Due to the overwhelming demand for the knowledge in Don’t Let Their Crazy Make You Crazy, How to stay sane and strong when the narcissist in your life is trying to control or abuse you, in this podcast I will be discussing tools and strategies from the book. There are several individuals who have reached out to me who are in need of counseling or phone advice appointments, yet cannot afford it. Additionally, there are some persons who cannot purchase the book for fear of their controllers or abusers finding the material. I believe this knowledge needs to be made available to whomever may need it, thus the launch of the podcast.
The Help! I Have a Narcissist In My Life podcast has been an eye-opening and impactful resource for me in my journey of healing and growth. As a patient of the host, Laurel Slade-Waggoner, and a reader of her book, I have found her insights and story to be invaluable. Her words have resonated deeply with me, and I am forever grateful that God put her in my path. This podcast has truly been a healing balm for me during my recovery from narcissistic abuse.
One of the best aspects of this podcast is how informative it is about the subject of narcissism. Many people are unaware or misunderstand narcissism, and listening to this podcast has helped me better understand what I have experienced with the narcissist in my life. It reaffirms the actions I have taken in setting boundaries and growing as an individual. The knowledge shared in this podcast has given me a sense of clarity and peace that I have not experienced before.
Another great aspect of this podcast is its ability to make you feel validated and understood. It reminds listeners that they are not crazy for feeling the way they do when dealing with a narcissist. It provides a sense of empowerment by teaching effective strategies for engaging with narcissists while protecting one's own well-being. The host's biblical wisdom, knowledge, and personal experience with narcissistic personality disorder (NPD) add depth to each episode and make it relatable to anyone going through similar struggles.
In terms of weaknesses, there are very few negative aspects to mention about this podcast. However, if there was one critique, it would be that some episodes may feel repetitive or redundant for those who have listened to multiple episodes. While repetition can sometimes reinforce important concepts, it could potentially become slightly monotonous after a while.
In conclusion, The Help! I Have a Narcissist In My Life podcast has had a profound impact on my life. It has provided me with valuable knowledge, practical strategies, and a sense of validation and empowerment. I highly recommend this podcast to anyone dealing with a narcissist in their life or seeking to better understand narcissism. It is an incredible resource that will guide you towards healing, growth, and freedom from the toxic influence of narcissistic individuals.
In this powerful and truth-packed episode, Laurel Slade-Waggoner sits down with longtime friend and fellow counselor, Dr. David Clarke, to tackle some of the most common (and painful) questions they receive from those in narcissistic relationships. They discuss how narcissists manipulate, gaslight, and keep their victims trapped—and why so many women ask, “Am I the narcissist?” (Hint: you're not!). Dr. Clarke shares his wisdom on righteous anger, trauma bonding, biblical reasons for divorce, why narcissists don't change, and how to protect your kids from their destructive influence. Whether you're navigating a narcissistic spouse, co-parent, or family member, this episode is packed with clarity, validation, humor, and hope.

Unconditional Love and Unconditional Support- They are not one and the same Narcissists can be extremely charming, nice, apologetic, and cooperative- as long as circumstances and other people are providing them with exactly what they believe they are entitled to, without any conditions. Through my years of counseling, I have met with hundreds of clinically narcissistic, Biblically foolish individuals who were masters at articulating false narratives of wanting to work on themselves and their relationships, who were experts at feigning contrition, who were pros at pretending to be repentent, changed people during their relationship counseling sessions, or who were whizzes at convincing others that they were helpless, powerless victims of circumstance. Listen and learn how to tell the difference between unconditional love and unconditional support. Thanks for listening!
