Do you ever feel like no matter how much you explain yourself, your words just get turned against you? In this episode of Waking Up to Narcissism, Tony Overbay, LMFT, breaks down why explanations don't lead to understanding with a narcissist—or with anyone who is deeply emotionally immature. Instead, they become what Tony calls an “attack surface”: the very fuel that allows the narcissist to twist, criticize, or position themselves as the victim. Through a painfully familiar story of a wife trying to share her day and a husband who withdraws into silence, Tony unpacks: Why silence is a weapon for the narcissist—and why it spikes anxiety for the pathologically kind partner How emotionally immature people thrive on friction and conflict rather than true connection The cycle of narcissistic supply (idealization, devaluation, and discard) and how it shows up in daily interactions The difference between secure attachment and antagonistic attachment Five rules for protecting yourself and reducing “attack surfaces” in conversations If you've ever found yourself over-explaining, apologizing for things that weren't your fault, or walking on eggshells to avoid conflict, this episode will help you recognize the patterns, reclaim your emotional energy, and begin to shift the dynamic. Your kindness is a gift—but when explanations only make things worse, it's time to understand why. 00:00 Introduction and Acknowledgements 00:52 Understanding Substack and Blogging 02:11 Disclaimer and Episode Overview 02:47 Narcissism in Relationships 07:25 The Real-Life Story Begins 11:39 Analyzing the Narcissistic Behavior 19:13 Secure Attachment vs. Narcissistic Attachment 25:58 The Concept of Attack Surface 35:18 The Silent Treatment: A Narcissist's Weapon 35:51 The Parasitic Dynamic in Narcissistic Relationships 39:20 The Narcissistic Supply Cycle 43:51 Codependency and Pathological Kindness 51:41 Strategies for Dealing with Narcissists 56:05 Breaking the Cycle: Reclaiming Your Power 01:01:32 The Importance of Documentation 01:07:57 Key Takeaways and Final Thoughts Contact Tony at contact@tonyoverbay.com to learn more about his Emotional Architects men's group.

When it comes to the paranormal, I've always admired voices that balance open-mindedness with critical thinking. That's why Dr. Ciarán O'Keefe is my kind of skeptic. Known to many from BBC's Uncanny with Danny Robins, Ciarán brings scientific rigor to the mysteries of the supernatural while staying open to possibilities. In this conversation we explore: Why skepticism doesn't equal cynicism How parapsychology lost visibility in academia and media How ghost hunters can serve as “citizen scientists” by gathering useful data The enduring mystery of cold spots, EMF fluctuations, and environmental triggers Explanations beyond “ghosts are dead people,” including time slips and dimensional slips How a recent medical discovery reshaped thinking about some possession cases Ciarán's most unforgettable “head-scratching” investigation His role as the resident skeptic on Uncanny—and why he embraces being the “party pooper” Ciarán also shares details about the Uncanny: Fear of the Dark UK tour, with possible plans for a North American run in the future. This episode shows how belief and skepticism, far from being opposites, can fuel better questions and deeper insights into life's greatest mysteries. Learn more about your ad choices.

Sal and BT dissect the latest losses for the Giants and Jets, arguing that both franchises are plagued by a long-standing pattern of bad decision-making rather than a simple curse or bad luck. They criticize the Giants' handling of Eli Manning, which they believe set off a chain reaction of mistakes, and the Jets' reliance on aging, past-their-prime quarterbacks. The hosts also take aim at the NFL's broadcasting practices, specifically the "unnecessary" use of rules analysts who they say interrupt the flow of the game to state the obvious. Ultimately, they conclude that both teams are victims of their own poor management, from bad draft picks to chasing old-guard talent, and not some mystical force.

