    Shadow Work of the People Pleaser: What You Didn't Know

    Shadow Work of the People Pleaser: What You Didn't Know

    Shadow work refers to the journey one takes to make that which is subconscious conscious, so to discover the lost facets of the self for the purpose of a more integrated sense of self and being-ness. In this episode, Breakthrough Life Coach Lisa A. Romano, author of the bestselling books The Road Back to Me, (2012) and the award-winning Codependency Manifesto and Codependent Now What? It's Not You, It's Your Programming delves into the specific shadow work necessary for a codependent people-pleaser. 
    Lisa points out that shadow work is the most profound self-discovery journey anyone can take. It should not be viewed as woo-woo or pseudo-psychology but instead, as an opportunity to more fully integrate the not-so-likable and very likable yet denied facets of the self in order to become more fully self-actualized. 
    Lisa has created several online courses and workbooks to assist with the self-discovery journey, otherwise called shadow work. Download the 21 Day Inner Child Healing Adventure Journaling Program today for only $27 and uncover the lost facets of the self so that you can more fully understand and thus integrate.

    3 BEST Reasons to Going No Contact with a Narcissist

    3 BEST Reasons to Going No Contact with a Narcissist

    Narcissistic abuse is a real thing, and since 90% of the population is considered to be somewhat codependent, it is imperative to find as many empowering and valid reasons to ensure we do not fall prey to emotional manipulators. In this episode, you will find the confidence and encouragement you need to go no contact with those with narcissistic personalities.
    Narcissists exhibit pervasive patterns of antisocial behavior, and according to Lisa A. Romano, if you can remain aware of how their thinking and communicating reveal their lack of empathy and grandiosity, you can initiate and maintain the emotional detachment required to gain the objectivity you need to avoid contact. The clearer you understand their way of communicating and how you, as a wounded adult child and codependent, can become enmeshed and locked in toxic dynamics for a lifetime, the greater your desire and ability will be to stop wasting your precious time! Use Lisa's wisdom to help you find your way back to your authentic self. This episode is full of wisdom and clarity!

    Codependency: Why You Tango With Narcissists

    Codependency: Why You Tango With Narcissists

    Are you stuck in a toxic relationship and can't seem to end it? And do you feel like you are in a one way relationship and no matter how you try to get heard, the person you are dealing with cannot, will not, or refuses to hear you or meet you half way? If you identify as a codependent, you may recognize that it is not easy for you to stand up for yourself, to speak your truth, or to say no. You may take care of others at the expense of yourself, and then feel incredibly wounded when others do not seem to consider your feelings, wants, or needs. 
    You may or may not be aware of how often childhood emotional neglect, parental gaslighting, and being raised by parents who only offer conditional love have conditioned you at the level of the subconscious to seek approval, all while subordinating yourself to others. So if you are an adult child of an alcoholic, narcissist, or were raised in a home that was unpredictable, critical and lacked emotional authenticity, this episode is for you, especially if you are aching to understand why you attract narcissistic people into your life. 
    Ready to breakthrough and start living above the veil as opposed to recreating unhealthy childhood dynamics? If so, begin your Conscious Healing Journey with Lisa A. Romano's 12 Week Breakthrough Coaching Program, designed specifically for the adult child who is ready to find their authentic self, despite a painful past.
