Summary

Today’s episode is this month's "Ask Me Anything" where I get to answer the questions you’ve been sending in! In the AMA section of this episode, I discuss topics ranging from discovering a more definitive way of diagnosing a narcissist to how trauma can build up and eventually turn a person into a narcissist. I’ll also discuss why a narcissist will never apologise and take ownership of their actions and my stories of how my narcissistic ex-husband gained narcissistic supply by showing fake empathy.

If you’re listening to this at the start of November ‘22, make sure you join my FREE "Inside The Mindset of a Narcissist" Masterclass on Sunday, 6th November! You can sign up here: https://go.carolinestrawson.com/masterclass

Questions in this episode include:

Am I the narcissist?
Why does a narcissist never apologise?
If someone shows empathy, does this mean they can't be a narcissist?

My aim for these episodes is to make sure I’m discussing topics that directly impact you, so I hope my answers help you in a strong recovery from narcissistic abuse. Every first Tuesday of each month is an "Ask Me Anything" episode, so please send in your questions to [email protected] where we will endeavor to answer them either in these Ask Me Anything episodes or as a topic for a full episode!

0:00.0	Welcome to the narcissistic trauma recovery podcast. I'm Caroline Strawson and I'll be sharing with you
0:09.6	awareness, understanding and education about the devastating effects of narcissistic abuse to help you thrive.
0:16.5	I want you to know that I've been exactly where you are and I believe you. And this show is all
0:22.8	about taking you from trauma to transformation. Hey, my friends. How are you in a massive welcome
0:31.3	to the narcissistic trauma recovery podcast? My voice is back to normal. Yay. For those of you who've listened to my podcast over the
0:41.3	last few weeks, particularly the last one, you will have done. I was very croaky because the
0:46.4	dreaded sea had finally caught up with me. I'd managed to avoid it for a couple of years.
0:51.5	I don't know how, but I had. But my voice is definitely back now and I'm
0:56.7	shouting louder and louder. So if you're not following me on Instagram or Facebook,

1:35.3	So when I tell you this, I want you to pause the podcast, go and do it and then come back

1:40.4	And I'll remind you at the end as well.
1:42.4	But if you're listening to this on my regular Tuesday,
1:45.3	this will be the 1st of November, 2022. Well, this Sunday on the 6th of November, I'm going to be
1:53.1	hosting a live masterclass. Now, it's at 8 o'clock UK time, which is then 3 o'clock Eastern time and 12 o'clock Pacific.
