Life after Narcissists

Life After Narcissists: It’s Time to Be Happy Again is a compassionate and deeply grounded guide for women who have lived through confusing, diminishing, or quietly humiliating relationships and are seeking clarity, understanding, and genuine recovery.

Many women sense that something was not right in a personal, family, or workplace relationship long before they have the language to name it. This book speaks to that experience. It explores both subtle and overt patterns of narcissistic behaviour, the psychological and physiological impact of these dynamics, and why leaving such relationships is often far more complex than it appears from the outside.

Blending lived experience with decades of professional expertise, Tracey-Lee Hogan offers a trauma-informed pathway through recognition, understanding, and healing. The first part of the book shares her own raw and honest story, alongside composite portraits of women from very different backgrounds who encountered remarkably similar relational patterns. These narratives reflect the confusion, self-doubt, and erosion of trust that often develop over time.
