Growing up with a narcissistic parent often leaves lasting confusion about what is normal, what is harmful, and what was never yours to carry in the first place.
This guide offers a clear, clinically grounded overview of narcissistic traits as they commonly appear in family systems. Rather than focusing on labels or diagnoses, it explores patterns of behaviour, relational dynamics, and the emotional impact on children — particularly daughters — who were required to adapt in order to survive.
You may recognise experiences such as emotional inconsistency, conditional approval, boundary violations, or being cast into rigid family roles. Understanding these patterns can help reduce self-blame and bring language to experiences that were previously difficult to name.
This resource is intended to support insight and orientation. It can be read on its own, or alongside the reflective and self-compassion work that follows in this bundle.
A personal note from me to encourage and support you on this journey.
Hi! My name is Amanda, and like you, I grew up with a narcissistic mother. It took me a long time to recognise the problem and begin the healing journey.
Was your mother critical, judgmental, intolerant, or demanding? As an adult, you may have cut your mother out of your life — but for many daughters, her legacy stays with us.
As we mature, we often carry a self-critical inner voice. We may also be perfectionists, judging ourselves harshly when we fail to live up to impossible standards. That’s why self-compassion is such a crucial part of the healing journey for daughters of narcissistic mothers.
Many daughters also live alongside chronic shame, with underlying feelings of worthlessness affecting our relationship with ourselves.
This ebook bundle can help you take those first steps toward a better, more fulfilling life — including practical guidance for navigating parenting after narcissistic patterns.
Let me guide you on your journey to self-compassion, self-worth, and healthier relationships.
Take the first steps in your journey to self-love.
Take the first steps on your pathway to self-love.
