She shares how narcissistic relationships follow a predictable cycle of love bombing, devaluation, and discarding that leaves survivors confused and blaming themselves. Through raw personal stories and decades of clinical research, she exposes why trying to fix or change a narcissist is a fool's errand, and introduces practical tools like the DEEP technique to protect yourself. You'll walk away understanding that the greatest defense against narcissism is radical self-acceptance and learning to spot red flags before you're in too deep.Dr. Ramani's books:Should I Stay or Should I Go?"Don't You Know Who I Am?"It's Not YouDr. Ramani's InstagramDr. Ramani's YouTube channelIn this episode you will:Discover why personality doesn't change and how narcissists are trapped in a cycle of self-loathing they project onto everyone around themUnderstand the DEEP technique that protects you from narcissistic manipulation without engaging in exhausting argumentsBreak free from the athlete's trap of believing you can fix any relationship if you just work harder at itRecognize the love bombing cycle that seduces you in the beginning and keeps you hoping things will return to how they wereMaster the difference between healthy jealousy and pathological jealousy that signals dangerous narcissistic patternsFor more information go to https://lewishowes.com/1858For more Greatness text PODCAST to +1 (614) 350-3960More SOG episodes we think you'll love:Evy Poumpouras – greatness.lnk.to/1852SCJerry Wise – greatness.lnk.to/1747SCGabor Maté – greatness.lnk.to/1849SC Get more from Lewis!

So many survivors walk into healing believing they were “codependent,” when the truth is far more compassionate and far more accurate:What you were doing wasn't codependency — it was fawning, a trauma response your nervous system used to keep you safe in an emotionally dangerous environment. In this episode, we break down the difference between fawning and codependency in a way that finally makes sense for survivors of covert narcissistic abuse. We explore why these two patterns get confused, how fawning operates as a survival mechanism, and why labeling yourself “codependent” often adds unnecessary shame to an already painful experience. You'll hear real, relatable examples that show what these behaviors look like in everyday life: saying “it's okay” when it isn't, prioritizing someone else's needs over your own, and walking on eggshells. We'll explore each scenario from both angles — the trauma-driven fawn response and the learned relational pattern of codependency — so you can see exactly where the difference lies. If you've ever blamed yourself for being “too accommodating,” “too forgiving,” or “too passive,” this episode will help you shift that lens. You were not weak. You were surviving.And now, you get to learn a new way of being where safety no longer depends on self-abandonment.

Mange som har levd tett på en narsissist – som partner, forelder eller søsken – sitter igjen med en gnagende følelse av at alt var deres feil. De tviler på seg selv, kjenner på skam, og har kanskje mistet evnen til å stole fullt på sin egen virkelighet. Konsekvensene av å ha levd med en narsissist er mange og ofte dramatiske. I denne episoden tar vi for oss hva som egentlig skjer når du lever i et system som langsomt bryter ned selvfølelsen – og hvordan du kan begynne å finne tilbake til deg selv igjen.Med inspirasjon fra Dr. Ramani Durvasula og boken It's Not You, utforsker vi:- Hvordan narsissistiske relasjoner gradvis får deg til å tvile på deg selv- Hva som kjennetegner narsissistisk atferd – og hvorfor det ikke handler om svakhet å bli fanget i den- Hvordan “narcissistic victim syndrome” kan ligne på PTSD- Trinnene i heling: å se mønsteret, skape avstand, og bygge opp igjen identitet og selvfølelse- Hvordan du setter grenser uten å bli sugd inn i dramaet- Hvordan du håndterer den emosjonelle etterklangen – skyld, lengsel, savn – med varme og egenomsorgOg til slutt noen tanker om hvordan du kan finne tilbake til deg selv, fri fra skyld og frykt - og øke din selvverdi igjen. Dette er ikke en episode om å definere deg som offer – men om å ta tilbake fortellingen om deg selv.For det er ikke deg som var ødelagt. Det var systemet du ble fanget i. Det var ikke din feil at du hadde en narsissist i livet ditt. Viktig å huske på : Du ble såret fordi du kunne elske.Du ble manipulert fordi du stolte.Du ble forvirret fordi du brydde deg.Og alt dette sier noe godt om deg – ikke dårlig.En episode for deg som vil forstå – og for deg som er klar til å helbrede.

