Don’t Panic! It’s Just a Warning Light.

Join Erin and her guests, as they delve into what it means to be a child of a narcissistic parent.  Each fortnightly episode is crammed full of honesty, humour and hope.

Life sends us ‘warning lights’ from time to time. Their intended purpose is to give us a gentle nudge, reminding us that something may need a bit of attention, a tweak, a ‘topping up,’ or a few new questions answered. I try not to panic each time one appears, but I often do. When they light up on my dashboard, I speed dial the garage. However, when my heart acts as a dashboard, I ‘pull over,’ immediately addressing the doubts, the questions, the what ifs, the choices I made, the person I’ve become. 

Most days, I coast along. But, as I am a mere human, there will still be panic moments. I must remind myself that it is just a warning light. I’ve got this. 

From now on, I promise to give myself grace.
