Discover the real face of narcissism and arm yourself with the knowledge to identify and break free from narcissistic abuse in our latest episode. We have the privilege of hosting licensed marriage and family therapist Natalie Jambazian, who sheds light on the traits of narcissists and the dangerous dynamics they create in relationships. From lack of empathy and pathological lying to the devastating effects of trauma bonding, Natalie offers invaluable insights and red flags to watch for, helping you recognize narcissistic behavior early and take steps to protect yourself.
This episode doesn't shy away from the harsh realities of loving a narcissist and the significant mental and physical toll this can take on victims. We dissect the manipulative tactics employed by both covert and overt narcissists, such as love bombing, devaluation, and discard, and explore how these patterns create a cycle of abuse that's incredibly hard to break. But break it you can, and we provide strategies to help you do just that, including recognizing the false hope that a narcissist will change, and the importance of understanding that the problem lies with the abuser, not the victim.
We also look at cultural and societal factors that can contribute to narcissistic tendencies, particularly in Middle Eastern and Indo-European communities. Natalie discusses the pressures and generational trauma that can foster these behaviors and offers coping strategies for those who feel trapped. From inner child work to setting non-negotiables in relationships, we chart a path to self-love and recovery. Whether you're navigating a narcissistic relationship or supporting someone who is, this episode provides a roadmap to healing and empowerment.
