    215. Can You Find Love After Divorcing a Narcissist? Success Stories and Insights

    In this podcast, I tackle a powerful viewer question: “Do you know of anyone who, after divorcing a narcissistic spouse, went on to remarry, build a new family, and live a healthy life?” This is such an important topic, and the short answer is: YES, it’s possible—but it takes work. I’ll share key insights into what’s required to break the cycle of toxic relationships, including: ✔️ Doing the inner work to heal and grow. ✔️ Setting and maintaining firm boundaries. ✔️ Learning to trust your gut and recognize red flags. ✔️ How healthy relationships can feel “off” at first due to past trauma. I also share inspiring stories, including insights from Eric Carroll (Dad Talk Today) and my own experiences, to show you that healthy love is attainable after narcissistic abuse. 💬 Have you remarried or entered a healthy relationship after a toxic one?
