About this Event
Event Description:
Join us for "Break the Silence: Voices of Narcissistic Abuse," a listening event organized by The Brave Women's Community Center. This event focuses on the complex and often subtle dynamics of narcissistic abuse—a form of psychological manipulation that leaves many survivors without visible scars but profound emotional impacts.
Why This Focus:
Narcissistic abuse can infiltrate any relationship—be it with family, friends, coworkers, or romantic partners. Its signs are not always obvious, and its effects can be deeply damaging. Survivors often struggle with eroded self-esteem, persistent self-doubt from gaslighting, and a warped sense of self-worth, believing the debilitating lies told by their abusers.
Event Purpose:
Our goal is to shed light on this pervasive yet underrecognized form of abuse. We aim to provide survivors a platform to share their experiences and foster a deeper understanding within the community about the real-life implications of such relationships.
Participant Experience:
The evening will be an intimate gathering, where attending in pajamas is encouraged to create a cozy, safe atmosphere. We will listen to audio stories from survivors, offering a window into their journeys of endurance and healing. Following the listening session, the floor will open for a guided discussion, allowing for reflection, bonding, and creative expression through journaling and art.
This event is designed not just to discuss abuse but to cultivate a supportive community, empower attendees, and affirm a collective commitment to recognizing and confronting these hidden dynamics.
Community Impact:
By coming together, we hope to foster a supportive, non-judgmental environment where all attendees, whether directly affected by narcissistic abuse or not, can gain insight, find solidarity, and feel empowered to advocate for healthier relationships in all areas of their lives.
Join us on April 17th to be part of a nurturing community eager to support, learn, and grow together in understanding and resilience.
