Growing up with narcissistic parents means inheriting a distorted reflection of yourself—one that conditions you to believe you’re never enough, never loveable, never worthy. In this episode, I discuss how that conditioning took root, how it bled into every part of my life, and how I began the long process of unlearning worthlessness. Listen to reclaim your voice, rewrite your patterns, and find your value within instead of seeking external validation.
Listen until the end for a journaling exercise to rewrite your programming (write down the 5 things mentioned and challenge each one).
Comment if you suffered a narcissistic parent and want to improve your self-worth!
