Summary
In this Survivor Stories episode, you’ll meet Sarada Rao, a Narcissistic Abuse Survivor and one of my students in my Accredited Narcissistic Trauma Informed Coaching Certification who is driven to help women from the South Asian Community. We’ll discover how Sarada is turning her pain and struggle into her purpose and strength to help women from the South East Asian community to recognise narcissistic abuse and recover from it.
What you will learn in this episode:
- Sarada’s story of recovery from narcissistic parents to an arranged marriage with a narcissist
- How the South East Asian culture creates abuse and narcissism
- What post-separation abuse is and how to deal with it
Sarada discusses how she discovered what narcissism is after a childhood of narcissistic abuse from her parents which led to an arranged marriage with a narcissist. Then throughout the episode, we’ll see where Sarada is now, so that women, especially those from the South East Asian community, can see what the light at the end of the tunnel can look like in terms of recovery from narcissistic abuse.

| 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. Hi, everybody. A massive warm welcome to the |
| 0:30.4 | narcissistic trauma recovery podcast. It's always such a pleasure to have you with me on this |
| 0:36.1 | because as you know, it's something I feel |

| 1:40.3 | listening to this six months down the line, she'll probably be qualified and she'll be able to |
| 1:43.3 | help you, which she can do now anyway. |
| 1:45.7 | But I'd really love to introduce you to Shata Rao, an incredible student on my program and a survivor of narcissistic abuse. |
| 1:53.4 | I don't like to use the word victim because she's a survivor and she is turning her pain and struggle into her purpose and strength to help women from the |
