As a fellow adult child of a narcissist, I know first hand what a complete shitstorm this time of year can be. It can be really challenging to keep your boundaries when the manipulation tactics are in full force. It’s important to know what to look out for, and stay grounded in reality when this happens to prevent any disappointment when the cycle of abuse inevitably repeats if you give in to your narc parent’s demands for supply and attention. This is why each year I host a holiday workshop for the family scapegoat. If you want to… ✅ Start setting or stick to your low or no contact boundaries with narcissistic or toxic family members this year ✅ Gain tools to be able to deal with the narcissist at the family dinner if low/no contact isn't possible for you at this time ✅ Learn how to release the emotions of guilt and shame that narcissists use to try and control their targets ✅ Understand how to deal with people who say "FaMiLy iS eVeRyThInG" and have no real understanding that for some people, family is a great source of damage to their sense of self and ability to feel safe in the world But you don’t ❌ Know if you have the courage to set or keep boundaries, and are afraid of a potential smear campaign ❌ Want to waste more time on strategies that don't work ❌ Think it will be as bad this year, maybe the narcissist in your family changed and will keep being nice to you moving forward? ❌ Know where to start or if it's possible to get through the next couple of weeks as un-triggered as possible Then Surviving the Holidays When You're the Family Scapegoat is perfect for you! The workshop is happening LIVE this Friday at 12:00 pm EST (replay access will be available for 90 days if you can’t make it live), so make sure you register before then so you can secure your spot! Register today for only $57 (or included in tier 2 of my community membership!) at the link in my bio!🔥🔥🔥 #Narcissisticmother #daughtersofnarcissisticmothers #adultchildrenofnarcissists #scapegoat #blacksheepofthefamily #blacksheep #manipulators #estranged #motherwound #cyclebreakers #dysfunctionalfamily #narcissisticabuserecovery #redflags #toxicmother #toxicfamily https://www.instagram.com/p/CmbXMX5sRoX/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Molly's Miracle Colonies
Molly is in high school at 12, already has her RN, and wants to be a doctor. Adia showed her a future in which she creates Rainbow Unwell Colony at 15. Leaders of the Alb System believe in her and already created 25 Rainbow Unwell Colonies on 25 worlds. Her skills in healing made Rainbow the hope of 13 war-torn galaxies. Right now, war is still raging and Adia's prophecies saved many worlds. Will Molly have these skills now, at 12? Maybe Binneas' telepathic prowess can help her save lives, and they now remember years of a happy, celibate marriage.

Ben has just recited courtship to Molly with Adia and Ryee there. Deb and Greg are outside Deb's house and her mom is at the mailbox and on her way to join the group. It's early morning before Molly's neighbors would be on the way to work, and Molly, to high school.
Deb hugged him. “Mom, Molly’s got a fella!” Then, she startled. Her hug nearly pulled Greg off his feet. She usually doesn’t hug him, he’s so formal, but he smiled, big! Mrs. Bruce frowned at me. “Aren’t you a little young for that?” I can't tell her that I married him at 16. Stay cool.
I smiled. “Well, I guess I’m a little young to be taking college classes, have my RN and work experience, and go to high school, but hey, Ben is already a diplomat. He’s very smart and he’s only 15, which is a little young to be a diplomat, right?” He went to Sigan Mas at 14 with his best friend, Eap. He’s First Prince, and all of them go to school early and finish four years in one year. How do I know he’s a full diplomat and not an aide? He’s wearing his Challenge Pin. Only diplomats have those. It sparkled like a little blue sun! He’s got a lot of pins, to be so young! Every one is earned, and a symbol of an accomplishment. Ben noticed me looking, and oranged. Zheien are modest to a fault.
Deb is an RN in a BSN/MSN program about to finish, and works in Obstetrics at Grady Hospital.
Mrs. Bruce nodded. “I suppose you’re right. I forget you’re twelve because you sound grown.” Her hair's still brown but getting some silver. I convinced her to let it show. Mom's hair is ruined because of all the dye and perms. She's old-fashioned, Ben, I thought loudly.
He bowed to her with one leg behind and that impressed her. “My father is also a diplomat, and my mother. They taught me, and I attended college abroad to learn Diplomatics and many languages. We represent the Colony of Fhiah. Not many diplomats earn this title at my age. Most are 20 at home, but there, legal age is 16, which I shall be in April on the 12th. Now Molly and I opened a formal Courtship.“ I heard the triple beats of his heart and hoped Deb and her mom didn’t!
“Wow! You sure can pick ‘em, Molly! Classy dresser, too.” She looked over the blue pinstripe suit with vest that he wore, and his sash with many pins laid neatly over it. So handsome! Blond curls and greenish-yellow eyes, but to her, they looked green because of his telepathy. Earthans don’t have neon green eyes!

