    • Self-Improvement

What Are We Discussing In This Episode?
In this episode, we focus on the complex sibling relationships within a narcissistic family dynamic: 

How should I approach/explain to my sibling who thinks that our family is totally healthy, that our parent is narcissistic and that our upbringing wasn't healthy? (01:06)

 How can I work through my anger and resentment towards my sibling who was the golden child in our narcissistic family of origin? (15:04)

How can I approach my sibling who has been treated differently and unfairly by our narcissistic parent (they were the scapegoat and I was the golden child) and to improve our relationship? We are now adults and do not live at home anymore but we are not that close. (19:49)

Can a sibling relationship impacted by a narcissistic parent be repaired, and what are some factors that may influence the potential for healing and growth in this situation? (25:22)

What are some factors that may indicate that the relationship with a sibling cannot be repaired? (28:20)
