How to Heal from Internalized Narcissism and Reclaim Your Pleasure
Shame has long been one of the most powerful tools of control — keeping women small, silent, and disconnected from their bodies across generations. In this episode, Eve sits down with Emma Lyons, founder of Trauma Matrix, to explore how shame shows up, why it’s deeply tied to patriarchy and narcissistic systems, and how to finally break up with your inner narcissist.
Together, they unpack how shame infiltrates our nervous systems, fuels self-sabotage, and contributes to mental, emotional, and physical illness. You’ll discover a step-by-step system called BREAK to interrupt the shame trance, reclaim your sovereignty, and live without shame.
If you’ve ever struggled with negative self-talk, perfectionism, or the burden of cultural conditioning, this episode shows you how to see shame for what it is — a lie you no longer have to carry.
