For decades, I lived in the shadows, hidden behind someone else's demands, needs, and expectations. I thought that if I gave enough, stayed quiet enough, and loved hard enough, things would get better. Instead, I lost myself piece by piece, until the woman I once was felt like a distant memory.

This is my story, a raw, unflinching account of life with a narcissist. It's a story of manipulation, control, and walking on eggshells. But it's also a story of rediscovery, resilience, and reclaiming the light that was always mine to begin with.

In The Spotlight Was Never Mine, I pull back the curtain on the complexities of living with a narcissist. From the moments of love-bombing that drew me in to the gaslighting, silent treatments, and blame-shifting that nearly broke me, this book explores the reality of emotional abuse and the strength it takes to endure.

But this isn't just a story of survival, it's a story of transformation. It's about finding my voice through writing, embracing my worth, and choosing to rewrite the narrative of my life. It's about creating boundaries, finding joy in small moments, and deciding to live authentically, even in the face of adversity.

For anyone who has ever felt trapped, invisible, or powerless, The Spotlight Was Never Mine is a reminder that you are not alone. You are so much more than their reflection, and your story, your light, deserves to shine.
