The Growth Digest

Taking your personal growth journey to the next level with the best stories from E.B. Johnson.

Back! Back! Back again!

It’s me, your favorite neighborhood NLPMP, top writer, and narcissistic relationships and abuse recovery expert.

Quite the mouthful ain’t it?

I get to say that quirky little phrase every single day over on TikTok, where I’ve found a huge and active community of readers, listeners, and survivors who are doing the work to improve their lives and find peace.

As a matter of fact, that platform has been keeping me majorly busy these days. Since going viral (not once, not twice, but 4x!!) I’ve been coaching new clients and creating incredible new content that is helping people heal.

Want to get in on the action?

The best places for you to find me are:

There’s an all-new Recovery Lab coming this Saturday, and the topic is HOT. We’re going to break down what it means to be narcissistically abused, and what it means to heal.

It’s all well-and-good to talk about the necessity of no-contact, but that’s not always an option for everyone in a narcissistic relationship.

Sometimes you have to co-parent with the person who is making your life a living hell. Or maybe you’re trapped with them and financially dependent. You may even rely on them for food and shelter to survive.

Do you ever look around in awe at the insanity around you? We are living through wild times, and it can feel like the very air is charged with emotion sometimes.

That’s because we’re living at the height of emotional contagion.
