher, driven by a desire to ensure no child would feel as she did. However, the journey didn't stop there. In 2018, Ruth made a bold move to leave mainstream education and retrain as a First Aid and Mental Health instructor. This career shift allowed her to combine her expertise with her passion for supporting children and those with additional needs.
Throughout the episode, Jennifer and Ruth delve into the importance of emotional well-being in early education and the holistic approaches that can make a difference. They discuss the cycle of abuse and how one can break free from it, emphasizing the power of speaking out and seeking help. Ruth’s candid sharing about her struggles with people-pleasing and mental health offers valuable insights and practical tips for anyone facing similar battles.
This episode isn't just about overcoming adversity; it's about finding your true self and empowering others along the way. If you're looking for inspiration and practical advice on navigating emotional abuse and fostering mental health in children, this conversation is a must-listen.
