Unchained: A Journey to Rise, Heal, and Reclaim Life After Narcissistic Abuse

In this powerful episode of The Empowered Grief Journey, I’m joined by Anni Neill — survivor, author, and advocate for women healing from narcissistic abuse. Anni courageously shares her story of breaking free from a toxic marriage rooted in control, manipulation, and financial abuse.

Together, we explore how narcissists use gaslighting, shame, and power to keep their partners trapped — and what it truly takes to rebuild trust in yourself after emotional trauma. Anni shares the grief of not only losing the relationship, but also the version of herself that endured it.

Now an author and educator, she’s turned her pain into purpose, helping women recognize red flags, reclaim their voice, and rise into lives of freedom and fulfillment.
