To thrive after narcissistic abuse, you will need to change your entire mindset toward narcissistic people in your life. The key to maintaining your sanity is not to take their attempts at baiting you into circular conversations where they get to act out their need to persecute others with self-righteous indignation. If you confuse love with guilt and obligation, and especially if you have high empathy and struggle to end toxic relationships due to abandonment issues, letting go can trigger complex trauma symptoms such as a burning brain, heart palpitations, brain fog, mental confusion, and emotional paralysis.

One of the most difficult things in the world to accept is that sometimes the people you love are built to not hear you, although their words may say otherwise. When dealing with a high-conflict person, you will notice that they escalate drama, problems, and issues in relationships instead of de-escalating them. Narcissists need flying monkeys, and the more they have, the more emboldened they are to attack, confuse, persecute, vilify, diminish, and discard you or any feelings or opinions you have.

In this episode, Lisa A. Romano, Breakthrough Life Coach, explains why changing your mindset toward the narcissistic people in your life can preserve your sanity, no matter how tough it might be to accept and let go.

What is your peace of mind worth to you? If you are ready to take the journey within to heal the core issues that result in you're being entangled in narcissistic relationships, join Lisa and her team of seasoned life coaches this July for The 12 Week Breakthrough Journey back to the divine self.

When it comes to narcissism, there are physical signs that help you spot narcissistic behavior sooner rather than later. Narcissists often reveal their true nature through their eyes—cold, unfeeling, and devoid of empathy. This chilling stare is a red flag, signaling a lack of emotional connection and a potential for manipulation.

According to FBI profilers, such individuals prey on those with high empathy, low self-worth, and a strong desire to please. Codependents, in particular, may overlook these warning signs due to blurred boundaries and a history of emotional neglect.​

The best way to stop focusing and ruminating about narcissists in your life is to close your eyes and fall in love with the self. Ancient Persian Philosopher Rumi is an excellent example of how to break up with, let go of, divorce, and go no contact with narcissists in your life. In this lesson, you will learn what Rumi has to say about releasing narcissists from your life, and why doing so is terrifying yet brings emotional freedom at the same time.

Healing from narcissistic abuse, requires that you release resistance to the pain manipulation, gaslighting, triangulation, smear campaigns and discard have created. Through radical self awareness, and acceptance, we discover the power of sacred wisdom as it pertains to choosing nonresistance. A narcissist will never follow you into solitude. When you embrace solitude, narcissists will run away because in solitude their masks fall. And that's why you must travel into the silence within. Codependency is akin to spiritual death. It implies you are living in denial of what is, and running from reality. The answer lies in climbing the ladder of the mind, from the subconscious to the higher conscious realms. But first, we must figure out where you are now and at what level of awareness do you reside.

The most dangerous people in our lives are not strangers, they are people we know and love. For a child, the most dangerous people are their parents and step-parents, and for adults, the most dangerous people in their lives tend to be their partners. In this eye opening podcast, you will learn about the statistics that suggest that while we teach children about stranger danger, w are neglecting to fully comprehend the totality of the abuse that occurs simply because adults have access to powerless children.

This is not to suggest that all parents and all step-parents are abusive; however, statistically speaking, one of the contributing factors to child abuse and neglect tends to be associated with a nonbiological step-parent.

This podcast comes with a trigger warning, because it speaks the truth, a truth that many may not be ready to accept has occurred to them, a truth that a parent may not be ready to face about their choice in a spouse that had access to their children, or it may sting the eye of the one who has neglected and abused a child, or spouse.

The intention of this conversation is to fully acknowledge what is statistically true, so that we can all become more aware and responsible for who has access to our children, in addition to becoming more conscious of the fact that our partners are the most dangerous people in our adult lives. It's not the guy hanging out on the street corner at 3:00 am we need to worry about. It's those we love who may associate love with control, dominance, and power. Once we become entangled with them, we need to be more cognizant of the quality of the relationships we engage in.

If you're codependent, you are at great risk for becoming entangled in toxic relationships dynamics and that is not your fault.

