Two Queens And A Joker: My Narcissist's Ex And Me
Two Queens and a Joker: My Narcissist’s Ex and Me is a bold and deeply personal podcast where two women, both survivors of the same narcissistic partner, come together to share their stories, break the silence, and heal out loud.
As parents to children with the same man, we unpack the chaos, confusion, and emotional damage of narcissistic abuse and the powerful friendship and growth that came from our shared truth.
With raw conversations, expert insights, and heartfelt support, this podcast is for anyone who’s been gaslit, discarded, trauma-bonded, or left wondering, “Was it really that bad?”
We’re here to say: yes, it was. But you’re not alone and healing is not only possible, it’s your right.
Moving forward requires breaking free from old patterns and healing is a gradual process that takes time and self-reflection. We'll get there.
Narcissistic abuse leaves deep imprints on trust, relationships, and identity. Survivors often feel reclusive, anxious, and hypervigilant. But healing is possible. By rebuilding self-trust, noticing patterns, and taking small, steady steps toward connection, survivors can slowly allow safe people back into their lives.
The scars remain, but they don’t define the future. Survivors are not broken, they are rebuilding.
We specialize in helping survivors untangle the patterns of narcissistic abuse and recover their sense of self. Learn more at www.narctrauma.com.

The Neuroscience of Narcissism: Understanding Their Lack of Empathy
In this episode of Two Queens and a Joker: My Narcissist's Ex and Me, Brenda and Sara explore the neuroscience of narcissism, exploring how the brain's wiring affects empathy and emotional connection. They discuss the differences between feeling and thinking empathy, the implications for survivors of narcissistic abuse, and the potential for healing through understanding and therapy. The conversation emphasizes that while narcissists may have a different brain structure, it does not absolve them of responsibility for their actions. The episode aims to empower survivors by reinforcing that their experiences are valid and not a reflection of their worth.
