You finally left. The narcissist is no longer in your life — but the emotional chaos still is.

In this powerful episode of Real Talk: Divorce, Life & Everything In-Between, hosts Lorene Roberts (Holistic Counsellor & Root-Cause Therapist) and Richard Morden (Divorce Coach & Emotional Resilience Practitioner) dive deep into the often-overlooked fallout of narcissistic relationships — what happens after the breakup, when the gaslighting stops but the self-doubt lingers.

Because here’s the truth: just leaving isn’t the finish line.
 It’s the start of your healing journey — and it can feel overwhelming, lonely, and confusing.

🎙️ In this episode, we talk about:

  • What really happens after the narcissist is gone (hint: the damage doesn’t just disappear)
  • Why so many survivors struggle with identity loss, emotional flashbacks, and self-blame
  • How narcissists condition you to doubt yourself — even long after they’re out of your life
  • The practical and emotional fallout: finances, friendships, family fractures
  • The grief no one talks about — including mourning the person you thought they were
  • And why it’s totally normal to feel broken — but you’re not

🛠️ We also explore solutions like:

  • How to gently reclaim your sense of self
  • Using therapy, journaling, and trauma-informed tools to reconnect with your worth
  • Ways to rebuild trust — in yourself and in others
  • Simple steps for nervous system regulation when your world feels unsafe
  • The importance of community, boundaries, and compassion during recovery

💬 Real Talk Moments:  Lorene and Richard share personal experiences, mistakes made, lessons learned, and the things they wish someone had told them during the aftermath. It’s raw, real, and filled with hard-earned wisdom.

If you’ve ever asked yourself: “Why do I still feel like this?”
This episode is for you.

You’re not alone.
 You’re not crazy.
 And you’re not broken — you’re healing.
