In this episode of Permission to Bloom, we’re exploring both sides of narcissistic abuse: the common signs you may notice in someone with narcissistic traits, and the emotional symptoms you may experience as the person on the receiving end. We’ll talk about behaviors like gaslighting, blame-shifting, control, lack of empathy, and the charming mask narcissistic people often wear — as well as the confusion, anxiety, self-doubt, guilt, and exhaustion victims may feel over time. This episode is here to bring clarity, validation, and a gentle reminder that recognizing the pattern is often the first step toward healing.
