The Golden Child Brother
It all begins with an idea.
Story Snippet:
He could do no wrong. While I was scrutinized, he was exalted. Every mistake I made was weaponized against me—but his were excused or hidden. I wasn't the sibling. I was the scapegoat.
🧠 Spot the Traits: Triangulation, comparison, favoritism
🪞 Reflection Prompt:
What role did I play in my family dynamic, and how did it shape my self-worth?
🔐 Affirmation:
"I am no longer defined by the roles others forced on me. I am free to be whole."
The Broken Bridge
It all begins with an idea.
"My cousins and brothers became echoes of my father."
They learned by watching him—not loving, just surviving. I saw the cycle: emotional avoidance, cheating, ghosting, controlling women to feel powerful. The same wounds passed down like family heirlooms, wrapped in silence and labeled “manhood.” The bridge between the mother and father wound lived in them. But I walked away.
🧠 Narc Traits:
Emotional avoidance, ghosting, controlling behavior, denial of accountability.
🌺 Chakra Focus: Heart & Solar Plexus
🪞Journal Prompt:
How did my male relatives treat the women in their lives?
Where have I repeated or accepted this treatment?
What does healthy masculinity look like to me?
✨ Affirmation:

Fight response, distrust in men, internalized abandonment.
🕯 Symbolic Quote:
“You cannot heal in the same place that cut you.”
The Predator in the Family
It all begins with an idea.
"My uncle took graduation pictures that made my skin crawl."
He watched me too closely. He complimented the wrong things. Then he vanished—left the country to escape accountability. He taught me that not all predators are strangers. And not all families protect you. He chose whiteness, distance, and power over accountability. That pattern didn’t begin with him, but it ends with me.
🧠 Narc Traits:
Predatory behavior, sexual boundary violation, deflection, generational trauma, racial self-hate.
🌺 Chakra Focus: Sacral

When was my body’s "no" louder than anyone’s words?

How did my family react when I spoke up (or didn’t)?
✨ Affirmation:
“My body is sacred. My boundaries are law.”
🧬 Nervous System Impact:
Freeze response, disassociation, deep sacral trauma.
🕯 Symbolic Quote:
“Family is not a free pass to harm.”
The Father Wound Begins
It all begins with an idea.
"My father resented my light, so he dimmed it."
Caribbean men don’t show emotion—that’s what they told me. But what I learned was this: his silence was punishment, his abandonment was power. He withheld love and presence to remain in control. Praise for me made him quiet. I was the reflection of his unlived dreams, and that made me his target.
🧠 Narc Traits:
Emotional neglect, conditional attention, jealousy masked as "tough love."
🌺 Chakra Focus: Solar Plexus & Throat
🪞Journal Prompt:
What did I crave most from my father that I never received?
How did his absence shape my view of love?
Who did I try to become to earn his attention?
✨ Affirmation:
“I no longer chase love—I embody it.”
🧬 Nervous System Impact:
Suppressed voice, overachievement, approval-seeking in relationships.
🕯 Symbolic Quote:
“A father’s silence becomes a daughter’s self-doubt—until she breaks the cycle.”
Sisters by Blood, Saboteurs by Choice
It all begins with an idea.
"She gave birth on my birthday. Twice."
My sister gave birth to her daughter on my birthday—and her best friend (my son's godmother) gave birth to her second daughter on my son's birthday. Coincidence? Or karmic sabotage dressed as celebration? They tried to eclipse my light by replicating my timeline. But spiritual jealousy wears many masks. I was never meant to compete—only to break the curse.
🧠 Narc Traits:
Mirroring to manipulate, obsession, envy masked as sisterhood, triangulation through children.
🌺 Chakra Focus: Solar Plexus
🪞Journal Prompt:
When did I realize she was copying me, not supporting me?
What was I taught about family loyalty vs self-protection?
Do I believe I deserve to shine?
✨ Affirmation:
“I do not shrink to make others comfortable. I was born to radiate.”
🧬 Nervous System Impact:
Hypervigilance, comparison paralysis, identity confusion.
🕯 Symbolic Quote:
“Birds of the same feather flock together—but I was born to fly alone.”
The Maternal Mirror (Part II)
It all begins with an idea.
"She always looked sad when I was smiling."
Her sympathy was performative. Her pain was louder than my joy. She wanted me to heal her, to parent her, to stay small enough that she could still feel big. When my knees began hurting in real life, I discovered Louise Hay’s message: “Knees represent pride and ego.” I was carrying her pride… and it was breaking me down.
🧠 Narc Traits:
Covert narcissism, guilt projection, energy vampirism, forced caretaking, competition with one’s own child.
🌺 Chakra Focus: Root & Heart
🪞Journal Prompt:
When did I first feel like I was "too much" for my mother?
What pride or burden have I carried that wasn't mine?
What would my inner child say to her?
✨ Affirmation:
“I release inherited shame and reclaim the joy that was always mine.”
🧬 Nervous System Impact:
Chronic anxiety, knee pain, freeze response when receiving attention.
🕯 Symbolic Quote:
“Your pain is not my prophecy.”

The Mother Wound
It all begins with an idea.
Narc Type: Covert Maternal Narcissist
Traits: Guilt tripping, triangulation, financial sabotage, stolen identity
Story Snippet: She gave birth to me on the same day she lost her son. I spent my life trying to make up for a child I never knew. Her love felt conditional—punishment for being a reminder.
