A hundred conversations. A hundred chances to tell the truth. A hundred reminders that healing is possible—even when it’s messy, slow, and still unfinished.

In this episode, we’re not breaking anything down. We’re building something up. Together.

You’ll hear two powerful stories from daughters who’ve done the hard work of healing, of making peace with who they were, so they could become who they are.

These aren’t just feel-good stories. They’re proof. That the work works. That you're not alone. That your story matters.

Whether you’ve been here since Episode 1 or just found your way in, this one is for you.

For every daughter who’s listened quietly. For every daughter who’s whispered, “me too.” For every daughter building a life by her own design. Thank you.

Here’s to the next hundred.

What happens when going no contact with your narcissistic or emotionally abusive mother means losing more than just the relationship with her?

In this powerful follow-up to Episode 92, we hear from Coraline—a daughter who’s already done the impossible: named the abuse, broken the cycle, and chosen to protect her peace. But what happens when that decision triggers suicide threats, family pressure, and the fear of losing connection with your father or siblings?

In this episode of Mother Mayhem, we explore:

• How narcissistic mothers use guilt, threats, and emotional blackmail to collapse your boundaries

• What to do when your mother says she’ll kill herself if you cut contact

• How to respond to family members who pressure you to "keep the peace"

• The difference between being compassionate and being complicit

• Scripts and mindset shifts to help you hold the line—even when it’s painful

• Why no contact is not the end of your healing—but the beginning of your reclaiming

If you’ve ever felt trapped between your own well-being and your family’s expectations, this episode is for you.

Have you ever been called ungrateful, selfish, or disloyal by your mother just for setting a boundary, speaking your truth, or simply because you exist?

In this episode of Mother Mayhem, we’re talking about what happens when a narcissistic or emotionally limited mother turns the tables and calls you the problem.

Whether she accuses you of betrayal, labels your healing as disloyalty, or punishes you for pulling away, the pain of these attacks runs deep and can leave daughters drowning in guilt, confusion, and shame.

We’ll unpack:

• Why narcissistic mothers often accuse their daughters of being ungrateful or selfish

• How emotional abuse and gaslighting distort your reality and erode your self-trust

• What it really means when a mother can’t love, not because she won’t, but because she’s emotionally incapable

• The difference between actual selfishness and the healthy self-protection daughters are entitled to

• How to anchor into your wise mind when trauma brain tells you to go back and fix it

  You are not the problem and in this episode, you’ll learn how to start believing that.
