248: Identifying and Healing from Narcissistic and Sexual Abuse with Meredith Miller
Narcissistic abuse is, I believe, one of the most toxic experiences out there. While NO kind of abuse is ok, narcissists can be extremely subtle, sneaky and manipulative, making them difficult to spot. Anyone who has been in a relationship with one knows how confusing and damaging it can be. My guest today, Meredith Miller, is a holistic coach who helps people heal themselves from narcissistic abuse and toxic relationships. After experiencing abuse from a narcissistic parent for nearly 38 years, she has a deep understanding of a narcissist’s traits, how to rebuild a sense of self and how to turn the experience into an opportunity for healing and growth. Meredith shares her own story of abuse and healing, and we talk about SO many important topics, from what narcissistic abuse is to the myths around abuse and how to start healing. Listen to discover: How to identify abuse (and steps to take to get out) Navigating toxic families and people Tools for healing trauma Setting boundaries and reprogramming the subconscious mind How to navigate narcissistic partners as a parent How to go “no contact” (if that’s right for you) There is SO much incredible information packed into this hour! Meredith truly gets it, and I’m so grateful for the gift of her time and expertise in helping the world recognize and transform the effects of abuse. “You can’t share your hopes and dreams with toxic people.” - Meredith Miller “It’s so important that we stop, pause, work on our own healing and transform those programs.” - Michelle Chalfant “The trauma awakens you to this whole new potential...we start to discover the parts of ourselves that weren’t hurt.” - Meredith Miller “When you give explanations for boundaries, toxic people just see that as points to keep negotiating with you on.” - Meredith Miller Resources Meredith Miller Website https://www.innerintegration.com/ Meredith Miller Podcast https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/inner-integration-podcast/id1418633395 Meredith Miller YouTube https://www.youtube.com/innerintegration Meredith Miller Instagram https://www.instagram.com/inner_integration/ Meredith Miller Facebook https://www.facebook.com/InnerIntegration/ The Adult Chair Membership: $1 offer Use promo code “ANITA” to try your first month for $1 February Theme = “I Love.” https://theadultchair.com/membership/ TAC Circles https://theadultchair.com/taccircles/ (Previously “TAC Gatherings”) Episode #179: I’m in a Relationship with a Narcissist https://theadultchair.com/podcasts/179/ Episode #196: Spotting Covert Narcissism https://theadultchair.com/podcasts/196/ Episode #207: The Narcissism and Codependency Connection with Ross Rosenberg https://theadultchair.com/podcasts/207-the-narcissism-and-codependency-connection-with-ross-rosenberg/ More Adult Chair The Adult Chair Website https://theadultchair.com The Adult Chair Membership https://theadultchair.com/membership/ The Adult Chair Workshop https://theadultchair.com/events/ The Adult Chair Coaching Certification https://theadultchair.com/certification-program/ TAC Circles https://theadultchair.com/taccircles/ (Previously “TAC Gatherings”) Stay Connected Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/michelle.chalfant Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/MichelleChalfantFanPage/ The Adult Chair Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/theadultchair/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/Michellechalfant *** EPISODE CREDITS: If you like this podcast and are thinking of creating your own, consider talking to my producer, Danny Ozment.
