Welcome to the very first episode of The Reclamation Room — a space for women healing after narcissistic abuse, learning to trust themselves again, and reclaiming the parts of them that were never truly lost.
In this opening episode, I share a bit of my own story and why this podcast exists. If you've ever felt silenced, invisible, or like you’re only just beginning to figure out who you really are — this one’s for you.
In this episode, I talk about:
What “reclamation” really means (and why it’s different from just surviving)
The impact of narcissistic abuse on identity and self-trust
Why I’m choosing to speak now — and invite you to do the same
What you can expect from future episodes (raw truths, real talk, no filters)
