About this episode

🎙️ This episode of "I Wish You Knew" tackles a complex guest: a diagnosed, self-aware narcissist. Host Adam Lane Smith, the attachment specialist, and co-host Andrey Korikov, CEO and co-founder of Veritas Creative, peel back the layers of narcissism.

 

Along with special guest Lee Hammock, they explore the rarely discussed world and mind of a narcissist. You'll hear firsthand how he navigates life, relationships, and therapy. Join us as we challenge the stereotypes and uncover the surprising truths behind this often stigmatized personality disorder. 

 

This episode is a must-listen for anyone who's ever loved (or been frustrated by) someone with narcissistic tendencies.

👉 The greatest fear for people with NPD and what their worst nightmare is.

👉 The common, as well as covert, manipulation tactics a narcissist uses to control people.

👉 How a narcissist can manage their condition, especially during challenging life events.

👉 The impact of narcissism on relationships and families, due to their inability to relate to others.

👉 The implications of labeling people with psychological terms without proper diagnosis.

 

Get ready to confront hidden truths, explore the potential for change, and challenge your understanding of manipulation and self-acceptance. It's a wild ride you won't want to miss! 🎧
