Description
Part therapy, part stand-up comedy, part "did she really just say that?" From golden child burnout to toxic marriages, frog poison ceremonies to emotional breakthroughs, this is your candid, darkly funny field guide to reclaiming your life from narcissistic chaos.
Escaping the Narcissistic Nest: Your Flight Path to Self-Worth isn't written by a psychologist in a blazer with a bookshelf backdrop. It's written by someone who actually grew up in the chaos -- a golden child in a narcissistic family, with a sister in the permanent role of scapegoat, and a front-row seat to every manipulative trick in the book.
From surviving a narcissistic father to marrying a narcissist (because apparently I thought, why not make this a double feature?), I share the raw, ridiculous, and sometimes downright revolting realities of healing -- including that one time I shit myself during a frog poison ceremony and another when I puked my guts out on Ayahuasca. (Spoiler: spiritual enlightenment is messy.)
This book blends heartfelt storytelling, research-backed insights, and biting humor to help you:
• Recognize the toxic patterns you grew up with
• Understand the emotional roles (hello, golden child and scapegoat)
• Set boundaries that actually stick
• Begin the messy, hilarious, liberating process of healing
If you've ever wondered why your family gatherings feel like emotional war zones, or if you've felt guilty for walking away, this book will help you see you're not crazy -- you were raised in crazy. And you can get out.
Because no matter how dysfunctional your nest, your wings still work.
