Hosted by Dr. Michael Haggstrom → You’re not “too sensitive.” You were just trained to believe that your empathy was a problem.

Whether you were raised by a narcissistic parent, partnered with a narcissist, or worked under a controlling boss—if you’re an empath, you’ve likely been used, blamed, and made to feel like you were the issue.

But here’s the truth:
Your empathy isn’t the weakness. Your lack of skills is what made you vulnerable.

And that’s exactly what this podcast is here to change.

The SmartEmpath® Podcast is for compassionate, intuitive, and big-hearted people who are ready to heal from narcissistic abuse and finally understand what the hell happened—without losing who they are.

Each episode teaches you to:

• Identify manipulative patterns and protect yourself early
• Understand how trauma rewires your brain for guilt and silence
• Release the shame that was never yours to carry
• Speak your truth with boundaries instead of fear
• uild real emotional skills to stop being the narcissist’s supply

I’m Dr. Michael Haggstrom, and I’ve been there.
Now I’m here to guide you with everything I wish someone had told me sooner.

Because this isn’t just about surviving abuse—it’s about reclaiming your agency, your mind, and your life.

If you're tired of insight with no tools, tired of blaming yourself, and ready to finally feel sane again—you're in the right place.