As part of our Hidden Killers 2025 Year in Review series, we're revisiting two defining moments in the unraveling of the Adelson family empire — moments that exposed not only the legal chaos behind the Dan Markel murder case, but the chilling psychology that fueled it. In this special combined episode, Tony Brueski dissects Donna Adelson's courtroom performance of a lifetime — a bond hearing turned one-woman show where the alleged murder-for-hire mastermind painted herself as the real victim. Frail, misunderstood, and oh-so-tragically sleepless behind bars, Donna leaned hard into self-pity, deflection, and emotional theater. But beneath the trembling voice and the laundry list of ailments was something far more dangerous: covert narcissism in action. We break down the key moments from her testimony — from her evasive answers to her complete absence of remorse — and unpack how her manipulative tactics mirror the textbook behaviors of covert narcissists. Victim-playing. Reality-twisting. Emotional control disguised as vulnerability. It's not just courtroom drama — it's psychological warfare. Then, we turn to the legal front lines, where Donna's defense team fought to block over 560 pages of divorce records between her daughter Wendi Adelson and slain law professor Dan Markel. The argument? That the bitter custody battle fueling years of tension was “irrelevant.” Prosecutors, however, say it's the very foundation of motive — the powder keg that led to murder. While Donna's attorneys tried to keep the narrative tidy, the state saw through it — reminding the court that this “frail grandmother” once tried to board a one-way international flight. And as motions pile up and family ties fracture, it's becoming clear: this isn't just about one murder. It's about a legacy of manipulation, control, and denial finally colliding with accountability. From psychological breakdowns to legal takedowns, this Year in Review episode captures the full scope of the Adelson implosion — a story where justice, narcissism, and family loyalty all share the same DNA.

While Donna's attorneys tried to keep the narrative tidy, the state saw through it — reminding the court that this “frail grandmother” once tried to board a one-way international flight. And as motions pile up and family ties fracture, it's becoming clear: this isn't just about one murder. It's about a legacy of manipulation, control, and denial finally colliding with accountability. From psychological breakdowns to legal takedowns, this Year in Review episode captures the full scope of the Adelson implosion — a story where justice, narcissism, and family loyalty all share the same DNA.
3 Demonic Agendas Within the Narcissist — How They attempt to Destroy the Target and Corrupt Humanity. This video examines the three overarching demonic agendas that manifest through narcissistic people — not as clinical personality traits alone, but as spiritual strategies that seek the destruction of individuals, the erosion of communal trust, and the corrosion of the human soul. We explain how these agendas operate, how they escalate from private relationships to cultural harm, and what spiritual and practical defenses survivors can use to reclaim wholeness. #spiritual abuse #demonic agendas #narcissist soul corruptionhttps://youtu.be/nQ5yWRtGIvoA Modern Day Alchemist Recommended Book: https://amzn.eu/d/3mHrD5h

