This podcast is our observation of relationships, life, and everything in between, making life meaningful and enjoyable. The things that people tell you not to talk about, but are always worth hearing, is what we are about. It’s about leading a good life.
Enjoy our sixth episode on the Narcissist's Secrets Series. What makes narcissists most successful in the abuse of others, comes with the misunderstanding that their targets are usually very concerned with what is right and wrong. This is what the narcissist falsely advertises to charm their target and hook them in to begin with. This is what is used against the target, and will hurt and shock them the most during the devaluation and discard period. When the narcissist drops the mask and starts acting out their real self, this is what they play and manipulate with. Don't ever assume a narcissist would not do a certain act, just because you or others would not do that. There is nothing that will stop the narcissist from breaking boundaries and rules of conduct.
Continuing on in our Narcissist's Secrets Series, #5. Appearance drives the narcissist. They focus on creating an image of having personal characteristics or talents, intelligence and abilities that no one else has (in their mind). They make themselves an authority on things that would require extensive education, experience or training for anyone else. They create a false image of themselves to portray to others.
Enjoy this episode, the fourth in the series. I discuss the concept of why the narcissist doesn't want you to know that you can say no, and that is usually based on their continued attempts to control their target and target's environment, gaslight the target, to get them to refrain from their interests, hobbies, in a way to gain control of their daily lives. At the end, these abusers, if successful, can achieve an almost "slave-like" target that is 24/7 all about the narcissist, causing the target to stop talking to their family, friends, and possibly even get the target to quit their job so they become completely dependent on the narcissist.

Enjoy our second in the series of Narcissist's Secrets. In this episode, I recap a little of the prior podcast and #1, and I discuss #2. Narcissists are always looking for admiration and attention, even if it's negative. Recognize the signs of narcissism in relationships, and understand this: A relationship with a narcissist is always a threesome. There is always someone waiting in the wings with the narcissist, available for the narcissist at their convenience. It can be an enmeshed parent/family member, another close friend, or at its worst, another intimate partner.
Join me for an in-depth explanation of the first in The Narcissist's Secrets Series: The First Secret: They Really, Really Can't Do It Without You Learn about covert and overt narcissism, why they are obsessed with power and authority, why they are afraid of vulnerability, and why their fragile personality is so dependent on external factors. I discussed several traits of a narcissist's relationships: a recurrent history of turbulent interpersonal relationships, constant denial, and the persecution complex.
