ABOUT STEPH ROBERTS

Steph had the good fortune to start the earliest parts of her life in a communal Christian environment. Growing up this way as a child of a single mother to three children she saw first hand the struggle of adults navigating power dynamics within the church and within smaller church groups. She noticed that adults had a tough time seeing the manipulation and duplicity that was so clear to her. In spite of or because of this she found herself on a path that connected her to a series of power struggles with narcissists at work and in romantic and family relationships.

That feeling of "having magnets in your pockets" for these kinds of people.

She was stuck and wanted to break free of her situation and the patterns. But when she finally did she saw that many women were experiencing the very same thing. She was not weird or weak; she was like hundreds of thousands of others who were hiding the truth from their friends and family and taking on the burden of the dysfunction in these relationships.