Send us a textRoberta didn't make it easy. In this episode of The Roberta Series, I share one of the hardest parts of dementia care: figuring out whether my mom was truly declining or manipulating the moment. With Mom's lifelong patterns of avoidance and manipulation, it took a lot of eyes — family, doctors, APS — to determine what was real decline. From constant cancellations to getting lost behind the wheel, this episode highlights the key signs, the medical pushback, and the moment everything became undeniable.www.dawnnewton.com
Send us a textIn this opening episode, I share the story behind The Roberta Series — why I created it, what it's about, and who it's for. When my mom, Roberta, was diagnosed with dementia, I realized how little I actually knew about the disease — beyond the basics of memory loss, confusion, and agitation. That diagnosis was the beginning of a long, eye-opening journey for our family.This series isn't just about dementia — it's about the real, messy, and complicated experience of caring for a difficult parent and trying not to lose yourself in the process. My hope is that it offers understanding, support, and maybe even a little comfort for anyone walking a similar path.Caring for someone who's nearing the end of their life — even under the best circumstances — will take a lot out of you. Especially with a difficult parent, you just want to get through it, and it's easy to feel isolated or alone. The emotions, the history, the triggers… it's a lot. This is a rough journey, and it's okay to reach out. I'd love to hear from you — your questions, your story, or just to connect.www.dawnnewton.com
Send us a textThe Roberta Series is a raw, unfiltered look at what it's really like to care for a difficult, narcissistic parent at the end of their life. It's about navigating dementia, denial, and decades of emotional complexity — all while trying to hold onto compassion and your own sense of self. My mom, Roberta, passed in 2021 from dementia. Caring for her — with my husband and brother by my side — was complicated, exhausting, and eye-opening.Months into our caregiving journey, I discovered a letter my dad wrote to her in 1965, just days before my first birthday. That letter revealed the truth about my parents' relationship: how I watched him try to make up for his past mistakes, and how my mom never let it go. It became the lens through which I could finally understand the dynamics that shaped my childhood and connected the dots on the chaos I had spent my life witnessing. My dad spent years trying to make amends. My mom never let him.Through these episodes, I'll share the stages of our journey — her diagnosis, building our care team, removing her car and cigarettes, placing her in a care facility, and ultimately navigating hospice. This isn't about bitterness — it's about truth, healing, and the messy reality of loving someone who could never love you back in the way you needed.Beneath the logistics lies a deeper truth — the balancing act between duty and resentment, compassion and boundaries, love and endurance.For anyone who has cared for a parent who is difficult, manipulative, or complicated — or is preparing for that day — this one's for you.www.dawnnewton.com
This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit stayorgo.substack.comIn today's episode, I sit down with “Olivia,” a woman I worked with one-on-one during the early days of her unraveling a 21-year marriage marked by deep narcissistic abuse. What unfolds in this conversation is one of the most raw, courageous, and unflinching portraits we've ever had on the podcast of what it means to wake up inside a marriage and realize: this isn't love. Not the kind that sees you. Not the kind that holds you.Together, we trace Olivia's journey from the exhaustion and confusion of her lowest point—when the gaslighting and emotional manipulation were so constant, she barely recognized herself anymore—to the firestorm of her divorce and, ultimately, to the quiet, grounded peace she's found on the other side.She shares what it cost her to stay: the subtle erasure of her identity, her joy, her voice. She shares the moment she realized she was no longer standing up for her kids. And perhaps most importantly, she shares how she clawed her way back—learning to borrow hope, hold boundaries, and honor the wild, beautiful pulse of her own truth.This episode is an offering for any woman who has doubted what she feels. For those who know something isn't right but can't yet name it. For those who are starting to see the cost of staying too long. If you've ever whispered to yourself, “I can't do this anymore,” let Olivia's story be a companion in the dark and a reminder: your freedom is real, and it is possible.Show Notes:Subscribe to Stay or Go on SubstackAwake - Jen HatmakerThe Let Them Theory - Mel RobbinsText 90MIN to 33777 to book a 90-Minute Session with me. ✨Text STAYORGOCOMMUNITY to 33777 to join the community. ⚡️Text EMAILME to 33777 for the free tarot guide using ChatGPT.
Get free marketing videos from Don every week at WeeklySoundbite.com Leadership success often hinges on a trait many people misunderstand: self-awareness. In today's fast-paced world, leaders are surrounded by noise: social media flattery, AI-generated validation, and constant feedback loops that create more confusion than clarity. And while confidence is essential, when it crosses into narcissism, the fallout can be devastating. Think Enron, Lehman Brothers, or any organization led by someone blind to their own flaws. Narcissistic leaders may get results, but the cost is often burnout, chaos, and shattered trust. So how do you know if you're headed down that path? And what does true, effective leadership actually look like in a world addicted to ego boosting? This week, Don and Kyle sit down with leadership advisor and former White House speechwriter Les Corba to unpack the nuances between healthy confidence and dangerous self-absorption. You'll learn how to spot narcissistic messaging, build trust, foster honest feedback, and create a culture of self-awareness, starting with yourself.
