About this episode
The question I get asked lots of times is - why does the narcissist do this to me? What have I ever done? I'm a nice person. I'm gonna get real with you in this episode and explain this in two parts. Let’s dive in.
What You Will Learn in This Episode:
- How we create false reasons for why the narcissist treats us the way they do
- The triangle in Internal Family Systems - True Self, Exile, Protector
- How Exile and Protector parts show up in both narcissist and yourself
- How you become a magnet for a narcissist
- How you can flip the question and ask yourself why you are allowing a narcissist to do that to you
Your power is not trying to change a narcissist, but recognise what it is about you that makes you feel the way that you do and attract people like that into your life. Because when you change that, you change everything.
