Sucky Trait #1: Narcissists are Emotionally Blind
Narcissists might act like they know exactly what you think and feel but its a bunch of crap. They just project their emotionally immature version of reality onto you. They are literally clueless about how to tap into the perspective or feelings of anyone around them. This means they are emotionally blind to all of the things that you can clearly see.
Your Bad-Ass Superpower #1: You are Empathetic!
You, on the other hand, are like a feelings detective, rocking the superpower of empathy. It's like having a magical connection with other people's emotions, you have so much more power than you may realize. Unlike your narcissistic parent who is only capable of knowing the void that is within them, you are able to see multiple perspectives, feel numerous emotions and see through the lens of another person. Sounds pretty bad-ass to me!
Sucky Trait #2: Narcissists Work Alone
Narcissists are like superheroes who only want to save the day by themselves – no sidekicks allowed! They suck the life out of everyone around them and turn everything into something about them. If we were to just go with the Batman theme, your narcissistic parent would be The Joker.
They have no idea how to problem solve, work well with others, collaborate and the idea of team work is a completely foreign concept.
Your Bad-Ass Superpower #2:
But you? You're f&cking Batman. You are bad-ass and like to work with others in Gotham City to save it from evil crooks like Joker. You rock at collaborating, problem solving and it’s easy for you to be a part of a team.
You're the superhero everyone wants on their team! Teamwork makes the dream work, and you're the dream team captain!

Sucky Trait #3: Narcissists Hate Self Improvement
Narcissists avoid looking in the mirror of self-improvement because, well, it's kinda scary for them.
In their mind, the problem is NEVER them or their behavior so there is no need for improvement because they are already perfect. Dumb rationality I know but it’s the truth. They stay the same and are incapable of self awareness or reflection - therefore they can’t change.
They are emotionally stunted.
Your Bad-Ass Superpower #3: You Look for Opportunities to Grow!
But for you, it's like looking in a superhero mirror that shows your amazing potential. You embrace opportunities for improvement and growth. You aren’t afraid of learning about your flaws or ways that you can improve. In fact, you absolutely kick-ass at this so much that sometimes it might be hard to for you NOT be working on self improvement (I get it, me too:).
The sky is the limit on your ability to change, heal and grow. That is incredibly exciting! This is how you can begin to embrace your bad-assery and stop allowing your narcissistic parent to brainwash you into thinking you are powerless.
They likely know how POWERFUL you are, which terrifies them.
So, my awesome friends, remember that no matter how much abuse you’ve endured or what you have experienced, you deserve to know the truth about yourself. You deserve to know how incredibly powerful you really are.
Remember, the Joker is just that…a big joke.
With your super empathy, teamwork magic, and your thirst for personal growth - you're a force to be reckoned with!
You are so much more powerful than you may think!
Cheers to your bad-assery,
Evelyn
