Advertise on podcast: The Scapegoat Coach With Art Florentyna

👉 For a chat with me, you can find my info at https://artflorentyna.com/work-with-a...In this video, I share my own story, growing up in a home where abuse was hidden under a mask of concern and self-pity, where I was punished for setting boundaries, and where healing meant being disowned. I speak about the kind of grief that nobody sees : the grief of the family scapegoat. From childhood, the scapegoat’s pain is dismissed, minimized, or turned against them. Their feelings are inconvenient, their truth a threat.This is about what happens when accountability is replaced with pity, when the abuser’s story matters more than the damage they cause, and when the child who suffered becomes ostracized for their trauma.But it’s also about survival , the strength it takes to see the truth, to walk away, and to rebuild a life free from the roles we were forced to play.

👉 For a chat with me, you can find my info at https://artflorentyna.com/work-with-a...They’ll tell you that you were never abused.That you were "too sensitive", "too dramatic", "crazy", "the problem".And yet, deep down, you know something isn’t right.In this video, I talk about what really happens when you grow up as the scapegoat in a narcissistic or emotionally immature family.I share what it feels like to live in that twisted reality, where you’re punished for having emotions, gaslit into doubting your own memory, and blamed for everything that goes wrong.We’ll explore why narcissistic families deny abuse, how enablers protect the abuser, and what happens when the scapegoat finally goes no contact.This isn’t just about surviving, it’s about understanding the deeper psychology behind scapegoating, projection, and the emotional “logic” of evil.Most importantly, it’s about reclaiming your truth.Because your healing is the truth, and that’s something no one can take from you.🕯️ Topics covered: Why your abuser and family deny your abuseHow scapegoating forms and why it feels so "crazy-making"The role of enablers and performative empathsBreaking the "scapegoat contract"Finding peace and rebuilding your identity after going no contact💛 If this resonates, you’re not alone.
