WARNING: In this episode, we discuss hard hitting trauma so please be aware and make sure you are grounded listening to it. If you do relate to anything, please reach out to the relevant authorities.
We discuss:
Childhood abuse
Sexual assault
Addiction
Suicide
Prison
Domestic and narcissistic abuse
I recently had the privilege of interviewing Natalie Russell, a remarkable participant from ITV1's "My Mum, Your Dad." Her story is both powerful and inspiring. While the episode delves deep, I believe it offers valuable insights, reminding us that it's never too late to find hope.
What you will learn in this episode:
How to heal the root cause and not mask the symptoms
Ways to get out of a victim mindset and raise your self-esteem
How to heal the relationship you have with yourself
Natalie is now a commited relationship coach where she helps women increase their self-esteem, and helps them heal so that they can learn to live their best life and love again. I hope Natalie’s story helps you understand that healing is possible and that your best life is still ahead of you.

0:00.0 | Welcome to the narcissistic abused and trauma recovery podcast. I'm Caroline Strawson and I'll be sharing with you awareness, understanding and education about the devastating effects of narcissistic abuse. I've been exactly where you are right now and this podcast is a beacon of hope for you to know that you |
0:22.8 | are believed, you are seen, you are heard and you are not alone. And my hope for listening to |
0:29.6 | the podcast is it will help you move from post-traumatic stress to post-traumatic growth |
0:35.6 | after the trauma of narcissistic abuse because it is possible. |
0:40.7 | You are enough and you deserve to thrive. |
0:46.2 | Hi, my friends. |
0:47.6 | A massive welcome to the narcissistic abuse and trauma recovery podcast. |
0:51.9 | I'm really excited today because I've got an incredible interview |
0:55.7 | with a lady that I saw on TV recently who massively inspired me. And then when I went to |
1:02.1 | connect with her or over on Instagram, she was already following me as well. And I thought, |
1:06.6 | you know what? We're going to get any kindry spirits already. And this interview is with the amazing |
1:12.1 | Natalie Russell. And if you were a viewer of the recent hit show on ITV, my mum, your dad, you'll know |
1:19.7 | who I am talking about. You know, Natalie has worked really, really hard to get to where she is today. |
1:25.3 | And I know this podcast won't disappoint you. You know, she came from a |
1:28.9 | broken home. She faced a huge amount of trauma at a really young age and we'll talk about all of |
1:34.9 | that in the podcast today. So just be warned, we are going to talk about childhood sexual abuse, |
1:41.3 | talking about self-harm and suicide. So just so that you know, this is a really, |
1:45.8 | really hard-hitting podcast episode. She's experienced domestic abuse, substance abuse. |
1:51.5 | She was in prison a number of times. You know, her life was really utter chaos. And then at 22, |
1:57.2 | when she came out of prison, she found herself pregnant. And this was a real catalyst to |
2:02.9 | send her on her very own personal healing journey. Now, her journey to healing hasn't always been |
2:08.6 | plain sailing, as I'm sure many of us can agree with this. And it's been other toxic relationships |