Breakthrough with me here, with the 12 Week Breakthrough Coaching Program.

In this podcast, learn about the codependent communication struggles no one talks about. In codependency, the focus is usually on keeping the peace, avoiding conflict, and managing someone else's emotions, at the expense of your own truth. This makes authentic communication feel dangerous, especially if you grew up in a toxic environment where speaking up led to punishment, rejection, or emotional withdrawal.

Poor communication is one of the defining features of toxic relationships, especially when one or both partners are codependent. Rather than say what they mean, codependent people tend to hint, people-please, or stuff their emotions down to avoid being abandoned. Over time, this leads to resentment, confusion, and emotional disconnection. Without clear, honest communication, even the strongest connection can break down under the weight of unspoken expectations and unmet needs. Healing from codependency means learning how to communicate with clarity, courage, and compassion. It requires unlearning the belief that your needs don’t matter and developing the inner safety to speak your truth.

Whether you're in recovery from a toxic relationship or just starting to recognize codependent patterns in your life, learning how to communicate effectively is essential if you want to build real intimacy and self-respect. The first step, is telling the truth, and learning to take accountability for poor communication skills, while understanding with self compassion, it could literally be no other way.

Today, if this resonates with you, you have a shot at healing your life by unlearning the survival patterns that kept you feeling safe, that also kept you stuck repeating the faulty patterns from the past. Are you codependent? If so, you probably have an insecure, anxious attachment style, and the good news is, we can fix that!

Calling all serious, ready, willing and able souls who have the time and can invest in themselves at this time to finally take their lives back.

💥 12 Week Breakthrough Codependency Program starts July 13. The first lesson will be delivered to members library on July 13th, and our first live group call will be on Saturday July 19th. It is an honor to help you breakthrough codependency, reparent and heal your inner child and find your authentic self.

Socrates once said,“The secret of change is to focus all of your energy not on fighting the old, but building the new.” If you've ever wondered how long it might take you to heal from narcissistic abuse, emotional neglect, codependency, or even addiction issues, you're in the right place. When emotionally, financially, and spiritually abused, the amygdala takes over and life can become minuscule. All we can focus on, when being abused, persecuted, judged or gaslit, is the moment. And although this is a sacred design created to help us avoid threat and harm, the human brain can become stuck in fight or flight.

In this episode, Lisa A. Romano, a Breakthrough Life Coach, uncovers a simple yet profound mindset shift that can help you heal sooner rather than later. As a survivor of narcissistic abuse and an adult child of two unrecovered, emotionally abusive, and neglectful alcoholic parents, Lisa has relied on self-discovery work focused on healing at the subconscious level, compassionately embracing her inner child every step of the way to become an international advocate for adult children everywhere. Her research and nearly 30 years of self-healing work have established her as a prominent global voice in mental wellness, personal healing, and transformation.

Begin your healing and transformation journey with Lisa's groundbreaking approach, which is grounded in the latest trauma research, neuroscience, and cognitive science.

In this episode, you will explore 10 distinct forms of narcissistic manipulation tactics and the true agenda of a narcissist with whom you must engage, communicate, parent, and resolve issues. Those who display narcissistic traits often do not recognize themselves as narcissists. Instead, they tend to hold on to their grand illusions of themselves or see themselves as the victims of others. When they are up, it is because they believe others see them as the best, smartest, most beautiful, creative or talented. When they are down, that is because they feel victimized by evidence that someone, maybe you, no longer feed into their grand illusions of themselves.

Lisa A. Romano Breakthrough Life Coach, Award winning author, meditation teacher, course creator, and podcast host, is on a mission to awaken those who live below the veil of consciousness, and who are in toxic, enmeshed, codependent, subjugating relationships with those who are either narcissists, or who have high narcissistic traits. As an adult daughter of narcissistic and codependent parents, and as someone who escaped the undertow of a toxic marriage herself, she understands that the first step in healing from a narcissistic relationship is recognizing the signs that you are actually in a narcissistic relationship.
