Episode Overview:
In this deeply personal and insightful episode, Dr. Justine Corry shares her experience of family estrangement, reflecting on her relationship with a narcissistic mother and the impact on her life. Dr. Gemma Gladstone joins the conversation as they both discuss the psychological toll of estrangement and how schema therapy can help individuals heal and move forward.

Key Topics Covered:

The role of schemas in shaping family dynamics and coping mechanisms.
Personal reflections on living without a parent and how to navigate the associated grief and loss.
Understanding the motivations and limitations of difficult family members, including narcissistic parents.
How self-preservation and boundaries can lead to healing and healthier relationships.
