Episode 17: The power of walking to break the chains of narcissistic abuse

Have you ever felt completely disconnected from your ability to make decisions? In this episode, we explore how narcissistic abuse systematically dismantles our God-given intuition and practical steps to rebuild that trust in yourself. We'll walk through the three-step framework of Recognize (understanding what happened to your decision-making confidence), Recover (practical tools to reconnect with your inner voice), and Redefine (creating your new decision-making process). You'll also discover the fascinating science behind "gut feelings" and how your physical gut health directly impacts your emotional well-being and ability to trust yourself.

This episode is packed with actionable strategies you can start using today, from keeping a "gut check journal" to simple ways to support your gut health that will help you feel more emotionally balanced and clear-headed. Remember, that confident woman who used to make decisions without hesitation is still there - she's just been buried under lies that were never yours to carry. There truly is life after narcissism, and it includes trusting yourself again.
