Lisa A Romano Breakdown to Breakthroughs

In this episode, learn how to tell if a narcissist is lying by watching for these telltale signs! Liars are not always easy to spot due to their chameleon-like behavior; however, if you take the time to step back and gain objectivity, you will notice pervasive patterns that indicate the person you are dealing with has a propensity to lie. Narcissistic personality disorder is not always easy to spot. Covert narcissists manipulate by mirroring your empathy, for example, and without objectivity, you might be pulled in by their charismatic charm or their sob story. Narcissists manipulate others in various ways, such as gaslighting, projection, triangulation, smear campaigns, coercive control, domination, and power. They can also use stonewalling and the silent treatment to exert control over their targets. To learn how to tell if a narcissist is lying, you may want to sit back and observe consistent and pervasive patterns of inconsistencies, lack of integrity, shapeshifting, twisting the truth, devaluing those who challenge them, as well as noting when they are most reactive, which is often associated with when someone dares to challenge a narcissist's version of reality. Narcissists are grandiose in their self perception. They only hang out with those they consider 'special' or unique or with those who bolster their delusions of superiority. Dare to challenge a narcissist about their beliefs of superiority, and you must prepare to be annihilated.

As the child of a narcissistic mother, your subconscious mind has been impressed with concepts, beliefs, and ideas that although helped you survive as a child, may work against your spiritual, mental, and emotional unfolding today. Being raised by a narcissistic mother poses significant risks to one's perception of self, which can taint every area of one's life. Children of narcissistic mothers struggle to honor, love, and respect themselves. They can become stuck in loops of self-sabotaging thinking, feeling, and behaving, leading them to codependent one-way relationships. Depression, anxiety, low self-worth, and a lack of self are just a few of the consequences of being raised by a narcissistic mother. If you have been raised in a toxic family system, if you are the adult child of narcissistic parents, or if you know of an adult child who has come from a dysfunctional childhood home, this episode will shed light on the struggles these adult children face. The good news is, as you awaken and identify toxic family issues, you can liberate yourself from the subconscious patterns, beliefs, and habitual thinking and behaving they have caused. Lisa A.

Grandchildren of alcoholics don't always know their parents are adult children of alcoholics, nor do they appreciate what this means for them. Adult children of alcoholics have been raised feeling ignored, invisible, and in fear due to unpredictable homelife experiences. They generally do not know how to have fun, or how to let go. Feeling such a loss of personal power as children causes them to become rigid in their thinking, which leads to the need for control. Adult children of alcoholics often struggle with needing to be needed, with fixing and rescuing others, which are classic signs of codependency. In this episode, listen in to how Lisa A. Romano helps us understand the importance of recognizing how our parent's childhoods have impacted how they have parented us, and what that means if we discover we too struggle with codependency traits and symptoms.  Ready to heal the abandonment wounds of the past that keep you stuck seeking approval, and living in fear of rejection?

It's not about ignoring or suppressing feelings but finding a healthy way to deal with them, so they don't control us.

In this episode, learn about how trauma bonds interfere with rational thinking and how you can break free of such toxic beliefs so to set yourself free from the bondage of an unhealthy, manipulative, and crazymaking relationship.
