Summary

If you have been raised by an emotionally absent or narcissistic mother, you were denied the healthy and necessary attachment to nurturing energy you needed in order to feel safe, as well as secure in this world. A narcissistic mother is unable to teach you how to love the self and so therefore, it must become your quest to heal from this wound if you are to live a fulfilled, purposeful, and empowered life.  Join Lisa A. Romano for her next SELF TRANSFORMATIVE Breakthrough Program. Work with her and her life coaches LIVE for 12 Weeks and learn what only someone who has experience can teach you about healing from codependency and narcissistic abuse.
