Mother Mayhem: For Daughters of Narcissistic or Emotionally Limited Mothers

81. Do I Have to Hate My Narcissistic Mother in Order to Heal?


Listen Later

In today’s episode, we dive into one of the toughest questions many daughters of narcissistic mothers face: Do I need to hate my narcissistic mother in order to heal?

It’s a question that comes with a lot of layers—shame, guilt, anger, and confusion. But the truth is, healing doesn’t have to be built on hatred or resentment. It’s about finding your own path to peace and recognizing the power you have to move beyond the trauma.

Whether you’re struggling with the weight of your mother’s behavior or wondering how to move forward in your own healing, this episode will help you reframe your relationship with your past and find new ways of looking at your future.
