DR. Jekyll and Mrs. Hyde I am Not!

Join Erin and her guests, as they delve into what it means to be a child of a narcissistic parent.  Each fortnightly episode is crammed full of honesty, humour and hope.

My birth family has never met me. 

I can hear you saying, “What do you mean? You talk about them on every episode.” Let me clarify.

My birth family have never met the REAL me.

I wasn’t playing roles, nor was I incognito. I have only ever been myself - living my truth and being authentic - but, for some inexplicable reason, they were(and are) unable to see me for who I really am.

I tried to belong. I desperately wanted to be a part of the family. I hung on for too many years, mainly due to the fear of losing my birth family. But, I have realised something that has completely changed my way of thinking.

I didn’t LOSE my family. I never HAD them.

I don’t know why my birth family sees/knows one version of me, whilst my chosen family sees/knows a very different version of me.

However, I DO know which one is the REAL me and that is all that matters.
