Tired of hearing everyone labeled a "narcissist"? In this episode with therapist Britt Frank, we're diving into the nuanced reality of narcissism and why this term is both overused and misunderstood.

In conversation, we tackle:

* Why labeling everyone a "narcissist" gives too many people too much credit

* The key difference between narcissism, being narcissistic, and actually having NPD

* The "Narcissist Relationship Matrix" - how narcissists create distinct categories for people in their lives

* Why confusion is the #1 sign you might be dealing with narcissism

* The difference between lying and gaslighting

* Why narcissists never truly discard their "primary source of supply"

* The empowering truth: rather than asking "why did they do that?" ask "what am I tolerating?"
