Is it me – Am I The Problem? (S5 Ep.8)
Podcast: Beyond Survival - The Therapy Podcast with Katie McKennaPublished On: Fri May 15 2026
Description: In this solo episode, I dive deep into the fear so many people carry after narcissistic abuse: Is it me – Am I The problem? When you’ve spent years being blamed, criticised, or made responsible for someone else’s behaviour, it’s so common to question yourself deeply. But there’s a huge difference between being human and being narcissistic.In this episode I'll explore how many survivors swing the pendulum completely the other way — becoming so afraid of being selfish, demanding, or “too much” that they stop taking up space altogether. They struggle to say no, change their mind, express needs, or even protest hurtful sarcasm because they fear centring themselves in the way the narcissist did.This episode is about reclaiming healthy space. Learning that you are allowed to have boundaries, opinions, needs, and limits without it making you narcissistic. You have the right to say no, to change your mind, to speak up when something hurts, and to exist fully in your relationships — not through dominance & control, but through self-respect and emotional health.Sign up - Free Masterclass 🎧 The CALM Parent - Podcast ▶️ The CALM Parent - YouTubeBEYOND SURVIVAL - The Therapy Podcast
