36: Speaking Up Without Guilt & Navigating Triggers
Welcome to Part 3 of a 4-part series on Reclaiming Your Voice After Narcissistic Abuse. In this soul-stirring episode, Darla Ridilla explores what it truly means to speak up without guilt, and how to navigate the emotional and somatic triggers that come with both using your voice—or staying silent.
This isn’t just about speaking out. It’s about reclaiming power, learning what your body is telling you, and finding safety in your truth—even when others try to shut you down. Darla shares personal reflections, grounding techniques, and scripts you can use to protect your peace while standing in your power.
✨ What you’ll hear in Part 3:
- How guilt and shame block our voices (and how to move through them)
- Why your body’s reactions—tight throat, shaking hands—are valid signals, not failures
- Somatic strategies to self-regulate before and after difficult conversations
- Tools for communicating with narcissists (including how silence can be a response)
- A reminder that your boundaries are not betrayal—they are your birthright
Whether you're still in the fog or finding your way out, this episode offers the clarity and courage you’ve been looking for.