In this episode, Dr. Sam Shea discusses his work with adults on the autism spectrum, focusing on burnout, resilience, and the importance of self-care for parents. He shares insights on the challenges faced by neurodiverse individuals, the significance of proper terminology, and the concept of masking. Dr. Shea emphasizes the need for resources and support for both parents and children, and highlights the role of comedy in advocating for understanding and connection. The conversation also touches on the importance of care in relationships and the impact of coaching on personal development. Main Takeaways: Dr. Sam Shea helps adults on the spectrum stop burnout. Masking is a common experience for those on the spectrum. Self-care is crucial for parents of neurodiverse children. The term 'high functioning' can be misleading and offensive. There are many resources available for families today. Comedy can be a powerful tool for advocacy and connection. Understanding social dynamics is essential for building relationships. Coaching can provide valuable support for personal growth. Parents should prioritize sleep and wellness for their families. Leading with care is key to connecting with those on the spectrum. 3 Main Topics with Timestamps, Citations, and Explanations: 1. Energy Management is Non-Negotiable (06:42) "You can't be present, creative, or purposeful if you're running on fumes every day." Explanation: Energy is the foundation for every action and decision. Without protecting and restoring it, creativity, focus, and emotional balance erode, making it harder to sustain meaningful work or relationships. 2. The Mind-Body Connection in Healing (14:18) "Your mindset directly determines how your body responds to stress, recovery, and even food." Explanation: Beliefs and thoughts influence physical health at a cellular level. Shifting mental patterns can reduce inflammation, accelerate healing, and create the physiological environment needed for optimal performance. 3. Aligning Life with Purpose (28:54) "When your daily life reflects your values and purpose, burnout becomes nearly impossible." Explanation: Living in alignment with personal values creates natural motivation and resilience. This alignment makes challenges feel meaningful instead of draining, reducing the risk of chronic stress and burnout.

In this powerful conversation, I sit down with Dr. Corey Allan—husband, father, author, speaker, and seasoned marriage and family therapist—to unpack the truth about long-term love, personal growth, and staying connected through change. We go beyond surface-level advice to talk about what really keeps relationships alive, why personal responsibility is non-negotiable, and how to navigate shifts in yourself and your partner without losing the bond. 3 Main Takeaways: Face the relationship you have—not the one you wish you had. Personal growth will shift the relationship—be ready to adapt. Strong connections are built on presence, self-respect, and shared growth. 3 Main Topics with Timestamps, Citations, and Explanations: 1. Work with Who Your Partner Really Is (05:03) "I'm fighting for the spouse I wish I had… rather than I'm actually working with who they are." Explanation: Real progress comes when energy is spent on understanding and relating to the actual person in the relationship—flaws, strengths, and all—instead of chasing an idealized version that only exists in imagination. 2. Change in One Partner Shifts the Entire System (13:25) "One person makes a change, so it's going to impact the system… The other person is left with a couple of choices." Explanation: Every change—whether intentional growth, a lifestyle shift, or a new boundary—ripples through the relationship. How each person responds determines whether the bond strengthens, adapts, or drifts apart. 3. Presence Beats Time Quantity (33:25) "My wife benefits… from 20 minutes of a hundred percent of my presence more than she does of an hour of 50% of my presence." Explanation: Deep connection is built through focused, intentional engagement rather than simply being in the same space. Quality attention fuels emotional closeness far more than distracted time together. Connections: Sexy Marriage Radio Visit us: MarniBattista.Com Ready To Create Your Corporate Escape Plan?

Episode Introduction: In this episode, we explore how grief—often avoided, misunderstood, and pushed down—can actually become the catalyst for living fully and authentically. Dr. Michelle Petticola shares powerful insights on transforming complex grief into fuel for life's purpose. You'll discover why facing your emotions is essential, how reframing loss can shift your experience, and the hidden costs of suppressing what your heart needs to feel. 3 Main Takeaways: Surrender is the first step to transformation — Allowing emotions to flow opens the door to healing and self-discovery. Reframe grief as a measure of love — Shifting perspective transforms pain into a lasting, meaningful connection. Unprocessed grief impacts every area of life — Avoidance drains energy, creates emotional blocks, and can keep you from living true to yourself. 3 Main Topics with Timestamps, Citations, and Explanations: 1. The Power of Surrender (14:01) "You have to surrender to the experience... There's no magic pill. There is no quick formula. You have to go through the process. And it's good because when you go through the process, you transform." Explanation: Accepting and fully feeling emotions instead of resisting them prevents them from becoming trapped in the body. This openness can lead to personal breakthroughs and deeper self-awareness. 2. Reframing Loss as Love (22:32) "What if instead of looking at it that way, you look at it as your grief is a measurement of your love for this woman." Explanation: Changing the meaning you give to grief shifts the emotional experience. Viewing grief as evidence of deep love creates an empowering connection rather than a debilitating wound. 3. The Hidden Impact of Unprocessed Grief (20:24) "If you don't grieve, the emotions get stuck in your body… As soon as they start to get that relief… suddenly they have all this energy that they didn't have because… you're exhausted." Explanation: Suppressing emotions requires constant effort, which drains vitality and can manifest as physical or mental health challenges. Releasing them restores energy and emotional clarity.
