Episode #9

Recovery From Narcissistic Abuse and Cults

Exploitative control dynamics exist at all levels in our culture – between individuals and across organisations. Everyone is affected by them whether or not they realise. So whether you’ve had an encounter with a narcissist, exploited at work or joined a group that turned out to be a cult, you are in the majority. But recognising it as such, overcoming it and leveraging the experience for growth – that is unusual.

In this episode I discuss the exit and recovery process – whether from an abusive relationship, an exploitative cult or a toxic workplace. As usual this involves personal responsibility, gaining insight and seeing the situation as it really is. As part of this I also discuss the Five Phases of Codependency, how to make an exit plan, and Jungian Shadow Work.
