I've dedicated my life to understanding and overcoming the devastating effects of narcissistic abuse. In this episode, I take you on a deeply personal journey, sharing how my own harrowing experience with a narcissistic ex-husband opened my eyes to the insidious nature of this form of domestic abuse.

When I was trapped in that toxic relationship, I thought my ex was simply a "cheat" - but as I delved deeper, I realised the betrayal ran far deeper. The silent treatment he used as a tool of manipulation and control was just one of the many ways he systematically eroded my self-worth and sense of self. By understanding the complexities of behaviours like silent treatment and cheating, we can begin to break free from the cycle of abuse and reclaim our power.

Key topics covered in this episode:

• The insidious nature of silent treatment as a tool of narcissistic abuse
• The impact of narcissistic abuse on one's sense of self-worth and how to heal from it
• The complexities of cheating and its role in narcissistic relationships
• Distinguishing between healthy and abusive silence
