Overview

Broken Mirrors: Narcissistically Injured Children Becoming Adults By Dr. Godbless Akaighe What happens when the mirror of childhood reflects distortion instead of love? When praise becomes pressure, neglect becomes normal, and identity fractures under the weight of unmet emotional needs? Broken Mirrors is a powerful exploration of these silent wounds; narcissistic injuries and their lifelong impact. Drawing from personal experience and years of research in work psychology and leadership, Dr. Akaighe takes readers on a journey through the hidden corridors of emotional trauma. This book is not just theory; it is lived reality, woven with stories, insights, and practical strategies for healing. Inside, you'll discover: What narcissistic injury really is and why it matters. How childhood experiences of neglect, overindulgence, or conditional love shape adult identity. The confusion of emotional messaging: wounded or spoiled? Why distorted reflections of self lead to shame, false identities, and relentless validation-seeking. How these wounds echo in adulthood, affecting relationships, parenting, and even leadership. The toxic dynamics of narcissistic leaders and teammates in workplaces. Practical pathways to healing: emotional literacy, self-compassion, forgiveness, and boundary-setting. Structured in three parts: Understanding the Wound, Adult Echoes of Childhood Injury, and Pathways to Healing, this book offers clarity and hope. It dismantles myths like the ""lucky child"" and challenges cultural narratives that normalize emotional neglect. Each chapter invites reflection, offering exercises, journaling prompts, and resources for therapy and support. Whether you are a survivor seeking healing, a parent striving to break generational cycles, or a leader aiming to understand the human side of management, Broken Mirrors provides tools to reclaim authenticity and emotional freedom. It is a call to awareness, resilience, and transformation. Why read this book? Because emotional wounds don't disappear, they echo. They shape how we love, lead, and live. But healing is possible. Through self-awareness, intentional practices, and supportive communities, you can rebuild the mirror and restore the self. Includes: Reflective exercises and journaling prompts. Recommended reading and therapy resources. Invitation to join the TechEdu Solution Limited Mentorship and Counselling Programme for deeper support. If you've ever felt unseen, struggled with shame, or wondered why success feels hollow, this book is for you. It's time to break the silence, confront the wound, and live beyond the injury.
