So, in order to empower yourself, it's so important to let go and essentially become your own person, individuate, become your most powerful self and realize that you're the only one who can save you and a healing journey, which is what I offer.
Ever wondered why some abuse victims seem to put their abusers on a pedestal? In this thought-provoking episode of the 'Narcissism Recovery Podcast', Yitz Epstein, a relationship life coach specializing in narcissistic abuse, tackles this perplexing behavior. He explains that narcissistic parents often demand worship from their children, keeping them emotionally stunted to maintain control. This dynamic can lead to codependency, where grown children continue to seek out parental figures to meet their unmet childhood needs.
Yitz emphasizes the necessity of becoming the parent to our own inner child and fulfilling those childhood needs ourselves. He believes that by removing our parents from their idealized pedestal, we can begin to see people as they truly are and become our most powerful, authentic selves. The episode delves into techniques for breaking these psychic cords and fostering healthy interdependence. It's a must-listen for anyone grappling with the aftereffects of narcissistic abuse, codependency, or childhood trauma.
