In this episode, Dr. Anthony Mazzella and Jin unpack the cult-like dynamics of narcissistic relationships—and the emotional aftermath survivors face. From trauma bonds and identity loss to the inner voice of the narcissist that lingers long after they’re gone, this conversation explores what it really takes to break free. If you’ve ever wondered why walking away doesn’t always feel like freedom, this conversation reveals the hidden chains—and how to finally break them.