Sometimes, the bravest thing you can do is say goodbye to toxic family members.
.
Family estrangement is a misunderstood and stigmatized experience that is often exacerbated because it is poorly recognised by society.
When trauma survivors discuss their estrangement with others, they are often met with judgment, gaslighting, and sometimes even victim blaming, adding to the internalized guilt, shame and grief they are already suffering.
.
How to recognise a toxic behavior.
In a toxic family dynamic, you might feel contempt or disdain instead of love. A toxic family member might constantly mock or belittle your choices or attack your vulnerable points.
.
Toxic family behavior can look cruel, critical, abusive, belittling, controlling, and have excessive demands or show a lack of empathy or lack of respect for your boundaries, feelings, and needs. Those who lie, gossip, guilt trip, bully, gaslight, manipulate, or always make themselves out to be a victim are also exhibiting toxic behavior.
.
You may be the black sheep of the family. Black sheep are excluded because they hold different beliefs compared to their relatives or act outside of the social norm. Because black sheep are treated differently than the rest of their family members, they may often feel sad, lonely, or unworthy.
.
You may be the family scapegoat. The person who is blamed for the suffering, wrongdoings, mistakes, or faults of others, to protect the image of the family, avoid responsibility of their own actions or to unite them while abusing a precieved common enemy.
.
Family drama is inevitable and we are all toxic at some point in our life, but the difference is if their actions aren't isolated events, but rather patterns of behavior that consistently negatively impact your life.

In a world of big family gatherings and endless posts showcasing close-knit relationships, it's natural to feel a pang of jealousy when your own family circle is small. Growing up with a limited family presence can leave an ache in your heart, a longing for the kind of bonds that others seem to effortlessly share.
In my own journey, the landscape of family is marked by its smallness. My mom's family, scattered across Canada and Germany, remains distant due to the miles and unmet faces that separate us. On my dad's side, silence prevails, leaving me with no contact and an unfillable void where connections should have been. Jealousy is a persistent companion, whispering doubts and insecurities as I witness others bask in the warmth of large, united gatherings.
Meeting my husband and becoming part of his family brought a glimmer of hope. Hopes that, perhaps, my longing for close family bonds would finally find a place to root itself. But, entering my husband's family wasn't without its challenges.
Fresh out of a second failed marriage for him, and in the midst of a divorce myself, we faced skepticism and guarded hearts. It wasn't a smooth path, but as time gently carved its way forward, some walls came down, replaced by genuine connections.
Ten years ago, I took on the role of stepmother to his two young sons, a role that has become integral to my identity. And while the family connections weren't instant, bonds slowly but surely found their place. The warmth of his family began to seep into my heart, reminding me that family doesn't always come with a predetermined script. In the beginning, I tried so hard to earn their acceptance, unknowingly chasing a sense of belonging that would come naturally in time. Slowly, I realized that the key wasn't in trying to fit a mold, but in embracing my own authentic self. As the years passed and I healed from my personal struggles, the connections deepened, allowing me to forge relationships with his three brothers and one sister (& their spouses).
Though our relationships may not mirror those in storybooks, they're real and significant in their own way. They've filled spaces within my heart that yearned for connections, offering me the feeling of belonging that I had longed for. My in-laws might be a little crazy and sometimes dysfunctional, but their love is undeniable and unconditional. What strikes me most about this family is their unity. They are always willing to drop everything at a moment's notice to support each other, a loyalty that embodies the essence of what family truly means.
So, to my brothers and sisters-in-law, thank you. Thank you for accepting me, for embracing me, and for filling a void I thought could never be filled. You've shown me that family is about support, and genuine connections that grow over time. In you, I've found the aunts and uncles my daughter adores, and the family I've always longed for. The journey continues, and with each passing day, I am grateful for the story of love and belonging that we're creating together.

I said what I said. I'm not saying encouragement isn't important. It is. But when it comes to indie, people put words in your mouth. They try to pretend they know how you feel. They dismiss the experience and wonder how you could be a downer or get into trouble often. And you're all probably thinking I'm not doing anything for my sales or I'm not doing enough to ask my friends and family. I added that info for a reason. Did you know that 98% of them don't care? That I take that other 2% with great pride? It's not a lot, but it's mine. I'm still an author. Mental illness is real. Abusive families exist. Trauma isn't a joke. Words do hurt. They run deep into our subconscious. And by not looking to change the system from the bottom up, our integrity means nothing. Actions change the world, because we've already broken trust. #TraumaSurvivor #DysfunctionalFamily #NarcissisticParent #NarcissisticAbuse #Empaths #PeoplePleaser #GrowingUpAbused #Unkindness #NeverEnough #TurnTheWorldAround #DidYouKnow #WishesDontComeTrue #ThereIsNoHappyEnding #LifeIsADisease #ChooseCarefully #PickYourPoison #HelpOrHinder #TheOppositeOfLoveIsIndifference #SupportLocal #SupportIndie #NoIntimidation #IndieAuthors #WrappedInTheRaysOfTheSun https://www.instagram.com/p/Cp28w0DJDfo/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
