Narcissistic Parents: The Cost Of Being The Emotional Caretaker
If you grew up with a narcissistic parent, you learned early that your job was to manage their emotions not your own. That survival strategy kept you safe then. But it's costing you now.

In this video, you'll learn:

•Why children of narcissistic parents become emotional caretakers and how that role follows you into adult relationships
•How constantly reading a parent's emotional state causes you to disconnect from your own instincts, needs, and inner voice
•Why your feelings felt dangerous growing up, and how that wiring shows up as self-doubt, people-pleasing, and difficulty being alone
•How shame-based responses to mistakes and a tendency to doubt your own reality are rooted in early emotional neglect
•The specific healing skills that help you reconnect with yourself, set healthy limits, and break these patterns for good

Dr. Nicole LePera guides you through the hidden cost of emotional caretaking and what it actually takes to come home to yourself.
