Has your confidence and self-worth been shattered? Do you question if you're to blame for the abuse? Do you feel lost, stuck, and unsure how to move forward? Tired of constantly doubting yourself and wondering if you’ll ever feel whole again?
I’m so glad you’re here! This podcast will help you heal from the effects of narcissistic abuse so you can rebuild your confidence and self-worth and finally experience peace, joy, and emotional stability.
Hey, I’m Tekyia. A mom and survivor of narcissistic abuse. For years, I carried the weight of guilt and shame, feeling like a failure, convinced something was wrong with me. My confidence was gone. My self-worth? Non-existent. And I couldn’t see a way forward. I tried therapy, self-help books, motivational pep talks. But nothing brought real change until I realized that true healing from narcissistic abuse requires both God’s truth and practical tools that restore the mind and emotions, not just surface fixes. Now I’m here to share the truth and tools that bring real healing…the kind that restores your mind, renews your confidence, and anchors your worth in God’s truth. If you’re ready to start living with peace, confidence, and freedom this podcast is for you!
So take a deep breath. You have permission to exhale now. Let’s heal for real.

Are you healing from narcissistic abuse but wondering why it is taking so long? If you have been praying, doing the work and still feel like healing is moving at a pace that makes no sense, this episode is for you. Healing from narcissistic abuse is not slow because something is wrong with you. It is slow because what was done to you ran deep. The abuse rewired the way you think, the way you trust, the way you see yourself...and that kind of damage takes real time to undo. In this episode, I get honest about the frustration of the wait and what God is actually doing underneath the surface while you are in it. I'm taking a closer look at Isaiah 40:31 and what the original Hebrew reveals about waiting on God — and it is nothing like what most of us were taught. I'm also talking about the exchange God makes with you in the waiting season and why the strength and peace that sometimes shows up in your hardest moments is not something you manufactured. If you are somewhere in the healing journey — whether you are just starting, hitting walls, or feeling like you are so close but not quite there, this episode will remind you that you are not behind, you are not doing it wrong and God has not forgotten you. And if you are ready to go even deeper, I would love for you to join me live at my free Restore Your Confidence After Narcissistic Abuse workshop on Tuesday, May 26 :

Tired of setting a boundary and then sitting there wondering if you just made everything worse?
Confused when they don’t explode but something still feels off?
Ever notice how the moment you hold your ground, the energy shifts… and you can’t quite explain why? 🤔
In this episode, I'm talking about what actually happens when you set boundaries with a covert narcissist so you can stay grounded in your healing journey.
If you’ve ever second-guessed yourself after doing something healthy… this is going to help you see clearly again. Because their reaction? It’s not proof you did something wrong. It’s often proof your boundaries are working.

Do you feel guilty every time you set a boundary?
Like maybe you’re not being a “good Christian”… not loving enough… not forgiving enough?
Do you second-guess yourself when you protect your peace or stop explaining yourself to a narcissist?
In this episode, I’m sharing two Bible verses that give you permission to set boundaries so you can stop questioning yourself and start protecting what God told you to protect.
If you’ve ever felt torn between your faith and your healing—especially after narcissistic abuse—this episode will shift how you see boundaries, obedience, and what God actually requires of you.
Because you’re not being un-Christian… you may have just been taught wrong.
